Saving your Settings
1 Go to the menu bar in ATEM Software Control and select File>Save As.
2 A window will open asking for a file name and destination folder. After you have made
your selection, click Save.
3 You’ll now see the Save Switcher State panel containing checkboxes for all the
available settings on each block of your ATEM switcher. The Select All checkbox is
enabled by default. If you save with Select All enabled, ATEM Software Control saves
your entire switcher settings. If you want to choose specific settings to save, you can
deselect settings individually, or to remove all settings click Select All once to deselect
them. Now you can select specific settings you want to save.
4 Click Save.
ATEM Software Control saves your settings as an XML file together with a folder for
ATEMMedia Pool contents.
With ATEM Software Control you can save and restore all your switcher settings for your
liveproduction, including key settings, transition styles, media pool contents and more
After you have saved your settings you can quick save at any time by selecting File>Save, or by
pressing Command S for Mac, or Ctrl S for Windows. Doing so will not overwrite your previous
save, but will add a new XML file to your destination folder which is clearly identified with a time
and date stamp. This means you can always restore a previous save if necessary.
