The Ultimate Split/Data Wrangling for RED

[Chris Reynolds]

So what, in all, does it actually do? And how is the LTO connected to the MBP?

Sorry for the late post guys, been out on location. It's a full HD split plus bomb proof data wrangling for RED. The LTO is hook up via ethernet as it is an A series.

As for cost I will have to get back to you as I need to add up all the parts I bought but they do add up as you have approx:

LTO3A ($7000), Macbook Pro($3000), MXO2 ($1600), 4 drive Raid 1 ($2000) Case, Monitor, Gadges, and lots of electronic parts.

It will not go into production as it took a lot of effort and time to build, unless someone want to pay me a lot of money!!

Cheers, Chris

I want to see you try and carry this onto a plane and make it through x-ray!

Sweet case and great build though! Thanks for the pics!

 

[Chris Reynolds]

Thanks. I don't like my chance of getting this on a plane either!!

Cheers, Chris

Bit of a thread hijack here, but related.

Does anyone know if this Delkin eFilm Express card CF reader works with the RED 16GB cards?

ExpressCard 34 CompactFlash DDEXP34-CF-2

Yes it does. I use it regularly.

Very cool! I love the rams on the lid and the hood. Nice touch.

This looks like a whole lot of hard work.
Is that a screen for external playback in the hood?
How on earth are you running an LTO drive from 12V power?
And won't you need AC power to charge that laptop - or do you just carry an extra battery on set?

Loving the setup, though.:thumbsup:
