ATEM Production Switchers

Our new range of ATEM Production Switchers now have more powerful features, smaller size, lower cost and the ability to customize your solution for your needs and budget.
ATEM Production Switchers now start from a low $2,495.

ATEM Production Switchers will now be sold independent of the control panel, so you can start at a lower cost, using the chassis and a software control panel for Mac or Windows. When you want to add a hardware-based control panel, then the ATEM Broadcast Panels can be purchased separately.

The new software control panel software for Mac and Windows lets you use ATEM switchers from your laptop. There are two models of ATEM switcher and both include the ATEM Software Control Panel at no extra cost.

The 1 M/E Production Switcher model is 2 rack units size, and includes 8 total inputs of SDI, HDMI and component video. This model has 3 aux. outputs, and a single Multi View for monitoring. The 2 M/E Product Switcher model is a larger 3 rack units in size, and includes two separate M/E rows, a total of 16 video inputs, 6 aux. outputs, 2 Multi Views for monitoring, redundant power input and SuperSource™ multi layer compositing.

Both models include 4 upstream keyers each with independent chroma, shaped and linear keying in the transition block, as well as 2 downstream keyers, stinger effects, graphic wipe, built in DVE, multi view, 2 GB of memory for still and clips playback, USB 3.0 and independent fade to black. There is even HD down conversion and lots of analog connections for plugging into any location equipment.

These are incredibly powerful switchers but also include lots of HDMI so you can take advantage of the new consumer cameras for high quality HD sources. Each input as a full frame sync, so you don't even need genlock!

The ATEM 1 M/E Production switcher will ship in May for $2,495 and the ATEM 1 M/E Broadcast Panel will also ship in May for $4,995. The 2 M/E models will ship later.
