Create Ultra Long Recordings
Broadcast Program Logging
From major network broadcasters to local affiliates, everything that gets shown on-air needs to be archived for future reference.

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!
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 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 playback from standard SD card media! You can even playback 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 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 colour 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
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
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
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
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 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 playback a single movie!
