Blackmagic ATEM Mini Pro

Product Information

For professional streamers or for anyone who has a multicam setup, the ATEM Mini Pro is a must-have. It makes it so easy to switch between multiple camera angles, and offers plenty of features that would otherwise have to be pulled off with complicated software or extra add-ons.

Ethernet or USB‑C used for updating thesoftware. Control Panel Compatibility The basic functionality on the board is more than sufficient to run even complicated Zoom calls/webinars (I teach university workshops online) and is also capable of handling on-the-fly editing when creating pre-recorded content. x Program out as H.264 .mp4 file at the Streaming quality setting and at the ATEM video standard with AACaudio. Audio RecordingWhat I will say is that this is remarkably powerful yet extremely easy to use - just connect in all the devices you need and it just.... works. You can also use the USB Out to connect an external hard drive and write directly to disk. This is useful if you want to later edit a video before publishing it, or just want a direct copy of the stream without any quality loss. Obviously, if you’ve got a hard drive plugged in to the USB-C port, you can’t use the Mini Pro with your PC. Thankfully, you can still control it over Ethernet, but you won’t be able to add it to OBS or any other software without a direct connection.

Yes, you can live stream and record at the same time. The streaming quality setting will determine the quality of your recording. For example, if you set the streaming to Streaming Medium, then the recording will also be set to Streaming Medium automatically. This might result in recordings that are not as high as you like, so it might be better to choose a higher streaming quality if you want higher quality recordings. Using USB or Ethernet connection directly connected to Mac OS X or Windows computers. Includes ATEM SwitcherUtility. Configuration x 2 channel audio inputs recorded as separate 24‑bit 48KHz .wav files. Including 2 x analog 2 channel audio inputs and 8 x HDMI 2 channel embedded audioinputs. Switching All in all I can’t think of many reasons not to buy this if my main focus was on creating fast, efficient, high quality multi-camera productions on almost any level. However, do think carefully whether the original, cheaper ATEM Mini is capable of meeting your needs – as that may well have everything that most vloggers using just two cameras will actually need. ATEM Mini Pro is a new, low cost live production switcher that can record, stream and monitor video. It includes a new hardware streaming engine to allow direct streaming via Ethernet to YouTube Live, Facebook and Twitch, as well as recording direct to USB flash disks in H.264.It took me about 30 minutes from opening the box to seeing my live cameras on my monitor, including setting up 2 cameras, tripods and mics. Not bad considering in the past I’ve had to spend more than a couple of hours doing this exact set-up in the past with broadcast HDV cameras and BNC cables passing through multiple systems to get the exact same end result. SMPTE 259M, SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 296M, SMPTE 424M‑B, SMPTE 425 Level A and Level B. SDI Video Sampling Even though streaming is built in, you can also use the USB as a webcam output if the USB connection is free, so you can use a computer to live stream via video conferencing apps such as Skype and Zoom, and streaming apps such as OBS.
