Use the joystick control keypad to select up to 100 macros to record and run. Simply type in the
desired macro number and press‘cam’ to select your macro to run, or macro slot to record.
Recording Macros using an ATEM2M/E Broadcast Panel
You can record and run macros using your ATEM 2 M/E Broadcast Panel independently of
ATEM Software Control. All actions on the ATEM Software Control switcher page can be
performed using your hardware panel. If you need to mix audio, arrange graphics in the media
pool, or adjust camera settings, simply access those settings using ATEM Software Control.
Dedicated macros buttons are used to record and run macros on the ATEM 2 M/E Broadcast
Panel, or you can use the system control M/E 1 or M/E 2 soft menu buttons, which also provide
additional macros functions. The names of your macro buttons are displayed in the source
names display by pressing the show names soft button. Macro names longer than can be
shown in the source names display are shown in their entirety in the system control M/E 1 or
M/E 2 LED displays.
The M/E 1 and M/E 2 system control blocks are used depending on how many ATEM switchers
are connected to your panel. For example, if you have two ATEM switchers connected, you can
access up to 100 macros for each M/E block. The macros menus for each block are
exactly the same.
Recording a macro is easy. Select a macro slot by pressing any of the 20 macro buttons in the
source select bus. Shift select if you want a macro slot up to 40. To select macro slots above
40use the numeric keypad under the joystick control block. Simply type in a number between
1 to 100 and press the cam button to confirm your selection. Another method is by turning the
knob under the system control LED display. The same methods are used to recall and run
macros during your live production.
