Blackmagic HyperDeck Extreme HDR User Manual HyperDeck Extreme Control Front Panel

In this section of the manual you will find detailed descriptions of all the features on your HyperDeck Extreme Control.

1 Playback and record buttons

16 numbered buttons let you select which deck is the player and which deck is the recorder. Use the M button to select multiple playback and record decks.

2 Player and Recorder buttons

Player and recorder buttons let you select your player or recorder device. Once you press the player button, the status indicators and timecode will update to reflect the deck or device selected as player.

3 Timecode Display

The timecode display will update to the connected deck when the numbered playback or record button or ‘player’ or ‘recorder’ button is selected. When a drive or tape is ejected, the timecode display will revert to the deck default, generally 00:00:00:00.

4 Search dial, indicator LEDs and mode buttons

There are three modes when using the large search dial; shuttle, jog and position. The row of LED lights will indicate the search direction depending on which mode is selected. Turn the dial left or right to fast forward or rewind.

5 Transport Controls

Traditional transport controls provide familiar playback controls including play, stop, record and edit. The skip buttons are for file based decks such as a HyperDeck recorder.

6 Timecode Entry and Trim buttons

You can select your in and out points and refine them frame by frame by using the timecode entry and trim buttons.

7 Deck status indicators

LED indicators will display the status of the deck letting you know when it is ready for playback and recording.
