Recording Video with HyperDeck Studio Models
Step 1. Insert your formatted SSD into either SSD slot. The slot light will illuminate green as HyperDeck
reads the disk. When the slot light goes off, HyperDeck Studio is ready to record.
Step 2. Press the INPUT button once while the stop button is illuminated. The Input button will
illuminate and you will be able to preview the video source on the LCD before recording.
If you don’t see the video you want, press INPUT again to switch inputs.
Step 3. Press the record button to start recording to the SSD instantly. A looping red light on the
SSD slot indicates the SSD is recording. During recording, you can press and hold the record
button to switch recording from one SSD to the other instantly.
Step 4. Press the Stop button to finish your recording.
If the record button flashes, this means the disk is not fast enough and recording cannot keep up. We
recommend you change to a compressed recording format such as ProRes or DNxHD, or use a faster
recommended SSD for uncompressed or Ultra HD 4K recording.
Playing Video
The controls of HyperDeck work just like a CD player, so playing back clips is simple and instantaneous.
If you play back a video clip that has an associated .MCC file, the closed caption data will be played out
with the video via the SDI output of your HyperDeck.
