Digital Tech & Tethering Rental · Barcelona
Digital Tech & Tethering Rental in Barcelona.
The infrastructure between the camera and the result.
Professional tethering, a MacBook Pro M5 Pro workstation, reference monitoring and basic audio for video.
The gear that turns a session into a workflow. Tethering ready for Capture One, a calibrated monitor for real-time color decisions, a workstation set up for the day. Available as standalone rental (or hire) or as part of your studio production.
MACBOOK PRO M5 PRO · The Workstation
“There are sessions where the computer stops being a peripheral and becomes the center of the production. The M5 Pro lives exactly there.”
The M5 Pro chip processes the Capture One workflow in real time, renders color previews without lag and handles simultaneous transfer to SSD without anything waiting on anything. But the reason it’s in our catalog isn’t technical. It’s operational.
Some productions depend on the computer. The client is watching the screen, the photographer is making exposure and color decisions on the fly, and any slowdown turns into lost time. In those sessions, showing up with underpowered hardware isn’t a saving. It’s a risk.
That’s why we recommend it for sessions with live tethering, on-set client review, high-volume shoots and any job where the workflow can’t be interrupted.
Set up for the day. Ready from the first frame.

Special Essential · BenQ MA270UP
BenQ · MA270UP
Most external monitors show color differently from your MacBook. This one doesn’t.
27 inches, 4K UHD, glossy panel and iDevice Color Sync technology — tuned specifically to match the P3 color space of a MacBook Pro with no manual adjustment. What you see on the monitor is what the MacBook has. No interpretation, no eyeballed corrections.
In a session with on-set client review, that removes an awkward conversation. The digital tech works on the laptop, the client looks at the BenQ, and both see exactly the same thing. Included in the studio rental rate.
And if you’d rather not carry screens around, reference monitors are available as an add-on rental.
If you need digital tech gear for your production in Barcelona with nothing to set up on the day, then it makes sense for us to talk.
Frequently Asked Questions
01
What digital gear is available for the session, and what do I need to bring?
openbcn studios has MacBook Pro M5 Pro laptops for rent, including Magic Mouse, charger, docking station, and Capture One Pro and Photoshop installed. If you rent the studio, a 27" 4K Color Match monitor mounted on a camera cart is also included in the rate. Cameras, tether cables, lighting and the rest of the Essentials catalog are available as add-on rentals. Everything is ready before you arrive.
02
Is the MacBook Pro set up for Capture One, or do I need to bring my license?
Capture One Pro and Photoshop are installed on the MacBook Pro M5 Pro. You don’t need to bring a license or configure anything. What you do need to bring are your memory cards and any custom presets or color profiles you use in your usual workflow.
03
Can I rent the digital gear without renting the studio?
Yes. The whole digital catalog is available as standalone rental, with no need to book the studio. The MacBook Pro M5 Pro, connectivity kit and peripherals can be rented for productions at other locations. If the session is at openbcn studios, the full bundle comes with a preferred rate built in.
04
What if I need extra gear on the day of the session?
openbcn studios works with audiovisual rental suppliers in Barcelona to arrange same-day deliveries when there’s availability. It isn’t guaranteed, but it’s a real resource. The best way to avoid last-minute needs is to confirm your gear list in advance — we review every booking before the session precisely to catch these needs early.
