The panel controls are for the most part identical to those of tape decks. The display screen and operating system work hand-in-hand to facilitate full configuration without any connection to a separate computer: all information is displayed clearly on the screen and the OS control menu is a fast and flat one.
The video and audio connections on the rear panel of the Ki Pro Rack offer the same standard connectors found on traditional tape decks, allowing Ki Pro Rack to integrate easily with your current cabling and routing. The rear connections include SDI, HDMI, component analog, AES and analog XLR balanced audio, LTC and RS-422. Also available is an Ethernet port by which files can be transferred (minimizing the need for staff involvement and allowing better employment of staff).
Up/down/cross conversion can be performed right inside the hardware, both during recording or playback. A second device won't be needed for conversions.
As for remote control, the Ki Pro can be fully configured and controlled via a web browser per an IP address assignment. Multiple Ki Pro Racks can be networked together for control over a single interface.
Multi Function Video Recorder
- File-Based 10-bit 4:2:2 full-raster video recorder

Hardware 10-bit
Anamorphic: fullscreen
Pillarbox 4:3: results in a 4:3 image in center of screen with black sidebars
Zoom 14:9: results in a 4:3 image zoomed slightly to fill a 14:9 image with black side bars
Zoom Letterbox: results in image zoomed to fill fullscreen
Zoom Wide: results in a combination of zoom and horizontal stretch to fill a 16:9 screen; this setting can introduce a small aspect ratio change
