HyperDeck Extreme Control

HyperDeck Extreme Control brings traditional broadcast deck operation to the HyperDeck Extreme 8K with a familiar, tactile control layout designed for professional live production and post workflows. Built for reliability and speed, it allows operators to control multiple decks with the precision and responsiveness expected in high-end broadcast environments.

Using industry-standard RS-422, a single unit can control up to eight HyperDeck Extreme recorders simultaneously, making it ideal for OB vans, broadcast galleries, and multi-deck ingest systems. Dedicated transport buttons, jog/shuttle controls, and a clear timecode display ensure fast, accurate operation in mission-critical situations.

With reference input support, Ethernet connectivity, and USB-C firmware updates, HyperDeck Extreme Control integrates seamlessly into professional signal chains while remaining simple to maintain and deploy.
