The new ATEM Television Studio 4K8 is a professional live production switcher built into a broadcast control panel so it can be used for high end work while being extremely portable. This means users can use it in small churches or other venues that don't have the access for equipment racks. Users get a powerful switcher with eight standards converted 12G-SDI inputs, 10 x 12G-SDI aux outputs, four chroma keyers, two downstream keyers, SuperSource, two media players and an impressive variety of transitions. The switcher includes a whole television studio of features such as hardware streaming, recording, audio mixer, talkback, multiview and optional internal network shared storage.
With eight SDI video inputs, the ATEM Television Studio 4K8 lets users connect multiple cameras for different views of the sanctuary, auditorium or wherever a service is taking place. All video sources will re-sync to the switcher, even if they operate at different video standards.
ATEM Television Studio has a built in hardware streaming engine for live streaming to a global audience. That means customers can live stream to services such as YouTube, Facebook and Twitch in better video quality and without dropped frames.
The built in media pool stores broadcast quality graphics and animations that can be played back using the built in media players. For achieving the highest quality, all media supports RGB colorspace with alpha channel, allowing transparency and layering. The media pool can hold 20 HD or Ultra HD resolution stills.
With a built in Fairlight audio mixer, the ATEM Television Studio 4K8 makes it possible to do complex live sound mixing. The internal mixer features enough channels for all SDI inputs, as well as extra channels for the XLR, RCA and MADI inputs. The audio mixer is extremely powerful and it can be adjusted from the front panel.
