ATEM STUDIO BOX
Mobile Video Control Room for Professional SDI and Consumer HDMI Cameras
ATEM Studio BOX is a cheap mobile video studio based on Blackmagic Design ATEM 1 M / E multi-function Production Switcher that encloses the functions of a video switcher (HDMI, SDI and analog inputs) with lots of effects and an audio switcher.
The same HDMI inputs can be used for signal input from computer (video recorded, titles etc ...).
For live productions of all kinds, the ATEM 1 M/E represents an extremely affordable way to get in the game at a broadcast-quality level, switching HD and SD sources such as cameras with HDMI or SDI output, VTRs/DDRs, etc., and adding keys and graphics. Whether you'll operate via mouse & laptop or you're ready to switch your sources from a control panel, you're still operating at a very high level, with a 10-bit signal path throughout (depending on your video system, of course).
Broadcast-Grade Production Switcher
ATEM switchers include advanced technology and unique, powerful features, all built into a familiar M/E setup that's fast and easy to use. With an advanced broadcast SDI-based design, ATEM also includes loads of HDMI connections for connecting low cost HDMI consumer cameras! Now you can get started with live production, producing professional video right out of the gate
Premium Quality
For the highest-quality video with extremely low processing delay, ATEM features a fully digital 10-bit design. This means you get the highest quality available from cameras, servers, and character generators, with true 10-bit video quality maintained throughout the entire signal path. Get better chroma keying and seamless layering from HDMI and SDI sources so all your video maintains that pristine, broadcast-quality look. Even ATEM's built-in analog video inputs and outputs feature low-noise A/D converters for incredible analog quality
Incredible Features
ATEM includes all these broadcast features at an affordable price: You get four upstream keyers, each with independent chroma, pattern, shaped, and linear keying. You also get two downstream keyers and independent fade to black. Add unprecedented creativity with graphic wipes and stinger transitions using the two built-in media players. For the ultimate in professional live production, you can use the built-in DVE for amazing DVE transitions or key repositioning. When you're on the move, the built-in multi-view monitoring totally eliminates monitoring costs because all cameras, preview, and program can be viewed on a single SDI or HDMI monitor – multi-view has outputs for both
Built-in USB 3.0 Capture and Scopes
ATEM includes support for USB 3.0 capture direct to your PC. Get incredible-quality 10-bit captures in full HD resolution for a direct file-based master of your production. Because USB capture is connected to Aux 1, you can capture program or even clean feeds of your programming. ATEM includes Blackmagic's Media Express software for easy capture to AVI or DPX files. If you need high-quality waveform monitoring, ATEM also includes Blackmagic Design UltraScope software so you can use the USB connection for incredible PC-based scopes
More Connections
ATEM is a professional broadcast SDI switcher that also includes loads of HDMI connections, so you can start affordably with consumer HDMI cameras then move up to SDI cameras as your budget grows. Unlike with other switchers, every video input features an automatic frame re-synchronizer, so you can plug in any device and it always works. Imagine getting started with incredible multi-camera production using the latest low-cost and high-quality HD consumer cameras. ATEM is perfect at locations where you need to adapt to the environment because it includes SDI, HDMI, and component/composite inputs and outputs. You can send live program output to anyone who needs it because ATEM includes six program outputs in HD-SDI, HDMI, HD component, and USB 3.0, as well as permanently downconverted SD-SDI and composite video. All ATEM models include built-in black, bars, media player, and color generator sources. The ATEM multi-viewer includes both SDI and HDMI outputs, plus you get 3 Aux outputs for connecting to stage screens and venue monitoring. The ATEM 1 M/E model includes a total of eight simultaneous inputs with four HDMI, one component/composite, and four SDI/HD-SDI connections
Adobe Photoshop Plug-in
For incredible character and title generation, every ATEM includes a Photoshop plug-in that lets you instantly download graphics and titles from Photoshop directly into the ATEM media pool. Imagine the moment a live event happens, you can update your Photoshop file and instantly download it into the ATEM media player: Now you can get titles on air in seconds. Because Photoshop is the standard tool for millions of graphic designers, it's easy to get help to create your own custom graphics. ATEM supports rendered stills and clip sequences from Photoshop, After Effects, Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro, and many more programs
Stinger Effects
ATEM includes stinger transitions for animated transitions and graphic wipes, and because there is a separate keyer for stingers, all your upstream and downstream keyers are completely free for other uses. Stingers also include sound effects, so you can create exciting custom transitions that are limited only by your creativity. You can customize the transition point, so you get seamless stinger effects – plus the animation in the media player is automatically triggered, so you get perfect results every time
Built-in Media Players
ATEM includes two built-in media players, so you free up switcher video inputs plus save thousands of dollars by eliminating the need for external character generators and servers. Because media players are built into ATEM, you get a fantastic portable solution. Media players include 2 GB of memory for 32 stills, and the two live clips support both fill and key channels. Media players are great for animated logos, backgrounds, lower thirds, bugs, stinger transitions, and more. You can route media players into any switcher input, upstream keyer, downstream keyer, background, or into the transition block for stinger transitions
