Metadata Menu
The Metadata menu handles the metadata that is recorded onto SD card.
Record Mode
Set Record Mode to Auto if you want metadata to be recorded to SD card
each time the UMC-4 gets a tally (recording) feedback from the camera it is
connected to.
Set to Manual if you want to start metadata recording to SD card manually.
Manual metadata recording can be activated by a USER button. Press the
USER button to enter the User screen and assign Record Metadata to one
of the USER buttons (see the USER menu section). Start manual recording
by pressing the assigned USER button.
We recommend using high quality SD cards with the
UMC-4. We also recommend formatting each card before use,
as this will avoid issues with excessive fragmentation on the
card’s file system.
