Review on ๐Ÿ“บ Decimator MD-HX Cross Converter: HDMI and SDI with Scaling & Frame Rate Conversion by Patrick Nepal

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Decimator MD-HX. WOW!

Let me start by saying that if you're on the fence about this. BUY IT! Amazing product! I've always read reviews from people raving about it, and while it had a VERY good reputation in the broadcast world, it was never something I NEEDED. Until last week. In short, we had a Mac Pro that ATEM Production Studio 4K didn't recognize and we needed it. Poorly. We tried software, SwitchResX and such never seemed to work for us. After hearing about this product for so long, I gritted my teeth and bought it. The best purchase I've ever made. Works like a charm after figuring out how to set it up properly. No problem for us and I would highly recommend this product to everyone else!

Pros
  • VERSATILE: Includes 4 (3G/HD/SD) SDI outputs and allows use as a distribution amplifier for 1 to 4. Output pair 1 can either be a copy of the SDI input (default) or identical to pair 2. The audio pairs on the SDI and HDMI outputs can be swapped out as needed.
Cons
  • fade
