UltraStudio Recorder 3G no audio on Nikon Z6 and Nikon D850

PostSun Sep 06, 2020 5:15 pm

I'm using an UltraStudio Recorder 3G with a MacBook Pro 13" (2016, two Thunderbolt 3 ports) under macOS Catalina 10.15.6

From a Nikon D850 via HDMI and from a Nikon Z6 I receive an image, but no audio.
With a Nikon D750 I receive image and audio.

All user settings in the cameras comparable or same, all batteries full, all cables the same.

What's wrong? I need sound, I don't want to capture silent movies.

Anyone with a solution? Anyone capturing sound from a Z6 or D850?

Thanks in advance :-)

I got it! You need an additional adapter, called „MicroConverter HDMI to SDI". Works with Z6 and D850, with UltraStudio Mini Recorder and with UltraStudio Recorder 3G.

But it's not as easy as it sounds first. More info is coming soon.

Hi,

Did you ever resolve? I have two Nikon models - D850 and D780 that I can't get audio output with HDMI connection for.

I have the same issue, HDMI audio from the Z6 works with another external recorder but for some reason is not picked up by the UltraStudio Recorder 3G.
