2 Soft Touch Buttons

The front panel features 7 soft touch buttons so you can quickly access traditional transport controls or apply LUTs. Each button is backlit when the unit is powered so you can easily see the buttons when the unit is installed in low light conditions, such as a dubbing facility.

	If you are using a RS-422 device to control playback and recording remotely, press the ‘rem’ button. This will allow the your HyperDeck to be controlled externally from a device such as the HyperDeck Extreme Control or the HyperDeck Ethernet Protocol. The button will illuminate to indicate the remote feature is active. The button will also flash when the ‘identify HyperDeck’ checkbox is selected in HyperDeck Setup.
	The five transport control buttons including the most commonly used functions for recording and playback; record, stop, play, fast forward and rewind. Use these buttons for immediate control over the record and playback functions. When active the selected button will illuminate.
	3D LUT lets you toggle the active display LUT on the HDR LCD display. The button will illuminate when active. For more information on LUTs, including how to set your LUT and display it on the LCD and or monitor out, see the ‘LUTS’ section later in this manual.
