Blackmagic Design HyperDeck Shuttle HD includes a control panel that's very fast to use buttons are similar to a traditional broadcast deck. Simply press the record button and you instantly start recording the video input to a file! It will record in the file format that has been set in the record menu. HyperDeck Shuttle HD is a recorder and player that's designed to be used on the desktop! That means it's more than a master recorder as it can also be used as a clip player.

There are other buttons for playback, to cue to the start of the clip and to move to the next clip. The buttons have been custom designed by Blackmagic Design for the highest quality. The large machined metal search dial supports shuttle, jog and scroll so you can find clips fast. Plus all deck control functions can be triggered remotely using the Ethernet network.

The clip button allows you to play clips without running off the end to the next clip. When enabled, it stops playback at the end of the current clip. It can also be used to navigate back in scroll. The previous and next clip buttons make it fast to move up and down clips. You can use the previous clip button to cue to the start of the current clip. That ensures the clip is ready to play on air.
