RED Rocket-X Driver 2.1

RED Rocket-X Driver is the system software that enables your workstation to recognize and fully utilize the RED Rocket-X PCIe accelerator for REDCODE RAW workflows. Once installed, supported post-production applications can offload R3D decode and debayer to the hardware, resulting in smoother high‑resolution playback and faster transcodes.

Key benefits:

• Establishes reliable communication between the operating system and the RED Rocket-X card, including firmware management.
• Accelerates decode and debayer of REDCODE RAW media for editing, color grading, and finishing in compatible applications.
• Improves timeline responsiveness and reduces render times for dailies, editorial, and delivery.

Ideal for editors, colorists, and DITs working with 4K–6K+ RED camera footage.

Requirements: a compatible RED Rocket-X card installed in a PCIe slot or qualified Thunderbolt expansion chassis, a supported operating system, and applications that integrate RED hardware acceleration. For best results, match the driver version to your OS and software stack as recommended in the release notes.
