![]() ![]() If the ATEM audio works for you then fine, but I guess I feel it has a LOOONG way to go before I'd be happy with it. Options for audio delay (because delay on an input channel usually isn't where you need it) and more inputs/mic preamps are all easy situations for an external mixer. I also frequently need unique mixes for ISO recorders. The main mix for PGM, maybe a secondary mix for recording/archive, and another mix to satisfy commentators. I almost always am in need of several mixes for a show. There is still only one mixing bus and that I find very limiting. I see that the TVS pro 4k has the upgraded fairlight audio, which adds sorely needed dynamics and EQ. I only have the 2M/E, 1M/E4k, and 4M/E 4k models to test with, all 3 of these models work. Since this control passes through the ATEM software, I would expect this functionality exists for all ATEM models. You can control the ATEM faders as long as the ATEM software is running and connected to the ATEM, but you do not have to have the audio page displayed. It supports many other configs (midi, network) but this was the only one that seemed to work. You also have to configure the x-touch to use Mackie control mode (MC) over USB. As I suspected, the x-touch has to be connected to the computer running the ATEM software via USB. So I have the X-Touch (not mini, not compact, not ONE, it's the biggest model with scribble strips and jog wheel) controlling the ATEM audio faders this morning. At $1800, I will probably end up bringing two separate audio consoles. I am hoping to find something that will do it for no more than around $700. ![]() There is a behringer unit I found that will, but it is $1800, and I am hesitant to spend that much on this. It would be convenient to have a console that could control both discrete audio feeds and the software at the same time. In the field, you rarely have a setup that works for every scenario. If it's a single guy at a nearby podium or interview type stuff, I'll use discrete audio, but might still want NAT sound from a camera. ![]() If I am 400 yards away from the cameras, I'm running fiber, and will probably go embedded. It all depends on the layout of the shoot and the audio needs. Sometimes I have videos I play from Hyperdeck shuttles that don't have a discrete audio output. Sometimes I use discrete audio for my main audio, but use nat sound embedded from cameras. $Global:lastMacroStatus = $atem.Versatility. Write-Host “ATEM controle software must be installed and have connected to switcher at least one time” But at this time it is pretty much tailored to how I use the X. I am trying to make as many things as possible configurable through the file. Write-host “Can’t connect to ATEM on $($ATEMipAddrss).” Control your ATEM Mini (and more) with a Midi Controll Surface such as the Behringer X-Touch Mini (and probably more in the future). ![]() $Global:atem = New-Object SwitcherLib.Switcher($ATEMipAddress) $DocumentsPath = ::GetFolderPath(“MyDocuments”) ‘\windowspowershell\SwitcherLib.dll’ $ATEMipAddress = (Get-ItemProperty -path ‘HKCU:\Software\Blackmagic Design\ATEM Software Control’).ipAddress Here is a very simple example to show how to detect the macro number that is selected on the panel. If you create a macro that only has a Pause command, it can be used to trigger a function within PowerShell. This is when you have to resort to 3 rd party scripting solutions like my PowerShell ATEM scripting solution.Īn example of this is animation of Supersource box positions which I converted from another popular scripting platform called JustMacros (based on LUA script but has not been updated for years).Īlthough I can trigger PowerShell scripts from many devices such as Midi controllers, X-Keys and StreamDecks, I wanted to provide a way of doing it from the Blackmagic Design hardware panelīy monitoring the macro status using a timer function, you can detect when a macro is running. Out of the box ATEM Macros can be a bit limiting as they can’t save and return to a particular state as there is no memory or variable storage capability. If you have a Blackmagic hardware panel, you might want to use the macro buttons to do complex automation of things like DVE or Supersource animations. ![]()
