Blackmagic UltraStudio Mini Recorder 12G

UltraStudio Mini Recorder 12G brings a 12G-SDI or HDMI 2.0 source into a Thunderbolt 4 computer at up to 2160p60, covering SD and HD broadcast work as well as Ultra HD. The SDI loop output passes the incoming signal straight through, so a monitor or a second device can sit downstream of the capture without a separate distribution amplifier.

It runs on Apple silicon Macs, Windows and Linux, and takes its power from the Thunderbolt cable at 15 W. Sixteen channels of embedded audio come in on SDI and eight on HDMI, and the box ships with a welcome wallet carrying the QR code for the software download.
