The world’s fastest live production switcher control
software!
Directly control your ATEM switcher from your desktop or
laptop using the included free ATEM Software Control for Mac or Windows. You
can load the media pool with graphics, adjust focus, iris and color balance
cameras, change switcher settings, and even mix audio from your cameras. You
can even run multiple copies for busy live productions when more than one
person is working on the job, all from the most elegant and fastest to use
software available.
Switcher Control Tabs - Control or setup your ATEM
- The ATEM Software Control panel is designed with separate
tabs so it's easy to find the controls you need. The switcher tab is for
switcher control and includes palettes for adjusting keys, transitions, media
players and more. The settings tab changes the switcher settings and customizes
the multi view, and the media pool tab manages graphics. A dedicated tab for
the audio mixer control includes faders and meters for every input and master
level control.
Select Sources - Live switch your sources!
- You get the most efficient live production workflow with
ATEM! The program bus is always live, so when you select a source it will
immediately go on air! Take advantage of the advanced live switching workflow
by using the preview bus, with selections you make appearing in the preview
screen. You can see what you have ready to go on air, and take them live with a
press of the cut or auto buttons! Using the preview bus helps you see the next
transition source so you can confidently control your live production.
Complete control of your Transitions - Control your Mix, Wipe, Dip, DVE and Stingers fast
Transition Control
- ATEM Switchers are designed to give you fast and flexible
control during live production operation. The transition control block lets you
quickly select your transition style, you can choose between mix, dip, wipe or
even DVE and animated stingers if you are using the ATEM 1 M/E or 2 M/E
Production Studio 4K switcher. Simply push the cut button for an immediate
transition, or select timed automatic transitions that are triggered by pushing
the AUTO button. You also get full manual control with the fader bar!
Transition Settings
- ATEM gives you precise transitions adjustments! The switcher
palettes are on the right side of the switcher control and are fast and logical
to use. When you open the transition palette you can see every adjustable
option for each type of transition. Simply choose the transition type and you
can adjust all the individual parameters. You get so many options you will
always find the perfect style for your production as there is almost no limit
to the creative transitions you can create!
Wipe Transitions
- Create over 100 different styles from the 18 built in wipe
pattens. Using the ATEM Software control transition palette, you can select
your ideal wipe pattern, change its symmetry or even invert it! Wipe patterns
can be softened or have colored borders with customizable width and softness.
You can even feed live video inside a wipe border creating interesting
geometric patterns with three live video streams at the same time. You get
amazing wipe transition flexibility with ATEM Production Studio 4K switchers!
DVE Settings
- With the ATEM 1 M/E and 2 M/E Production Studio 4K models
that include the built in DVE, you can push, spin, squeeze and swoosh your live
video from one camera to the next with powerful built in DVE transitions. The
transition palette gives you precise control over the multiple DVE transition
options. Choose from over 35 dramatic DVE moves that will bring an extra level
of excitement to your production. DVE transitions can be flipped and reversed
giving you even more creative options.
Camera Control
- Get full control of your cameras right from the ATEM
software control! The new Blackmagic Studio Camera can be controlled via the
SDI program feed to the camera, so you can control its built in camera settings
and full color corrector, all remotely from the ATEM software control panel!
There are two types of control interface, a CCU layout for traditional camera
control style, or a color corrector interface which is the same as DaVinci
Resolve’s primary color corrector so you can use all your color correction skills
from DaVinci Resolve for adding incredible creativity to live production!
SuperSource Control
- Available on the ATEM 2 M/E Production Studio 4K, Super
Source lets you add multi box picture-in-picture compositions to your live
broadcasts quickly and easily! Using the ATEM Software Control it’s easy to
choose a preset SuperSource layout, customize it, or create your own from
scratch. You get all the controls you need in one place, making it super fast
to choose and save presets, add artwork, and adjust individual box parameters
including size, position, border, crop, shadow, and more!
On Air - Select keyers on air live!
- Once your upstream settings are customized, the fastest way
to bring them on air is to use the ON AIR button! The on air buttons enable or
disable the key signal, plus they also indicate which keys are live on air.
When you’re switching live it's vital to know which keyers are active so you
can select it as part of the next transition. Each upstream keyer has its own
dedicated on air button so you will get 1 on the ATEM Production Studio 4K and
4 on the advanced ATEM 1 M/E Production Studio 4K model.
