Elegant and Intuitive Interface

While the ATEM model has been around for years in the broadcast industry it wasn’t that accessible to smaller or home productions due to size and cost. This means that you can mix and match cameras, and the ATEM Mini Extreme will ensure all feeds are in the same format ready for streaming. ATEM Mini is perfect for interviews as you can connect multiple cameras for close ups of the host, or interviewee, as well as wide shots plus ATEM Mini is so small the host can even switch in small studios. Plus ATEM Mini Pro and Extreme models support live streaming to YouTube, Facebook and more! Using USB or Ethernet connection directly connected to Mac OS X or Windows computers. Includes ATEM Switcher Utility. The ATEM Mini Pro ISO and Extreme ISO models allow you to edit your live event as they can record multiple video streams, including clean feeds of all inputs and program, all at the same time! Media pool images used are also saved with the video files. The video files include metadata tags such as synced timecode and camera numbers.
