Shaping your Audio Mix using Advanced Fairlight Controls
ATEM SDI has advanced Fairlight audio controls that let you enhance and refine the quality
of sound on each input and master output, including input level controls, a6band parametric
equalizer and powerful dynamics settings.
This section of the manual shows the different Fairlight audio controls you can use to shape and
optimize the audio mix in your live production.