Keyer Control - Get perfect multi layering
- When you need fast, precision keying you can use the
software controls to adjust keying with high accuracy. Key backgrounds are
never perfectly flat, so it’s important to have easily adjustable controls that
let you quickly and precisely fine tune your key settings in real time for the
best quality live broadcast results. The ATEM Software Control gives you precise
control over every key parameter and you can use your mouse or trackpad to
quickly adjust keys for the perfect result.
Fader Bar - Get full manual control
- The most experienced vision switchers know that sometimes
the only way to get a dramatic multi camera mix during live performances is
with manual fader control! Automatic transitions are smooth but often do not
have the subtlety needed when mixing between wide and close up angles of
performances like music performances. With manual control you can mix shots
together and hold the mix until the right moment before completing the
transition. The fader bar also gives you manual control of wipe, key and even
DVE transitions.
Auto Transition - Simply perfect transitions!
- Smooth automatic transitions are easy with the auto
transition button. Simply set your preferred transition rate between 1 and 250
frames using the ATEM software control, and every time you hit the AUTO button
your ATEM Production Studio 4K switcher will perform a perfectly timed, smooth
transition. You can use auto transitions for every part of the ATEM switcher
including dissolves, dip, mix, fading on key sources, wipes and animated DVE
transitions.
Preview Transition - Check your transitions
- The PREV TRANS button lets you rehearse and preview complicated
transitions before you take them on air! Your ATEM Production Studio preview
video can be seen on your multi view screen or on a monitor connected to the
switchers SDI preview output. Preview transition lets you verify the most
complicated transition with mix, dip, wipe, DVE and even keys without affecting
your program output. Preview transitions is the best way to ensure your
transition is perfect before going to air.
Fade to Black - The perfect program end!
- Ideal for the start and end of your production or fading
down for commercial breaks, fade to black (FTB) is the absolute last layer of
the switcher and ensures all the layers are faded down together. Once the
program output has been faded to black, the FTB button will flash red until it
is pressed again. Selecting fade to black again will then fade up from black at
the same rate. With a dedicated fade to black button, you can be sure all
sources are faded cleanly in sync for the perfect program end!
Full Audio Mixer - Control levels, balance and more!
- The built in multi channel audio mixer lets you adjust the
level and balance of the audio from each switcher input, plus the additional
HiFi and balanced audio input connections. Each audio input is metered so you
can always see the levels of each source accurately. You can set the audio to
auto fade up and down as the switcher sources are changed and the mixed audio
is then embedded into all video outputs!
Switcher Snapshot - Save the switcher state!
- No matter how complicated your switcher set up is, you can
quickly save it to your computer for fast recall any time you need it. Save
complete or partial switcher setups as time stamped XML files so you'll never
accidentally overwrite a saved setup. Save switcher positions, keys, wipes, DVE
moves and even your entire media pool content! Any updated media is added to
the media folder and mapped to the latest XML as you keep saving. That's
perfect for moving your job setup between ATEM switchers.
Media - Simple drag and drop media download!
- ATEM features easy download of all your RGBA graphics and
clips. From the software control media
tab you can manage the built in media pool and see the status of each loaded
graphic. You can drag and drop frames into the media pool spaces and they will
automatically download to the switcher. You can also download graphics direct
from the included Photoshop CC plug in! The Media pool can be saved as part of
a switcher snapshot, so you can save your switcher settings and graphics on a
single disk.
Switcher Settings - Get full control over your ATEM switcher settings for any
type of live production!
- When you're setting up your job you can use the switcher
settings tab to adjust the video format of your switcher as well as the media
pool size and input labeling. You can also fully configure the multi view
output by arranging the camera inputs and program view into 4 different
arrangements. Setting up your switcher is so easy with the ATEM software
control because everything has been laid out so that settings are fast to
change as required. That makes setting up for new jobs easy!
Control Options - The most portable switcher control software available!
- Now you can take your ATEM Production Studio 4K switcher on
the road because the included ATEM Software Control runs from your laptop. You
get complete switcher control that includes live switching, keyer and
transition control, loading the media pool, all switcher settings and even
audio mixing control. The ATEM switcher and laptop are so small you can fit
them all in a bag or backpack. Now you can go to any event as there is no more
portable solution than the ATEM!
ATEM Broadcast Panels - Add the power of a hardware control panel to your ATEM!
For the ultimate in professional control you can add an
optional ATEM Broadcast Panel to your ATEM switchers! Nothing beats a dedicated
