Overview of the Control Panel

With traditional transport buttons such as Play, Stop, Record, Forward, and Rewind, as well as a large jog/shuttle wheel, HyperDeck Extreme Control provides users with an intuitive way to control recordings. It also features a timecode display that shows important information in real-time, which is crucial for accuracy during production. The RS-422 ports allow control of up to eight decks, enabling complex recording configurations that are common in professional environments.

Compatibility with HyperDeck Models

The control panel is fully compatible with a range of HyperDeck models, including HyperDeck Studio HD Mini, HyperDeck Extreme 4K HDR, and HyperDeck Extreme 8K HDR. This wide compatibility makes it easy for users to integrate HyperDeck Extreme Control into existing systems and workflows.

Editing and Multi-Deck Workflows

A prominent feature of HyperDeck Extreme Control is its ability to support deck-to-deck editing. This means that users can set In/Out points on one device and then start recording on another, streamlining the editing process. The system is designed to support both modern and older equipment, allowing it to handle a variety of production scenarios.

RS-422 Connection and Support for Older Decks

With eight RS-422 ports, users can control multiple decks simultaneously, including support for older tape-based systems. This provides great flexibility and allows for the integration of different types of equipment into a single workflow. The status lights on the device clearly indicate servo-lock, reference, and remote mode, making it easy to monitor the system's status.

Precision in Jog, Shuttle, and Timecode

The jog/shuttle wheel offers three different modes to give users precise control over recordings and edits. The timecode display shows real-time, servo, and reference, which is important to ensure everything is synchronized during production. To minimize mistakes, recording requires both Play and Record, further increasing the precision of the workflow.
