Hi,
I just bought an ATEM Television Studio HD and a HyperDeck Studio Mini for a low budget project, just to learn that both are, although functionally excellent, unsable or at least problematic for the intended purpose because of their noisy fans. Both, especially the HyperDeck, produce a penetrant and audible noise from the outer (case) fans, and it seems as if there are more, even louder, fans inside (cpu fans I guess). Since the devices were intended to be operated by the person sitting in front of the camera and microphone (there's no director), the mic will record the noise. I'm somewhat disappointed since all my other camera/recording gear is completely or quite silent. That's the first recording equipment I have making lots of noise.
Now I have to deal with that problem somehow.
One approach would be to build a simple remote control at least for the „cut” button, which should not be much of a problem except for programming. A simple button mounted in a table.
Is there a description of the API / network protocol to operate the devices over the network as Blackmagic's Mac software does?
regards
