Watch to learn more about Ki Pro GO’s key features including Multi-Channel HD and SD capture to USB media, redundant recordings to a fifth USB port on the rear, elegant web interface for remote control and more.

The video and audio connections on the rear panel of the Ki Pro GO offers 4x 3G-SDI and 4x HDMI inputs with separate SDI and HDMI monitoring which includes Matrix Monitoring for multi-channel viewing on a single HD display. XLR Analog Audio in offers Mic, Line and Phantom Power for audio recording from master sources, mixers and more. HDMI and SDI 2-channel embedded audio or the XLR analog inputs can be easily assigned to each recording channel. Alternatively, you can use the second Analog Audio input as a LTC input. Four USB ports on the front provide easy to access recording media using off the shelf USB drives, with a fifth USB port on the rear. Flexible destination mapping allows any USB to record the primary and any USB for backup or pass on of a second copy. This allows for backup or pass on of a secondary copy of captured files to post-production, clients, or others on your team. You can also map a single source to multiple USBs for duplication needs. Four 3G-SDI outputs ensure that signal pass through is available for connectivity into a wide range of devices from routers, to switchers, additional Ki Pros and more. Redundant power supplies ensure that always up reliability is provided for your critical live event needs.

Ki Pro GO is capable of playing back .mp4  and .mov H.264 files created by common 3rd party applications. This capability has been tested against the latest versions of the following applications:

• DaVinci Resolve
• Apple Final Cut Pro
• Avid Media Composer
• Adobe Premiere Pro

 

Record 1, 2, 3 or 4-channels of HD or SD up to 1080p 50/60 in H.264 simultaneously with Ki Pro GO. Simplify your setup by connecting up to four HDMI and four 3G-SDI source cables into Ki Pro GO and assign any combination of four inputs at a time for four channels of H.264 recording to any four of the 5 USB ports on the Ki Pro GO. Time is always tight, especially for live events. Ki Pro GO's Genlock free inputs make it is easy to switch your sources including SDI cameras, DSLRs, or HDMI cameras to the appropriate recording channel, all conveniently mapped within Ki Pro GO's elegant UI.

Extend your recording capabilities through the use of external (NAS) storage. Simply connect your storage to the Ki Pro GO over a standard Gigabit Ethernet network and take advantage of all the features of networked storage. Use your NAS as your primary storage location or as secondary (backup) media – you can even record to NAS and local, USB-based storage simultaneously, giving you the perfect combination of shared storage and portability.

Ki Pro GOs elegant and intuitive UI makes NAS set up easy. Simply enter the IP address of the storage, any required user credentials, and the SMB dialect you wish to use, and you’re ready to record. Ki Pro GO simplifies set up even further by auto-detecting the SMB dialect of your NAS system and self-configuring to match. SMB credentials can also be stored in system presets and recalled at the push of a button for “on-the-fly” system reconfiguration.

In this workflow we can see the Ki Pro GO is receiving video from camera sources 1 through 4. The Ki Pro GO is recording locally to USB drives connected to the front USB3 inputs. The Ki Pro GO  is also connected via Gigabit ethernet to a Gigabit ethernet switch and a NAS for simultaneous recording. Editorial, Graphics and Digital Asset Management (DAM) workstations are also connected to the same network as the Ki Pro GO, with both having access to the NAS.

This workflow shows two Ki Pro GO units, with the first receiving video from camera sources 1 through 4 and the second receiving video from camera sources 5 through 8. Each Ki Pro GO is recording locally to USB drives connected to the front USB ports. Both Ki Pro GOs are connected via Gigabit ethernet to a Gigabit ethernet switch. A NAS connected to the same network is also the second recording destination for cameras 1 through 8.

This workflow shows the Ki Pro GO receiving video from camera sources 1 though 4. The Ki Pro GO is connected to multiple USB drives as well as a NAS via Gigabit ethernet allowing immense flexibility.

Pick your Quality. Deliver your Bit Rate. Ki Pro GO allows independent quality settings per channel for recording; with five recording settings choices for any channel assignment depending upon your delivery need or eventual bandwidth allocation for the file's playback stream. Choose any one of five VBR Recording Settings allowing up to 25Mbps:

• Low: Suitable for talking heads, conference backups, security recording and more.
• Med-Low
• Medium: Ideal for higher detail and more complex content.
• Med-High
• High: Serves well for fast moving, highly detailed content like sports or live event scenarios like concerts.

Ki Pro GO records as a standard .MP4 file, providing convenience and compatibility with a huge range of software applications.

