Multibridge Pro is an advanced editing system that instantly transforms into a broadcast video converter. With SDI, HDMI and analogue video inputs and outputs, multi channel audio and 3 Gb/s SDI, Multibridge Pro is an industrial strength solution for broadcast and post production in SD, HD video and 2K film.
Connect to Anything
Multibridge Pro connects to SDI, HDMI, component analogue, NTSC/PAL and S-Video for capture and playback, with instant switching between SD, HD and 2K. Multibridge Pro also features 8 channels of XLR AES/EBU audio in and out and 2 channels of XLR professional analogue audio in and out. Work with the widest range of equipment, such as Betacam SP, HD set top boxes, HDV cameras, Digital Betacam, HDCAM, HD-D5, HDCAM SR, audio mixers and more.
Advanced 3 Gb/s SDI Technology
With the exciting new 3 Gb/s SDI connections built in, Multibridge Pro allows twice the SDI data rate than normal HD-SDI. Use 3 Gb/s SDI for 4:4:4 HD with a single BNC connection, or use Blackmagic Design's new 2K via SDI for high resolution real time 2048 x 1556 feature film editing. Only 3 Gb/s SDI technology provides full compatibility with SD, HD and 2K, in 4:4:4 or 4:2:2, all with a single BNC cable.
World's Highest Quality
Multibridge Pro is the first solution to include 3 Gb/s SDI allowing native 2K editing, while retaining full compatibility with HD-SDI and SD-SDI equipment. Multibridge Pro features incredible quality Dual Link 4:4:4 SDI and Single Link 4:2:2/4:4:4 SDI in 8 and 10 bit. Use Dual Link 4:4:4 for connecting to decks such as the Sony HDCAM SR.
Enhanced Audio Connectivity
Multibridge Pro features 8 individual channels of AES/EBU digital audio in and out with sample rate conversion on each input, plus 2 channels of XLR professional analogue audio in and out. 2 channel RCA audio outputs are also included for low cost HiFi monitoring.
High Speed PCI Express Connection
Multibridge Pro's super fast 10 Gb/s connection plugs directly into the computer's motherboard. Unlike FireWire, PCI Express doesn't suffer latency or require any video compression, so you get a fast-acting and fluid editing experience at the highest video quality.
Microsoft Windows or Apple Mac OS X
Use your favourite video software such as Final Cut Pro™, Premiere Pro™, After Effects™, Photoshop™, Combustion™, Fusion™ and many more. Multibridge Pro works in Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Vista and Mac OS X systems. Instantly switch between 2K, 1080 HD, 720 HD, NTSC and PAL for worldwide compatibility.
4 Lane PCI Express
Multibridge
includes a 4 lane PCI Express Adapter and 4 Lane PCI Express connection
cable so you get the speed for all video formats.
Capture Gamma Tables
Capture video direct from log video sources by using custom gamma
tables loaded into the DeckLink system preference. DeckLink
uses the same gamma table technology and file format as the popular
HDLink
Pro DVI converter, so you can reuse your custom gamma tables
facility wide. You can even customize lift, gain and gamma settings for
each RGB channel, if you're simply color balancing input video. We
also include Panasonic and Grass Valley Viper camera standard gamma
tables, allowing instant setup when on the production set.
Flexible Rack Mount
Multibridge was designed with a compact rack mount design letting you
mount in equipment racks for large system installation, or remove the
rack brackets and install the included rubber feet for desktop use.
Multibridge models are extremely compact, so you can install in the
front or rear side of equipment racks, saving valuable equipment space.
Configure and Update via USB
Forget annoying DIP switches, as Multibridge features all
settings and software updates via built-in USB 2.0 connection and the
easy to use Multibridge Utility software for Windows and Mac
OS X.
Blackmagic Deck Control
Blackmagic Deck Control application lets you capture and play clips, and it takes care of communicating with decks via RS-422. Blackmagic Deck Control software is easy to use, and just enter an IN and OUT timecode point, and select grab, or put, and your clip will be transferred between Multibridge and your broadcast deck. It's all automatic, so it's fast. Blackmagic Deck Control is compatible with both Mac OS X and Windows. You can even grab still frames from decks!
