HyperDeck Studio HD Mini

HyperDeck Studio HD Mini

The new compact model of HyperDeck Studio is based on the Teranex Mini form factor. This modular design means that you can use a Teranex Mini Rack Shelf to rack-mount 3 HyperDeck Studio HD Minis in a single rack unit, or you can combine them with other products such as switchers, converters, or streaming processors.

Features 3G-SDI in and out, HDMI output, dual SD card media slots, built-in sync and timecode generators, front panel controls, and both AC and DC power inputs. You can even connect the USB to a computer as HyperDeck Studio HD Mini works like a webcam so that you can use any video software.

HyperDeck Studio HD Plus

HyperDeck Studio HD Plus

HyperDeck Studio HD Plus includes all the features of the Mini model but is larger, so it has more space for extra controls and extra connections. The Plus adds 6G-SDI to record and playback ProRes up to Ultra HD 30fps, and it includes an SDI loop out and HDR support. Plus, the two 6G-SDI outputs allow fill and key playback up to 1080p60.

There is also an HDMI input and a dedicated 3G-SDI monitoring output with overlays. Any button pushed on the front panel is sent to a dedicated RS-422 remote output, and the DC power is now a broadcast-style XLR connector. The front panel is upgraded with better transport control buttons, a headphone socket, and a built-in speaker.

The HyperDeck Studio HD Pro includes all the features of the Plus model, but at a full rack width size, there’s space for more features. The larger model has space for two SSD slots but still includes the two SD card slots of the smaller models.

You can instantly move media cards between different models of HyperDeck Studio. You get the nice transport control buttons and a machined metal search dial with an electronic clutch for limiting rotation when in shuttle mode. There are also dedicated buttons for a jog, shuttle, and scroll search dial modes. The rear panel has extra space, so the timecode connections have been upgraded to XLR connectors.
