A company dedicated to quality and stability and focusing on where it's needed most; Blackmagic has created some of the most talked about products in the industry. World famous for their unbeatable codecs, Blackmagic envisioned truly affordable high-end quality editing workstations built upon Blackmagic software and hardware.

In November 2002, Blackmagic launched the DeckLink capture card and in doing so single-handedly made working in true 10-bit uncompressed video on a Macintosh OS X™ system an affordable reality.

In September 2016 Blackmagic Design announced the acquisition of Australian manufacturer Fairlight, which creates professional digital audio products for live broadcast event production, film and television post-production, as well as immersive 3D audio mixing and finishing. The first developing being the integration of Fairlight DAW technology into the Davinci Resolve software platform.
