Blackmagic Design Teranex Express

The Blackmagic Design Teranex Express is a real-time broadcast standards converter featuring 12G-SDI. It is designed for high-end television and post-production facilities that require mathematically precise conversions between SD, HD, and Ultra HD standards.

Key Conversion Capabilities

  • 1,089 Conversions: Performs a massive array of up, down, cross, and standards conversions in full 10-bit quality.

  • Patented PixelMotion De-interlacing: Uses proprietary algorithms to create perfect progressive frames from interlaced sources by adjusting the aperture on a pixel-by-pixel basis.

  • Cadence Detection & Removal: Automatically detects and corrects broken cadences (like 3:2 pulldown) from edited masters, allowing for the creation of clean 24fps progressive files.

  • Ancillary Data Preservation: Maintains 16 channels of embedded audio, timecode (VITC/ATC), and closed captioning (608/708) throughout the conversion process.


Blackmagic Design Teranex AV

The Blackmagic Design Teranex AV is a specialized version of the Teranex processor tailored for live events and professional staging. While it shares the same 12G-SDI processing as the Express, it adds features specifically requested by AV professionals for use in concerts, conferences, and stadiums.

Live Staging Features

  • Low Latency Mode: Operates with latency as low as 67 milliseconds (approx. 2 frames), making it ideal for IMAG (Image Magnification) where lip-sync on large screens is critical.

  • HDMI 2.0 Integration: Includes HDMI input, loop-through, and output. This allows for direct conversion of laptop signals or consumer cameras to professional SDI without external adapters.

  • Still Store: Features non-volatile internal memory to capture and hold a video frame. This allows you to display a logo or "Please Stand By" graphic even if the primary video source is disconnected.

  • Live Freeze Frame: Enables the operator to freeze the current output while switching sources or adjusting settings in the background, ensuring a seamless experience for the audience.

Operational Insight

The Teranex Express is the better choice for a Broadcast Machine Room where the primary goal is re-mastering content or standardizing high volumes of SDI feeds for a central router.

The Teranex AV is the superior choice for Rental & Staging. Its inclusion of RCA and XLR inputs allows you to embed professional audio directly into the video stream during the conversion, and the rear "protection brackets" prevent expensive cables and BNC connectors from being sheared off during the rough conditions of a live event load-in.

Very nice knives for the price, with additional options in the same pattern!
Size: Steel King 15Pcs 10.4"×7"×15.4"
It’s been 10 months, so I feel like I can finally give a decent opinion on this knife set. First of all, I really appreciate how sharp they are out of the box. The set of different blade shapes suits my needs quite well, with the exception of the bread knife, which I swapped in the block for Brodark’s deboning knife. I also added their breaking butcher knife, cleaver, and brisket slicer to my collection, all which match the handle style for this set. (I really liked that I could get the same pattern for some additional blades to expand my kitchen set without getting a different pattern.) The knives should never go through the dishwasher - I tested with one of the steak knives and water spots rusted lightly. I was able to buff the stains out, but the “high carbon stainless steel” is definitely as described. When used normally I do soap and water cleanup, dry, then back in the block without issues. I have honed the chef and slicing knives so they glide through food more easily, but they retain their edges well enough I haven’t needed to repeat the process in normal use. The block is quite heavy and very durable, but still has a rather compact space use as it stands pretty close to vertical. I have mine pulled forward on the counter as our cabinets are rather low, and there is no hint of instability when drawing or resheathing blades. The finish is quite nice, and no need for touchups or worry about the blades wearing in the slots like softer wood blocks can have happen. All the blades fit well in their respective slots. You do need to grip the handles by the ends to draw some of the blades as there are a lot of tools in close proximity, and my fingers and hands are large. I got my set last Black Friday. With the prices and discounts that keep popping up, you could still get a pretty good price most of the year. If you want the option for additional knives of similar handle pattern, do a quick Amazon search for ‘Brodark knife’ and check their options. There have been a lot of good spot sales lately!

Very nice knife set.
Size: Steel King 15Pcs 10.4"×7"×15.4", Size: Steel King 15Pcs 10.4"×7"×15.4"
Got these as a Christmas present and they are a very nice set of knives. They are very sharp so be careful when taking them out of the little sleeves they come in. The wooden base is surprisingly heavy and does a great job at holding the knives without sliding around. The built in sharpener works good to fine tune the edge with just a gentle pull through the ceramic side. They also come with a lifetime warranty which is nice.

Great Knives
Size: 12-pc, Color: Gray
These are great knives. Sharp as can be. Be careful. Wash delicately & don't put them down point first in dishwasher. Lay them down flat. The point is sharp and could bend or get bent. Point is sharp as hell and thin. But very hardy strong knives

Better than what we were using.
Size: 7-pc, Color: Brown
I grew tired of going for a knife only to find that what we had were dull, pitted and bent tips. So I gathered them all up, sorted through them and threw the worst of the worst out. Discovered long ago that those expensive knife sharpeners don’t work either. So I purchased this set as a throwaway set. I’ll use them until they too have seen thier better days and then buy another set.
