  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Sonnet Express Pro & Red Rocket

I posted this in another topic:

Our tests today with the Sonnet and RED Rocket was awesome.
I get the warning in RCXPro about needing 8x but able to view R3D 4K files in Full debayer and 100%.
Is this right?
The clips are about 30 sec to 1.5 min long and no stutters period.
Im reading this off the REDMAG 1.8 via NewerTechs eSATA to USB3 converter.
 
Yes the warning is normal everytime you launch it.

Yes, I get the warning in a MacPro configured with two CUDA cards for Resolve and the RR in the third slot, but the loss of performance in RCX is minimal, while Resolve is so much faster.
 
Thanks folks for the assurance about the pop-up warning.
So its safe to say that I am getting full debayer playback with the ROCKET in the Sonnet using a Retina.
I sold my boss that we would only get half-debayer so we're happy to get 4K (any type) playing back smoothly.
The exports are wicked fast compared to not having it.

I also replaced the face plate on the Tempo PCI card (supplied by Sonnet) to accommodate the two SDI ports for the ROCKET.
To get that to work with any SDI cable, I have to move the cards around.
I better not lose the full debayer playback due to this :P
