Ultimatte 12 HD is an advanced real-time compositing processor designed for keying live-action video with next-generation broadcast graphics, virtual sets, and more. The Blackmagic Design Ultimatte 12 HD Keyer or Advanced Compositing Processor features new algorithms and color science, incredible edge handling and color separation, amazing color fidelity, and better spill suppression than ever before. The high-performance 3G-SDI design gives you the power to work in HD with sub-pixel processing for an amazing image.

Generate Live Virtual Environments for Broadcast

Whether you’re working in broadcast news, sports, film production, or magazine-style entertainment programming, Ultimatte 12 HD has the quality for incredibly life-like composites that place your talent into any scene. Plus the new Ultimatte 12 HD includes built-in frame stores so you don't need live video sources for all inputs. You can also use Ultimatte 12 to layer computer-generated augmented reality foreground objects into a scene, complete with realistic transparency that your talent can walk behind. Ultimatte 12 is also perfect for on-set pre-visualization in film production because it lets actors and directors watch the scene while shooting.

Create Realistic Fixed Camera Virtual Sets

Now you can create a massive broadcast set, even in small apartments or a basement. That's because Ultimatte 12 HD has frame stores so you can load pre-rendered still frames from a 3D-modeled broadcast set. This is a revolution in live production because you can now use a virtual set even if you don't have the space for a physical broadcast set. Plus without any external equipment. Just use multiple cameras, each with an Ultimatte 12 and a background frame loaded. As the backgrounds are pre-rendered, they can be more photorealistic than a traditional virtual set. If the cameras don't move, the backgrounds will look perfect. Plus Ultimatte 12 is low cost, so you can use more cameras.

Ultimatte 12 HD

The world's most advanced chroma keyer in an affordable HD model. Full Ultimatte 12 quality processing gives you next-generation edge handling, amazing color separation, and better spill suppression.

New Algorithms and Expanded Color Space

The Ultimatte 12 HD, even Ultimatte 12 HD Mini, have the same incredibly advanced image processing algorithms and a huge internal color space. The processing automatically generates internal mattes so different parts of the image are processed separately based on the colors in each area. It’s like having the power of multiple Ultimatte keyers all working together on the same image. You get fine-edged detail where it’s needed the most, like on hair, and smoother transitions between colors or other objects in the scene. Everything is handled by new math and sub-pixel processing designed for incredible quality and clarity.
