OVERVIEW
The following information outlines basic procedures to connect two RED DSMCs together in a Master/Slave
configuration for 3D operation, operation of cameras in Master/Slave configuration and clip naming conventions
for clips recorded on those cameras. The MASTER camera will control only the METADATA parameters of both
cameras. On the SLAVE camera, any other setting outside of these will need to be manually changed before
recording.
CAMERA SETUP
Select one camera to be designated as Master and a second to be designated as Slave.
NOTE:
Cameras can also be set up in a MASTER/MASTER and SLAVE/SLAVE configuration. To set as MASTER/
MASTER select ALL under TARGET for both cameras. This will allow either camera to make METADATA changes
and control record start/stop of both cameras. To set as SLAVE/SLAVE select NONE under TARGET for both
cameras. This allows each camera to control its own METADATA.

CLIP NAMING CONVENTIONS
REEL NO./SLATE (CAMERA ID)/CAMERA POSITION
Before shooting in Master/Slave or Master/Master configuration for a Stereo/3D production, make sure the
Camera Slate (i.e. Reel No. and Cam ID) are set to the same value for both Master and Slave cameras. Then
change the Cam Pos value from the system default of CENTER, to either LEFT or RIGHT to identify the “left
eye” and “right eye” camera in the stereo pair.
