Sync Generator for 120FPS project
Posted: Mon Dec 11, 2017 4:37 pm
Dear Live production gurus,
I am working on a post-production project that requires we shoot using an Ursa Mini 4K at 120FPS. These are the project settings on the camera:
The project requires we sync 4 separate LED panels to flash in sequence for exactly 1 frame of video each. To do this we want to use a sync generator like the "Blackmagic Mini Converter Sync Generator". I want to know if it work with a Project Frame Rate of "60 fps", Sensor Frame Rate "120 fps" and Sensor Area "Windowed"?
I am also curious about the type of signal coming from the Sync Generator. We want to run the LEDs using an Arduino and I am wondering how we will interpret the signal coming from the Sync Generator. Will it be an SMPTE signal?
Any help would be much appreciated.
