So you could use half of this with your studio PC and the other half with your studio Mac, or anything you decide to dream up.īlackmagic Design is a leader in creative video technology, and they developed the MultiDock for video editors to be able to work directly with their captured 4k and 8k HDR video content. And, the MultiDock can be configured as (2) two-drive devices, each with its own USB-C connection to separate computers. Every drive gets its own dedicated controller chip (internal tech stuff) for maximum performance. Taking advantage of USB-C, one cable transmits data from up to (4) SSDs at up to 10 Gb/s each. 2.5″ internal SSDs are super compact and quite rugged since there are no moving parts involved.
At the end of each session, you back up the client’s files to your studio’s HD storage, and when the session is finished, you simply hand the client their SSD to take with them (or you keep and store the drives). No more cable mess! Instead of relying on random external drives and wall warts/external PSUs and various data cables (and uncertainty as to hard drive speed, interface data rates, etc.), ask your client to purchase a blank SSD from your studio for the session (or supply their own). The Blackmagic MultiDock is a high-speed USB-C storage solution that lets you make use of compact, internal SSD drives as simply as you work with external hard drives, but with numerous advantages:
We are thrilled to offer this fantastic storage solution for your Windows- or Mac OS-based recording studio.
What if you could restore some peace of mind to the whole customer data management experience? With the Blackmagic MultiDock installed in your studio, now you can! Whose liability is it? And how do you get the session back on track? And then half-way through the session, the client’s hard drive can’t keep up with the tracking. Little do you realize the drive is a few years old and/or it’s an inexpensive 5k hard drive (as opposed to the 7,200rpm drives you rely on in the studio).
But think of the hassles you might encounter today: Those days are gone, and now it’s all about recording on hard drives or lightning-fast solid-state drives. Remember the days of reel-to-reel tape? A client would book time in your studio and you would sell them a dedicated reel of Ampex 456 (or more) for their session. A fantastic (and affordable) storage solution for busy recording studios.
