iodyne to Showcase Cardless Ingest and Advanced Color Workflows at Cinegear Expo 2026

In a groundbreaking presentation at the Cinegear Expo 2026, scheduled for June 5-6 at Universal Studios Lot in Los Angeles, iodyne, a prominent name in high-performance data storage solutions, will showcase its innovations alongside industry leaders RED Digital Cinema and Adobe. This year's focus will be on the revolutionary cardless ingest technology that allows seamless workflow integration from capture to post-production.

iodyne's participation comes as a pivotal moment for production teams exploring new methodologies to streamline their workflows. With pressures mounting for quicker turnaround times while preserving high-quality output, the need for more efficient data management has never been more critical. The collaboration between iodyne, RED, and Adobe highlights how technology can facilitate a smoother transition between different stages of production.

Live Demonstration

The live demonstration will feature a sophisticated DIT (Digital Imaging Technician) cart configuration, designed to illustrate a real-time multi-camera ingest process. This workflow exemplifies how production teams can bypass traditional card-based methods by directly recording RED RAW media to iodyne Pro Data storage, utilizing RAID-6 protection for enhanced security. This capability is particularly suited for high-stakes environments, such as live events and virtual productions, where quick access to data is essential.

The setup will specifically include:
1. Camera 1: V-RAPTOR XL X with Cine-Broadcast Module
2. Camera 2: KOMODO-X using RED Connect via 10GbE
3. Host Machine: Mac Studio Ultra
4. Data Storage: iodyne Pro Data 24TB
5. Connection: iodyne Purple Pro Cables

This integrated approach not only eliminates bottlenecks but also facilitates immediate grading and collaborative workflows, a necessity in the fast-paced world of digital media.

Adobe Color Mode

In addition to the ingest workflow, iodyne will unveil performance-enhancing capabilities built around Adobe's new Color Mode experience. This will be part of Adobe's Color Expo on June 5, emphasizing the ability for creative teams to easily transition from media capture to post-production.

Key aspects of this demonstration will include how Adobe's Color Mode can:

• - Facilitate real-time RAW grading for immediate feedback.
• - Support multi-project editorial workflows, allowing teams to work on several projects concurrently without losing efficiency.
• - Tackle edge and on-set post challenges, providing solutions for immediate access to creative tools.

Michael Gitig, Sr. Director of Strategic Initiatives at iodyne, expressed enthusiasm for the collaboration: "We are thrilled to work alongside RED and Adobe to showcase workflows that align with the future of production. Today's creative teams require more than just speed; they need storage solutions that ensure mobility, security, and control, no matter where their projects take them."

Attend the Expo

For those in the industry looking to learn more about innovative technology and workflows, the Cinegear Expo represents an opportunity to witness the latest advances firsthand. Attendees can visit iodyne at their designated booth to see the products in action and understand their applications in real-world scenarios. Additionally, Adobe Color After Dark Expo will be an evening event focusing on community and creative flows, taking place at Key Code Media in Burbank, CA.

In conclusion, the 2026 Cinegear Expo promises to be a significant milestone in redefining how creative professionals manage data across all stages of production. With iodyne at the forefront, attendees will get a glimpse of how the convergence of storage technology, cameras, and color grading tools can reshape the landscape of digital media production.
