You'll Never look at video in the same way again

A custom toolset crafted for creative professionals. Mix and match scopes, save layouts, and be confident that you're seeing every pixel and every frame of your signal.

  1. No hardware

    You bring a Mac, we do the rest. Take your scopes with you anywhere you go, or use an old Mac Mini to be your dedicated scopes system - no need for expensive converter boxes.

  2. Crazy accurate

    HDMI SD HD 2K SDI 4K 8bit 10bit YCbCr RGB NDI. Because viewing scopes only makes sense if you do it in the resolution, format, and color spaces of your workflow.

  3. Insights at a glance

    Looking at scopes is nice, but drawing conclusions is better. That's why ScopeBox is packed with features that help you decide if what you're seeing is what you want to be seeing.

Check out the monitors

Advanced monitoring for professionals

ScopeBox's video preview shows your image exactly as you're shooting it. The monitor calibration ensures that the colors you see accurately represent your video.

Preview

Preview

All the features of a high-end field monitor, including false color and feature insights. Enjoy the most powerful toolset for quantitative viewing, plus framing guides and overlays to ensure your shot works perfectly.

Overlays

Overlays

ScopeBox includes overlay features to help frame your shot: center marks, rule of thirds, letterbox masks, title safe, and graphics safe. You can also overlay any QuickTime movie or image, perfect for greenscreen shots or lower thirds.

Feature Insights

Feature Insights

ScopeBox's Feature Insights let you highlight pixels by luminance, chrominance, or channel range, making it easy to match problem areas in your scopes to image features.

LUTs

LUTs

ScopeBox lets you quickly apply a LUT to preview your color-corrected footage in 709 or 2020. With vendor-supplied LUTs for log-to-linear conversion, you can see how your footage will look in real life.

Camera Matching

LUTs

Adjust your cameras to a color chart using standard tools like waveform and vectorscope, or switch between saved frames for comparison. ScopeBox also supports multiple simultaneous sources, allowing you to see all your cameras at the same time - in any scope!

A box full of scopes

ScopeBox replicates every major video quality assurance tool in software. You can arrange, resize, and customize each tool, then save and recall your layouts.

Waveform

Waveform

Video levels are crucial for a well-exposed shot. A waveform ensures maximum contrast and definition. It also makes setting up green screen shots a breeze. ScopeBox replicates a real waveform precisely.

Vectorscope

Vectorscope

Everyone loves vibrant colors, but there can be too much of a good thing. Vectorscopes reveal your color saturation, ensuring bright colors without exceeding broadcast limits. They also help achieve perfect white and black balance and assist in calibrating your video equipment.

HML Balance

HML Balance

The scope that made ScopeBox famous. Invented by Divergent Media before becoming a Hedge app, the HML Balance scope divides your signal into high, mid, and low exposure vectorscopes. This makes it easy to spot color casts in highlights or shadows.

RGB Parade

RGB Parade

The RGB Parade displays each video channel in red, green, and blue. Use it with the Waveform scope to identify and adjust overexposed areas.

Channel Plot

RGB Parade

Channel Plot allows you to plot two signal components, like red vs. blue or luma vs. chroma, to quickly identify gamut excursions and color conversion issues.

YCbCr Parade

YCbCr Parade

The YCbCr Parade shows how each YCbCr video component is represented. This technical scope is useful for spotting banding, quantization, and clipping signals in SDI and other YCbCr sources.

RGB Histogram

RGB Histogram

You've likely heard discussions about scene contrast, which can be hard to visualize. A histogram shows color concentration within a scene, revealing if reds are dark and greens are bright, or if saturation is evenly distributed or clumped together.

Luma Histogram

Luma Histogram

The Luma Histogram shows the distribution of luma levels in your signal, helping you quickly identify overexposed areas. For HDR, surface area overlays highlight the percentage of raster within a nit range, essential due to modern TVs' autogain control.

CIE Plot

CIE Plot

Modern workflows often target multiple color gamuts within a single file, such as P3 ranges in rec2020 gamut. The CIE plot displays your color gamut and primary boundaries of various colorspaces, allowing for custom primaries and whitepoints.

RGB Timetrace

RGB Timetrace

Color constancy is a challenge for all colorists, as the human visual system adapts to make white look white, masking small color shifts over time. RGB TimeTrace helps by accurately tracking these changes, ensuring precise color balance.

Luma Timetrace

Luma Timetrace

Luma TimeTrace tracks luma balance and contrast changes over time, helping detect scene changes and camera auto-exposure shifts. It aids in matching multiple shots or scenes and addresses the common issue of HDR grades drifting brighter throughout the day.

Preview

Preview

The Preview scope is more than a monitor. You can overlay images, add masking, adjust contrast and saturation, and open multiple scopes simultaneously—one for checking critical focus and another for a complete image view.

Levels

Levels

Nobody likes distorted audio, but many cameras lack gain or level indicators. The Audio Meter provides real-time insight into your signals, eliminating the need to crowd around the camera operator.

Surround Plot

Surround Plot

Many workflows rely on 5.1 or 7.1 audio mixing with various channel layouts. ScopeBox's flexible surround meter scope provides an easy view of your surround audio signal layout.

Timecode

Timecode

You can feed a timecode signal into ScopeBox via serial cable, firewire interface, or embedded HD-SDI on supported devices. The timecode scope displays a large timecode clock for easy time tracking and logging.

What will it cost me?

Simple and predictable pricing.

A ScopeBox license is perpetual, and includes a year of free updates, plus support for the to-be-released macOS 16. The license auto-extends each year and can be cancelled any time.
