Blackmagic Design

Blackmagic Design provides a range of products for professional filmmaking, post-production, and broadcast workflows. The lineup spans software and hardware used to edit, color, mix audio, switch live video, record media, convert standards, and distribute IP video.

At the center of its post and creative workflow is DaVinci Resolve, including the DaVinci Resolve 21.1 major update with AI assistant integration, expanded still photography support, and 100+ new tools and controls for editors and colorists. For live and broadcast audio mixing, Fairlight Live is a software-based live audio mixer designed for SMPTE-2110 broadcast and immersive workflows, available as a free download. For live video production and switching, ATEM production switchers are built for broadcast workflows and IP environments, including ATEM 4 M/E Constellation IP with native SMPTE-2110 100G Ethernet.

The hardware ecosystem also covers capture and playback (UltraStudio Mini 12G, UltraStudio Express 3G), recording (HyperDeck ISO Recorder 100G), and high-performance network storage (Blackmagic Cloud Store Ultra, Blackmagic Media Dock Ultra). There are also 12G-SDI to IP bridging options such as Blackmagic SDI Expander 8x12G.
