Blackmagic Design ATEM Mini Pro HDMI Live Stream Switcher

Blackmagic Design ATEM Mini Pro HDMI Live Stream Switcher

Similar to its predecessor, the ATEM Mini, the ATEM Mini Pro from Blackmagic Design is a four-input live production switcher with an integrated control panel designed for multicamera live streaming up to HD video to the internet or broadcast applications from gaming consoles, corporate computer streams, or HD cameras. Along with the software control update, the Mini Pro builds on the Mini with features such as live stream data rate and status information, a built-in hardware encoder, simultaneous recording to USB drives, drive hot-swapping with the Blackmagic MultiDock, added record, and stream buttons, stream caching, a timecode generator, program preview multiview, tally support, and support for Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 6K and 4K to utilize as your broadcast sources.

New Features:

• The same rear panel as ATEM Mini with added buttons and software features
• Stream video up to 1080p HD
• Quick stream, on-air, and record buttons
• Hardware encoder so there’s no need for additional streaming software
• Control and configure timecode, stream status
• Full support and control features for BMPCC 6K and 4K cameras
• Simultaneous USB recording
• Integration with MultiDock for live hard drive switching
• Customize advanced settings with XML files
• Software multiview with program previews, graphics, record status, on-air status, audio meters
• Program preview input and output buttons
• Tally light control for BMPCC 6K/4K cameras
• Automatic timecode sync for all cameras Transitions

Available transitions include:

• Cut: When you press the cut button, ATEM instantly changes from your current program source to the preview source.
  Mix: the mix, or dissolve, gradually transitions from one source to the next by creating a smooth blend. You can set custom timings to manually blend the transition.
• Dip: just like mix transitions, a dip transition is a gradual blend that includes either a solid color, graphic, or another clip between the two video sources. Dips to black or white between sources are the most popular, or you can use logos or sponsor graphics.
• Wipe: built-in wipe patterns include circles, diamonds, squares, and more. Shapes and patterns can be inverted or softened and can even have customized colored borders.
• DVE: with the powerful built-in Digital Video Effects processor, or DVE, you can push, spin, squeeze, or swoosh your live video from one camera to the next with incredible built-in transitions. DVE transitions can be flip-flopped and reversed, giving you even more transition options.
• Upstream Keyer
  Layer live video over other video sources or graphics with the Upstream Keyer.
• Luma key: luma keys work best with high-contrast images, like white elements on a black background, so you can use the contrast to cut the black background and replace it with live video or graphics.
• Linear key: get clean, high-quality results with linear keying by using two separate sources for the fill and the key to create one video image.
• Chroma key: used every day for TV weather forecasts, chroma keys are a powerful way of combining live images in real-time.
• Pattern key: combine live images with any of the built-in wipe patterns to combine live images or graphics with geometric shapes.
• Downstream Keyers:
  The ATEM Mini switcher includes one downstream keyer, so you can add high-quality graphics like logos, bugs, and titles from the built-in media player over the live stream program output.
• Audio Mixer:
  The built-in audio mixer lets you control both camera and external audio with precision level and balance adjustments on all six available audio inputs and two channels.
• Monitor Output:
  The HDMI monitor output allows you to see your sources, graphics, preview, and program output on a single screen.
• Media Player: Eliminate external character generators by storing up to 20 broadcast-quality RGBA graphic files in the media pool. The one media player appears as input sources to your switcher.
