HyperDeck Studio

That is very unfortunate, because you could connect a Adrienne AEC-uBox to the RS422 serial connector and feed LTC to the deck. I need 8 ISO recorders and this would work great, but I need sync’ed timecode. Maybe AJA will make a rack version of the KiPro.

we use an Alpermann TC-30 SI which reads a RS422 connection between a controller (edit controller) and the HyperDeck Studio and converts RS422 Timecodes into pretty nice LTC signal.

The other cheap way to control 6 HyperDecks is an 3 dual port RS422 Serial USB converter (Exsys from Ebay, 25,- € each…) and a software called V-Control (https://www.vman.cc) This software can control more than six RS422 ports, Routers (Videohubs), Mixers, etc…

You can define Scipts or Macros to control it… There is a free version for testing available.

Cheers.

Hello Gunter,

I have an ATEM 1 Switcher and 4 Hyperdeck Studio in a OB van.

Need to synchronize timecode, You said that connecting the TC 30 si by the 422 port that will generate LTC on the hyperdeck studio? What more do i need to synchronize all 4 hyperdeck?

Thank you

Sory Kevin,

I didn´t understud.

[Maros Cukan]

you hve to embeded timecode to one of audio track,and in postproduction for example in avid have to rad timecode from audiotrack

[Ricardo Couto]

Does ir work also in FCP?

Is there nay way to input timecode by the 422 port?

I can vouch that the Adrienne ubox-2 route does not work. I purchased 5 hyperdecks and 5 ubox units on the basis that BME said they would support timecode over RS422. It seems in the latest software that only RP188 is supported. Come on BlackMagic! I have 5 decks in a multicam situation that I can’t lock together. The manual even says it can support timecode over RS422 but no matter of button pushing or different cables will make it work. The embedded audio option is extremely expensive when you’ve got to buy an embedder for 5 decks. What say you Black magic?

When you set the Hyperdecks with the new software of feb.6 to follow the TC of the camera’s and than before production set all you camera’s sync free run (Sony does it with the small remote and all my camera’s answer to it), when you now start the recorder to record, it automaticly gets the camera’s TC, everytime you pusch the rec button and like this, all the decks are in sync.
