Fremont, CA - February 27, 2017 - Blackmagic Design today announced that Tokyo based L'espace Vision has created the Mega MultiDock, an ingest system built around 20 Blackmagic MultiDocks. The system is able to import media from up to 80 SSDs simultaneously and is primarily used for ingesting footage from its live concert recording service, which uses multiple Blackmagic HyperDeck Studio Pro SSD recorders.

L'espace Vision is a post production company working in film, TV commercials and music videos. The company has been expanding its business, including film production and live concert recording, providing live and post production work for some of the world’s biggest bands. Applying file based workflows from very early on, L’espace Vision offers its clients a more efficient workflow, which also resulted in developing and selling its Rapid Copy Pro, a software that copies data and verifies data integrity.

One of the challenges L’espace Vision faced was ingesting massive amounts of footage from live concert recordings effectively. At every concert, the company uses up to 80 480GB Intel and 512GB Toshiba SSDs for recording a variety of footage depending on the scale of the production. Those SSDs are then sent to its post production facility where the footage is ingested using the Mega MultiDock. L’espace Vision's Mega MultiDock includes 20 Blackmagic MultiDocks for mounting and three Mac Pros, all with Rapid Copy and Rapid Copy Pro software to provide control of the multiple MultiDocks, creating copies and verifying the data from the SSDs to 45 HDDs in RAID.
