The world’s most advanced broadcast decks!
The advanced design of the HyperDeck Studio family puts the powerful features of a professional grade deck into a compact size that’s only 1 rack unit high. This incredible miniaturization is made possible because HyperDeck Studio records onto inexpensive, commonly available SD cards or UHS-II cards, which are a fraction of the size of professional media used in the past. The full rack width Pro models even add dual SSD slots in addition to the SD cards, so you get 4 media slots in total! The small size, combined with dual recorders, professional connections and familiar VTR style controls let you use HyperDeck Studio in ways that are simply impossible with a larger deck!
HyperDeck Studio HD Mini
The most 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. It might be small, but you still get powerful features, such as 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 you can use any video software!

HyperDeck Studio HD Pro
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 get the nice transport control buttons as well as a machined metal search dial with electronic clutch for limiting rotation when in shuttle mode. There are also dedicated buttons for jog, shuttle and scroll search dial modes. The rear panel has extra space so the timecode connections have been upgraded to XLR connectors.

The HDMI connections and the ProRes and DNx file formats all switch between SD, HD and Ultra HD television standards. Like the other models, H.264 is included for SD and HD, but then switches to H.265 when recording in Ultra HD. Even the networking has been upgraded to 10G Ethernet for incredible speed!

Get Innovative Design Features
Broadcast Transport Controls
The transport control buttons on the front panel include standard functions for broadcast decks including record, play, fast forward, rewind, previous clip, next clip, stop and input select. These buttons have been custom designed to match traditional broadcast decks so they feel familiar to use. Plus the Blackmagic Design engineers have designed the buttons to be smooth to the touch, firm when pressed and incredibly reliable so they last for years of heavy industrial style use.
Incredible Search Dial
The search dial on the HyperDeck Studio Pro models is much more than a simple encoder, as it’s a custom design that looks elegant and it’s incredibly nice to use. The knob mechanism is a solid machined metal design so it has inertia when it’s spun, which allows the jog and scroll functions to have an old fashioned analog feel. Even the outside of the search dial has a soft rubber coating with a distinctive pattern that was researched by our engineers to create the best feel when touched. An electronic clutch is built into the search dial and used to stop the dial to show the limits of shuttle, or the media in jog and scroll. The clutch even works when scrolling to the end of menus!
Better Cooling
The new HyperDeck Studio cooling system quietly maintains an optimum operating temperature even at high video frame rates for hours of recording. Plus the cooling system uses multiple fans so each fan runs slower meaning there's less noise and less wear on the fans, ensuring a longer life. Having multiple fans adds redundancy, so if a fan should fail, the other fan will continue to operate. Each HyperDeck Studio model has a custom designed cooling duct that guides the air from one side of the unit, over the critical processing ICs and out the other side. This eliminates heat transmission to the lid, so multiple HyperDecks can be stacked in a rack.
Easy to Repair
HyperDeck recorders are designed for broadcast professionals who need to keep them operating for years. The media slots use plug in PCB assemblies so they can be replaced. If a media slot becomes worn from heavy use, or damaged due to rough use, a new SD card or SSD interface PCB can be installed. This means HyperDeck Studio is designed to be able to replace the key mechanical wear part in the design so you can keep it running reliably for many years. Any qualified service technician will find it extremely easy to remove the HyperDeck lid and plug in a new media interface card!
Redundant Power
The miniaturized design of HyperDeck Studio Mini includes a built in power supply so you don’t have to carry around an external power brick! Simply plug it into an AC mains outlet and start recording and playing back video. With an auto switching international power supply that works with 100-240V AC, you can use it anywhere in the world! All models of HyperDeck Studio include both AC and DC power connections. The HyperDeck Studio HD Mini model has a 12V DC power input with locking connector and all other models have a broadcast style 4 pin XLR 12V DC power connection. The HyperDeck Studio 4K Pro has two separate AC power supplies for total redundancy.
Rack Mountable
The HyperDeck Studio HD Mini model is only one third of a rack unit wide and the HyperDeck Studio HD Plus model is one half of a rack unit wide, so this means you can fit multiple channels in a single rack unit. The Blackmagic Universal Rack Shelf lets you mount these HyperDeck models into a whole rack assembly before bolting it into an equipment rack. Based on their size, you get 3 channels of recording per rack unit using HyperDeck Studio HD Mini or 2 channels per rack unit with the HyperDeck Studio HD Plus. That’s better for redundancy because each unit has its own power supply, LCD and controls. You can even combine gear such as analog converters or an ATEM Television Studio HD switcher!
