Key Information About the 12G?SDI 4K HyperDeck Shuttle 4K Pro Recorder/Player
- 7-inch touchscreen, large jog wheel and broadcast controls for smooth scrubbing, built-in scopes, and precise monitoring.
- Professional 12G?SDI and HDMI 2.0 connections with dedicated monitoring outputs, Tri?Sync/Black Burst reference, and timecode.
- Recording up to 4K DCI/60p in ProRes, DNxHD/HR, H.265/H.264, HD proxies, 3D LUTs, and HDR support.
- Flexible network workflows and storage via 10G Ethernet, external USB?C recording, and M.2 NVMe cache up to 16 Gb/s.
The HyperDeck Line Designed for Modern Broadcasting
Designed to integrate into broadcast control rooms and studios, the HyperDeck Shuttle 4K Pro advances the range with 12G?SDI, 4K DCI support, and advanced control tools. Compared to previous generations, it adds a large touchscreen, 10-bit scopes, 3D LUTs on the SDI monitoring output, and ultra-fast 10GbE network recording for centralized workflows.
Who and What For?
Ideal for live production, post-production, premium streaming, or playout, it targets directors, DITs, broadcast managers, and control room operators. Its low monitoring latency, universal formats, and RS?422 compatibility make it a reliable choice for capture, playback, teleprompting, and multicam media management.
Key Features for 4K Workflows
Monitoring and Control
The large 7-inch LCD displays video, audio meters, timecode, and menus, while the jog wheel and 11 front panel controls provide instant transport control. Broadcast-quality scopes (waveform, RGB parade, vectorscope, histogram) overlay with adjustable opacity, standard and HDR modes, and zoom on the vectorscope. 33-point 3D LUTs applied to the SDI monitoring output ensure accurate on-set previewing. Built-in speaker and 6.35 mm headphone output facilitate quick audio checks.
Connectivity and Synchronization
With 1 SDI input, 2 SDI outputs, 1 SDI monitoring output and loop output, plus 1 HDMI 2.0 input and output and an HDMI monitoring output, integration is immediate. Tri?Sync/Black Burst reference, timecode, and RS?422 port secure synchronization and automation in broadcast environments.
Formats, Quality, and HDR
Support for ProRes, DNxHD/HR, and H.265/H.264 covers SD up to 2160p60 in 4:2:2 YUV with REC 601/709/2020 colorimetry. HD proxies simplify offline editing, while ProRes 4444 playback with automatic fill/key routing on SDI A/B optimizes graphics workflows. HDR profiles (HLG, ST2084 up to 4000) integrate effortlessly.
Storage and Network
In addition to the SD card slot and USB?C 3.1 Gen 1 recording, an optional M.2 PCIe NVMe slot enables caching up to 16 Gb/s to prevent frame loss. The 10GbE (1000/10G BASE?T) allows network recording and remote control via the ?Blackmagic HyperDeck Ethernet Protocol? under Blackmagic OS.
