You can also select the type of effect you want including mix which does a smooth transition between sources and dip which fades via a colour during the transition. Or use fun DVE effects that move the image off screen when transitioning between sources.

Video cameras with HDMI outputs are dramatically better quality than simple webcams as they use higher quality lenses and have better low light sensitivity. All video sources will re‑sync to the switcher if they operate at different video standards so you don't have to worry about connecting video devices as they all just work. Cameras with HDMI often support interchangeable lenses so you can change to wide angle lenses for wide shots and zoom lenses for close‑ups. Imagine taking advantage of the low light capability of better cameras for theater production weddings school concerts and music videos.
OUTPUTS TO HDMI VIDEO AND USB WEBCAM

SECRET BROADCAST FEATURES BUILT IN
While ATEM Mini is easy to use it's also hiding very powerful broadcast features. If you're interested in a career in the television industry then ATEM Mini is perfect for training as it has the same features as switchers in high end broadcast studios. You get an ATEM Advanced Chroma Key Fairlight audio mixer DVE still store for graphics and much more. Simply run the free ATEM Software Control app on Mac or Windows while connected via USB or Ethernet to access the extended features of the ATEM Mini. With a little experimentation you can learn how to produce broadcast quality live production. Only ATEM Mini is a true broadcast switcher hidden in a tiny and affordable design.
INCLUDES FREE ATEM SOFTWARE CONTROL PANEL
The ATEM Software Control app unlocks the hidden power of ATEM Mini and allows access to every feature in the switcher. ATEM Software Control features a visual switcher user interface with parameter palettes for making quick adjustments. Although you can normally connect via USB if you connect using Ethernet it's possible for multiple users to connect to ATEM Mini using separate copies of ATEM Software Control on different computers. The software lets you access full audio mixing with effects load still frames and even do advanced macro programming. You can even save the switcher state as an XML file. If you need clip playback you can even control HyperDeck disk recorders via Ethernet.
DVE FOR PICTURE IN PICTURE TRANSITIONS AND EFFECTS
One of the most exciting features on ATEM Mini is the digital video effects processor commonly referred to as a DVE that allows picture in picture effects and crazy DVE transitions. The DVE lets you create professional picture in picture effects with customizable 3D borders shadows and lighting. The image quality is the same as high end ATEM switcher models and the DVE supports position resize and scale all in real time. The DVE can also be used to create amazing transitions with 16 different DVE squeeze and DVE push effects for adding excitement to your programming. The DVE features a fly key so you can use it with custom graphics to create graphic wipe transitions.
TRUE BROADCAST STYLE MIX EFFECTS SWITCHING
Although ATEM Mini works in cut bus mode when first purchased it can also be changed to program/preview style operation which is the way large broadcasters use live production switchers. Cut bus switching is easy and selecting any input will instantly switch to that source. However if you want to operate ATEM Mini like a true professional then you can change the switcher to program/preview using ATEM Software Control. Mix effects operation allows a source to be selected but it won't be put on air until you press the cut or auto buttons. That 2 step program/preview process means fewer mistakes. Program/preview operation is best for training students for a career in broadcast.
MONITOR SOURCES AND STATUS WITH ATEM MINI PRO MULTIVIEW
When doing larger live productions with multiple cameras it’s very useful to see all your video sources at the same time on a single monitor. The ATEM Mini Pro model includes a professional multiview that lets you see all 4 video inputs plus preview and program on a single HDMI television or monitor. Simply select M/V on the front panel video output control buttons to select multiview. Each camera view includes tally indicators so you know when each source is on-air and each view also has custom labels and audio meters. You can also see the media player so you know what graphic is selected. Plus multiview even includes status for recording streaming and the Fairlight audio mixer.
BUILT IN AUDIO MIXER WITH 6 BAND EQ COMPRESSOR AND LIMITER
With a built in Fairlight audio mixer ATEM Mini makes it possible to do complex live sound mixing. The internal mixer features a total of 12 channels so you can mix audio from all sources. That’s audio from all HDMI sources and the 2 stereo mic inputs. Each input channel features the highest quality 6 band parametric EQ and compressor limiter expander and noise gate as well as full panning. You can even set up the software to auto mix between inputs as you switch AFV or to live mix multiple sources together all at once. All this audio power can be controlled via ATEM Software Control or you can add a Mackie compatible panel or even a massive Fairlight Audio Console.
USE ETHERNET CONTROL FOR WIRELESS INTERNET STREAMING
ATEM Software Control connects to ATEM Mini via USB or Ethernet however the benefit of Ethernet is you can use it to share your computer's internet connection for streaming on the ATEM Mini Pro model. Simply connect ATEM Mini Pro via Ethernet and set your computer to share its internet. Using Ethernet is easy and when launching the software just select the ATEM Mini model. If you are streaming on ATEM Mini Pro also set your computer to share its internet. Now you get both control and streaming via the single Ethernet cable. This provides amazing mobility as you can connect your computer to the internet using wireless connections such as WiFi or even 4G and 5G tethered phones.
CONTROL AND COLOUR BALANCE CAMERAS
For a more broadcast style workflow you can remote control your cameras from ATEM Mini. Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K and 6K models can work as studio cameras with control sent via the HDMI connection to ATEM Mini. That means you can control the camera settings as well as the camera’s colour corrector from ATEM Software Control. Imagine changing ISO and tint plus lens iris focus and zoom so camera operators can focus on the shot. There are two types of control interface CCU layout for traditional tint colour control and a DaVinci colour corrector interface allowing the camera’s built in DaVinci colour corrector to add incredible digital film looks to your live production.
DEVELOP CUSTOM REMOTE CONTROL SOLUTIONS
The Ethernet connection also allows customized control solutions. Even though ATEM Mini includes ATEM Software Control you can use the Ethernet to control the ATEM remotely anywhere in the world. A popular workflow is to use the Ethernet to allow the ATEM Mini to be positioned near the HDMI cameras but the control is positioned remotely in a quieter space such as a control room. Imagine using the switcher from a control room and building a professional broadcasting studio where the control room can be separated away from the performance or interviews. Ethernet allows you to add as many panels as you like all at the same time or you can build custom solutions using the developer SDK.
RECORD TO AN EXTERNAL HYPERDECK RECORDER
The HDMI program output is perfect for connecting ATEM Mini to an external recorder or monitor. ATEM Mini supports recorders such as Blackmagic Video Assist. You get a high quality output with switcher program video plus live audio from the internal audio mixer. The HDMI output can even be connected to video projectors in large venues. If you connect ATEM Software Control you can even ISO record from one of the inputs. Plus on the more advanced ATEM Mini Pro model you can generate multiple formats by recording from the HDMI program output in ProRes while simultaneously recording the H.264 video stream to a USB flash disk.
