unltrastudio 4k wiring??

PostThu Jul 06, 2017 2:09 am

Hello,

Considering buying the UltraStudio 4k for my grading studio.

I have 2x LG 27" 4k monitors with hdmi and digi ports.
Also have 50" 4k tv wall mounted for clients, also HDMI.

I don't see 3 HDMI ports on the back of the UltraStudio so how would this get wired????
I would like the two monitors to allow me to run separate screens like in Resolve.
Big screen can run one of those.

Computer is late Mac trashcan

Thank you

The Mac can run two GUI displays, no problem. The two monitors connect directly to the Mac.

The Ultrastudio should be able to run as many as two color-managed displays (with the same material on each) with no problem. These "hero" displays would only connect to the Ultrastudio, and then the Mac connects to the Ultrastudio via Thunderbolt.

Thanks Mark,

So i really would just use the Ultrastudio to run the client 50" and get good color on it.

Got it!

Thank you

Mark,

I would like to run one of the desktop monitors and the 50" TV from the UltraStudio in order
to color manage those displays. (same content on both )

This way only the utility monitor is run from the Mac and not color managed.

Issue is the desktop 4k monitor is only HDMI and the 50" TV is HDMI or component only.
How could I wire these two displays to the UltraStudio since it only has one HDMI out??

Thanks,

Curtis
