Setting Audio Input and Output Behavior
The 'audio' tab lets you control the nature of the audio follow video feature, plus the talkback
monitoring settings and mix minus settings.
Audio Follow Video Behavior
You can change the nature of the audio follow video feature for when switching sources.
For example, select 'normal' to use the standard default crossfade duration between sources,
or select 'transition' to use a custom transition rate set in the transition palette.
TIP For the AFV transition setting to work as expected, make sure you have AFV
enabled on both sources you want to switch between. For example, if you have
camera 1 currently on air, and you want to switch to camera 2 with a custom transition
rate, make sure the audio mixer has AFV enabled on camera 1 and camera 2.
Talkback via SDI Channels 15 and 16
You may want to loop one of your ATEM’s outputs to an input to achieve a desired effect, but in
some cases this can cause a feedback loop in SDI audio channels 15 and 16. If this occurs, you
can mute SDI channels 15 and 16 by clicking the mute checkboxes for each of the SDI inputs.
Mix Minus Settings
The mix minus settings on SDI outputs let you mute the audio from their return program feed.
For example, when doing live crosses there can be a delay in the audio which may be
distracting when the presenter can hear his or her own voice delayed on the program return
feed. Enabling mix minus for an input will output all program audio in the mix, minus that
particular input.
XLR Inputs
If you are plugging in an audio source via RCA using an RCA to XLR adapter, then you can
change the input level on the XLR input from XLR to RCA. This boosts the signal at the input
tocompensate for the lower output levels from equipment using RCA connectors, for example
HiFi audio equipment.
Split Audio
On ATEM Television Studio Pro 4K you can split a mono input signal into two separate mono
channels. This is helpful for mixing a mono input into both channels on the stereo master
output. You can also add a stereo simulation effect using the advanced Fairlight controls on
theaudio page.
Click on the desired input checkbox to split the channels for that input.
Multi View Settings
The multi view settings allow you to set the multi view orientation. The 8 smaller windows are
fully routable so you can monitor any switcher source. By default, external inputs 1 - 8 are routed
to multi view source windows 1 to 8, but simply click the respective drop down menus to select
what sources are viewed on each window!
The position of the multi view preview and program views can be swapped by clicking on the
toggle button located between them.
Audio meters can be turned on or off for all the switcher sources and program view by enabling
the ‘All On’ button in the multi view settings, or you can turn them on or off individually by
clicking the audio meter icon in each view.
