Instruction manual

Welcome to UltraStudio Pro.
We hope you share our dream for the television industry to become a truly creative industry by allowing
anyone to have access to the highest quality video.
Blackmagic UltraStudio Pro is the first uncompressed editing solution that connects via the new
SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.0) found on the latest computers. USB 3.0 is easy and you can just plug in your
UltraStudio Pro. Previously high end television and post production required investment in millions of
dollars of hardware. However with UltraStudio Pro and USB 3.0, even 10 bit uncompressed high definition
TV is now easily affordable.
We hope you get years of use from your new UltraStudio Pro and have fun working with some of the world’s
hottest television and design software!
This instruction manual should contain all the information you’ll need to connect UltraStudio Pro to your
computer and video hardware. As UltraStudio Pro uses uncompressed video and the data rates are quite
high, you’ll need fast disk storage.
We think it should take you approximately 5 minutes to complete installation. Before you connect
UltraStudio Pro, please check our website at www.blackmagic-design.com and click the support page
to download the latest updates to this manual and UltraStudio Pro driver software. Lastly, please register
your UltraStudio Pro when downloading software updates. We would love to keep you updated on new
software updates and new features for your UltraStudio Pro. Perhaps you can even send us your latest show
reel of work completed on your UltraStudio Pro and any suggestions for improvements to the software.
We are constantly working on new features and improvements, so we would love to hear from you!
