About the AJA KiPro Rack Digital File Recorder

The AJA KiPro Rack is a professional, multi-channel file-based recorder designed for broadcast, post-production, and live production environments where reliable, high-quality recording is mission-critical. It records video and audio directly to industry-standard file formats on removable SSD or HDD media, streamlining workflow by eliminating the need for digitization. The rackmount unit is engineered to capture multiple channels simultaneously—typically up to four channels of HD-SDI video—in codecs such as Apple ProRes and Avid DNxHD, which are immediately ready for editing in popular non-linear editing systems. This makes it an ideal solution for recording iso-camera feeds in live sports or events, for master control playout recording, or as a high-quality backup recorder in broadcast trucks and studio facilities.

Built for reliability in 24/7 operations, the KiPro Rack features a robust metal chassis, redundant hot-swappable power supplies, and cooling fans to ensure continuous operation. It offers a comprehensive set of I/O, including multiple 3G/HD/SD-SDI inputs and outputs, analog audio inputs and outputs, and reference inputs for genlock. Control and monitoring are facilitated through an intuitive front-panel LCD screen, a web-based GUI accessible over Ethernet, and integration with broadcast control systems via protocols like VDCP and RS-422. The ability to record to two drives simultaneously (in RAID 1 configuration) provides instant backup, while the removable drive bays allow for quick media swapping and archiving without interrupting other recording channels.

The value of the AJA KiPro Rack lies in its combination of format flexibility, multi-channel capability, and operational reliability. It bridges the gap between traditional baseband video infrastructure and modern file-based workflows, allowing facilities to capture content in an edit-ready state directly from live signals. For production companies and broadcasters, this means faster turnaround times, reduced costs associated with tape or other linear media, and a dependable recording platform that integrates seamlessly into both live and post-production environments. By delivering broadcast-quality recordings in a robust, manageable package, the KiPro Rack serves as a critical asset for content creation and preservation.

Key Features

  • File-based 1RU HD/SD recorder and player.
  • Records to Apple ProRes and Avid DNxHD formats.
  • Professional 3G-SDI, HDMI, and analog connectivity.
  • Supports a wide range of HD and SD resolutions.