Ki Pro GO offers a large matrix of possibilities for redundant recording needs. Four USB ports on the front and a fifth USB port on the rear provide easy to access recording media using off the shelf USB drives. The Ki Pro GO offers the user flexibility in choosing any USB port for a channel’s primary and any USB port for a channel’s backup. The backup’s identical redundant recording allows for a true backup or pass on secondary copy of captured files to post-production, clients, or others on your team. In the case of a single input source, you can assign a single input to four primary recording channels and four backup channels in flexible combinations across the 5 USB ports, enabling 8 captures of the source to a total of 5 physical devices for duplication needs. The workflows below provide some examples of just some of the possibilities possible with Ki Pro GO's focus on a key concept of ‘pass out’ or ‘pass around’ or ‘handout’ media. Hit stop on your recordings and the show is ready to give to your clients right there and then.

Many workflows, as in some of the workflows shown above, require simultaneous recording across a range of Ki Pro products or multiple Ki Pro GOs. The Gang Recording feature means multiple units can be used in unison to produce recordings. This feature is available via the web UI when Ki Pro GO and other Ki Pro Ultra units have IP addresses configured under a common network and subnet mask and are connected via their LAN connections to an Ethernet switch or hub to a host computer. When used with an AJA Ki Pro Ultra 12G, this provides you with an ideal workflow for Proxy workflows, the ability to walk away simultaneously from a recording session with ProRes files captured from Ki Pro Ultra 12G for a high resolution edit and H.264 files from a Ki Pro GO for client handoff, streaming and more.

Multi-Channel recording with Ki Pro GO provides individual, discrete recordings for each input, ready to be imported directly into a multi-channel editing sequence. No additional conversion or software is required, just drag and drop the files directly from the USB drive into your edit software of choice. Clip names for Ki Pro GO are laid out in a logical manner for easy data management and tuned for multi-channel editing. Ki Pro GO automatically appends channel and backup naming for easy data management:

• Primary recorded file number 144 from channel 1 would read: Clip_ch1_144.mp4
• Backup recorded file number 144 from channel 1 would read: Clip_ch1_144_bak.mp4

 

HD HDMI and/or SDI monitors can be fed from Ki Pro GO's SDI and HDMI monitoring ports to display up to four channels of video in a matrix at a time per display or alternatively you can choose to send a full screen single channel of your choice to either output, allowing both matrix viewing and close up detail inspection for a channel of your choice. This flexibility ensures multi-camera shoots can be monitored on a single monitor when desired, with no matrix converter or independent monitors required for the utmost in efficiency and convenience. Enhanced Super Out provides a timecode overlay, per chanel audio VU meters and media remaining percentages over SDI and HDMI Monitor outputs, putting what you need to know, where you need to see it.

Ki Pro GO features a beautiful high resolution large HD display with Video Monitor and Menu/Status Overlays for pristine monitoring of your material and serves as your interface to Ki Pro GO's familiar and intuitive menu system. The detailed overlay UI includes onscreen keyboard functionality and a clear view of the powerful yet simple to operate UI, all pristinely presented on the HD LCD display. Just like a traditional tape deck, Ki Pro GO features straightforward and dedicated transport buttons - record, play, stop, rewind, fast forward - making the device easy to operate with minimal training time. The current status of the system and key configuration information is clearly displayed on the beautiful built-in high resolution LCD screen. Additional operational information can be found in the STATUS menu which can be accessed even when recording or playing back.

Losing one or even several feeds during a multi-channel shoot can cause major sync issues during the editing process that can be lengthy to resolve, if they can be resolved at all. But Ki Pro Ultra 12G is designed so that as soon as a loss in signal is detected on any of the inputs, a color bars frame with the legend “Loss Of Signal” is recorded until the input is restored or the shoot ends. In this way, all multi-channel clips have the same timecode duration and will align perfectly within any NLE. The editor then just simply cuts away from any recording that lost signal, without any heavy lifting to insert frames, or adjust audio to compensate. This function works with each input to Ki Pro Ultra 12G and will even function in Rollover mode, meaning that a loss of signal that spans separate media will pose no issues in editing, the time code of each file recorded being equal.

Forced Rollover support allows users to force a rollover recording to the second PAK port at any point, allowing quick extraction of the first PAK drive for fast transfer to editing environments, playout servers and more, while recording continues.

Infinite Record allows continuous recording and rollover from PAK Drive to PAK Drive for a variety of needs including multi-day sporting events, conferences, security needs and much more.

Ki Pro Ultra 12G includes Ki Protect, a feature that helps to ensure data integrity if a media drive is accidentally removed or loses power during recording. The Ki Protect feature automatically pre-allocates recording space on the media drive for video, audio and timecode when the record button is pressed.

While recording, the file header is then continuously updated every time new data is written. That way, the only loss that should be incurred is the last few frames that were in transit to the media drive to be recorded when the operation was interrupted. Frames that are already recorded will be preserved and are recoverable, providing greater peace of mind on set and in the studio, essential for multi-channel recording.

Ki Pro Ultra 12G features a beautiful high resolution HD display for pristine monitoring of your material and serves as your interface to Ki Pro's familiar and intuitive menu system. The detailed overlay UI includes onscreen keyboard functionality and a clear view of the powerful yet simple to operate UI, all pristinely presented on the 4.8” 720p LCD display.
