Blackmagic Design Duplicator 4K

Now you can long form record non-stop for weeks at a time, or simultaneously record to 25 SD cards so you can distribute and monetize your live production!

The Blackmagic Duplicator 4K is like two recorders in one! Featuring 25 built in SD card recorders, Blackmagic Duplicator 4K can record to all 25 cards at a time, or be changed to record to a single card at a time for long form recording. When recording to all 25 SD cards, you get a duplicator that gives you 25 x H.264 or H.265 copies that you can sell to customers the moment a live event finishes. Imagine selling your program as attendees leave concerts, training seminars, or even school events! When changed to record a single SD card at a time, Blackmagic Duplicator 4K becomes a powerful long form recorder. With 25 SD cards, you can record for weeks at a time without needing to change the cards out. You can even set Blackmagic Duplicator to automatically clear the oldest card for infinite recording, making it perfect for security and broadcast program logging.

Instantly Sell Content

The best time to sell content is right after an event when people are still excited about it! Now you can capture the enthusiasm of impulse buyers and instantly sell them a copy before they walk out the door!

Live Music

Live Confrences

Conferences and Seminars

Whether it’s a sales conference or technical seminar, attendees can leave with a copy of the day’s presentation. When the company’s international staff get back to their office, they can play it back on the big screen and share it with the team!

Sporting Events

Sporting Events

High frame rate Ultra HD 2160p60 lets coaches and athletes watch every thrilling play from the big game in incredible detail! By giving them a copy immediately after the game, they can instantly analyze and improve their performance!

Create Ultra Long Recordings

Now you can record for weeks at a time without stopping!

Broadcast Program Logging

Broadcast Program Logging

From major network broadcasters to local affiliates, everything that gets shown on air needs to be archived for future reference. Instead of large, expensive servers that require massive storage closets, you can now record archives from air onto small, regular SD cards that are easily stored on a small shelf!

Security and Surveillance

Security and Surveillance

The Blackmagic Duplicator 4K is perfect for recording directly from security cameras or cameras in situations where you can have sudden events happening that need to be captured and preserved! Even broadcasters can use this to capture sudden events that you don't want to miss. Just keep recording and if anything happens, you always have a broadcast quality H.265 or H.264 copy in perfect Ultra HD!

Next Generation Encoding

Compatible H.264 Encoding

Standard H.264 for HD playback and web delivery!

Blackmagic Duplicator 4K also features a standard realtime encoder for the older H.264 format. Even though H.265 is quickly gaining popularity, H.264 is still the world’s most common format for HD playback on big screen televisions and for web delivery. Although H.264 files are a bit larger and less efficient than H.265, it’s a format that’s compatible with billions of devices ranging from big screen televisions to web browsers and even mobile phones. With Blackmagic Duplicator 4K you have the option to choose the encoding format that works best for you!

Next Generation

Codec comparison at equal frame
rate, resolution and perceived quality

Next Generation H.265

The new standard for Ultra HD delivery!

The Blackmagic Duplicator 4K can encode video using the latest H.265, which is the new standard for Ultra HD delivery! You get realtime hardware encoding for incredible looking Ultra HD video, even at high frame rates up to 2160p60. The files are small, the image quality is incredible and the data rates are low enough to play back from standard SD card media! You can even play back Ultra HD 2160p60, which is 4 times the size of regular HD and twice the frame rate! Now you can deliver dramatically better looking video to your customers using small and affordable SD cards!

Deliver

Deliver Ultra HD

Customers can view recordings on their 4K TVs!

With 4x the resolution of regular HD, Ultra HD is the future of television! With estimates that over 80% of televisions sold worldwide are Ultra HD, that means Ultra HD is here now. The promise of Ultra HD is stunning, crystal clear images that have much better color and far more detail than regular HD. Until now, there’s been no way to deliver high quality 4K to consumer televisions. The Blackmagic Duplicator 4K lets you deliver Ultra HD content directly to your customers that they can play on their Ultra HD televisions today!


Compact Design

Compact Design

Everything you need to encode, duplicate and sell content at live events!

The Blackmagic Duplicator 4K features a realtime encoder for H.264 and H.265, along with 25 SD card recorders that are miniaturized into a single rack unit design! The machined metal design is durable, lightweight and small enough to take anywhere. That means you can duplicate content right where you’re recording and selling it! You get an attractive LCD display for status, professional broadcast connections such as 12G-SDI with loop through and RS-422 deck control so you can connect multiple units together and record more cards at the same time.

Work Solo

Work Solo

Automatically trigger recording from your camera!

Working with multiple cameras and a live production switcher is very fast and creative, however many events only require a single camera and operator. If you’re working alone, you can still produce multiple copies and sell content faster than ever before! Simply plug the SDI output from your camera into the duplicator, start shooting and the Blackmagic Duplicator 4K will automatically start encoding and making copies. The Blackmagic Duplicator 4K recognizes the SDI start/stop commands from the camera so it automatically starts and stops recording whenever you start and stop the camera!

Rapid Card Formatting

Rapid Card Formatting

Quickly format all cards without using a computer!

With the Blackmagic Duplicator 4K you can easily load and format all 25 cards from the front panel at the same time. That means you don’t have to format them one at a time on your computer! At the end of the event you can take cards out as you sell them and because the cards are re-usable, you can simply reformat and record over the unsold cards at your next event!

Create Unlimited Copies

Create Unlimited Copies

Record hundreds of copies in real time!

For larger events, you can connect multiple Blackmagic Duplicator 4Ks together and record an unlimited number of copies, all at the same time! Simply loop the RS-422 deck control and SDI video to multiple duplicators, then start recording on the first one. When you push a button on the front panel of the first unit, it sends the command out via the RS-422 remote and into all of the connected units so they all start recording simultaneously! You can set up a road case with enough duplicators to handle massive events and because the cards are re-usable, you never have to worry about wasting media because you can simply record over them again later!

Single File

Single File Recording

Easily merge multiple shots into a single file!

The Blackmagic Duplicator 4K includes a revolutionary new append record button that lets you seamlessly combine recordings from different parts of an event into a single file. For example, if you are recording events that have natural breaks, like weddings with a ceremony and reception in different locations, the Blackmagic Duplicator 4K can automatically append the recordings all into a single file. This makes it easier for guests to watch because they only have to play back a single movie!

Low Cost SD Cards

Small, Low Cost SD Cards

Readily available, super thin, inexpensive and high speed

There’s no better way to deliver content than with super small, high speed SD cards! SD cards are readily available, affordable and are compatible with computers and TVs! Plus, when it comes to packaging content quickly, they’re easy to label and put into attractive, presentable wallets that look great at point of sale. The Blackmagic Duplicator 4K records using H.264 or H.265, so you can easily fit a one hour Ultra HD program onto an inexpensive 8GB SD card. Best of all, the cards can be re-used, so the extras can be recorded over and used again at your next event!

Ultra HD Distribution

Ultra HD Distribution

No proprietary players needed!

The Blackmagic Duplicator 4K records video in an open file format using H.265, which is the new standard for Ultra HD delivery. For maximum compatibility with existing HD televisions and some computers, you can also choose to record using H.264. SD cards can contain SD, HD or Ultra HD video and work with both Mac and Windows computers. You can even use a USB adapter to plug them directly into your Ultra HD television set! Unlike proprietary disc based formats, like Blu-Ray, you don’t have to buy a slow and expensive player. The Blackmagic Duplicator 4K is the easiest, most compatible and cost effective way to distribute Ultra HD content today!
