The Blackmagic Design ATEM Production Studio 4K is a powerful, affordable live switcher. It is very popular for event production. It lets you create professional broadcast-quality events easily and on a budget.
Here are 3 key benefits of using it for your next live event:
The switcher supports 3840 × 2160 video. This gives you 4 times the resolution of standard HD. Your live streams or venue screens will look incredibly sharp.
It comes with 8 total inputs: 4 HDMI and 4 SDI ports. This means you can plug in almost anything. You can mix consumer cameras, laptops for presentations, and professional video gear all in the same show.
You do not need a lot of extra gear to check your video feeds. The switcher has a multi-view output. This sends all your camera feeds, your preview screen, and your final live output to a single TV or monitor.
