Blackmagic Design UltraStudio Recorder 3G SDI HDMI To Thunderbolt 3 Video Capture Interface Box
In this video I'm unboxing and showing closeups of the Blackmagic Design UltraStudio Recorder 3G. The UltraStudio Recorder 3G is a HDMI and SDI video capture interface that allows you to record video from a HDMI or SDI source and transfer it into your computer using Thunderbolt 3.
Keep an eye on my channel as I will be doing more videos with this interface to see how it works with my new Panther Canyon i7 NUC and my Apple Mac Mini M1. I will also be trying it out with OBS on both my Mac Mini M1 and my NUC and I will also try it out with my NLE which is Edius and see how well it works with Resolve and FCP X on the Mac.
Here's some info from the Blackmagic website:
