Hyperdecks
If you are running ATEM switchers 6.8 or newer, you can connect up to 4 Blackmagic
HyperDeck Studio model disk recorders and control them using ATEM Software
Control’s HyperDecks palette. For more information refer to the ‘HyperDeck Control’
section of this manual.
TIP The ‘capture’ tab supports legacy ATEM Production Switcher models with
USBcapture features.
Using the Audio Mixer
The audio tab is used to mix audio sources connected to any ATEM switcher via HDMI, SDI,
external audio and also from the built-in media players in ATEM 1 M/E, 2 M/E, and 4 M/E
switcher models.
Cameras, media players and external audio sources are listed along the top of the audio mixer
along with the master audio output for the program outputs of the switcher.
Below each audio source is an audio level meter, a fader for setting the maximum audio level,
and a knob for setting the left/right audio channel balance. The master fader on the right side of
the audio mixer is used to set the gain on the audio level on the SDI and HDMI program outputs
and has its own audio level meter. The monitor fader and buttons appear below the master
fader and set independent audio levels and also allow solo monitoring on the audio outputs.
The buttons below each audio level meter determine whether audio is always available for
mixing or only when the source is on air. The solo, or headphones, button determines whether
the audio source should be used for solo audio monitoring. You can monitor through the
switchers XLR monitor output on the rear panel of ATEM Production Studio switchers or
ATEMBroadcast Studio switchers.
The audio mixer displays tally lights for any audio sources that are
currently on air or when AFV is selected, as well as audio level, audio
balance and buttons for selecting which audio should be used.
