NEW IN UNOPEN BOX

The Blackmagic Design ATEM 2 M/E Production Studio 4K is a high-end live production switcher designed for 4K broadcast, live events, and post-production workflows. Here are its key technical details:

Key Features:

1. 2 M/E (Mix Effects) Architecture:

   • The ATEM 2 M/E Production Studio 4K features a 2 M/E switcher, allowing for two independent program outputs with full control over the mix and effects. This makes it suitable for high-end productions requiring multiple layers of video processing.

2. 4K Resolution Support:

   • It supports 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160) resolution at up to 60 frames per second, with full 12G-SDI input and output capabilities. This makes it future-proof for 4K and higher-end broadcast environments.

3. Inputs and Outputs:

   • Inputs:
     • 20 12G-SDI video inputs (supporting SD, HD, and Ultra HD formats)
     • Support for both 6G-SDI and 12G-SDI for 4K/Ultra HD workflows.
   • Outputs:
     • 12G-SDI Program and Aux outputs
     • 2x Multi-View outputs for monitoring
     • 1x HDMI output for direct monitoring or external display.

4. Switching and Effects:

   • Transitions: Includes smooth transitions like dissolves, wipes, and more complex effects with full 2D and 3D DVE (Digital Video Effects).
   • SuperSource: A built-in multi-layer compositing tool that allows up to 4 simultaneous inputs to be used as a single picture-in-picture.
   • Upstream and Downstream Keyers: There are 4 keyers, which include both upstream and downstream keyers for advanced graphics, text, and live video integration.

5. Audio:

   • The ATEM 2 M/E features advanced audio mixing capabilities, including:
     • 2 independent stereo audio mixes
     • Embedded audio via SDI
     • Mic/Line level audio inputs on XLR connectors
     • Fairlight audio panel for full audio mixing control, including EQ, dynamics, and audio processing.

6. Control and Monitoring:

   • Control Panel: Compatible with the ATEM 2 M/E broadcast control panel (sold separately) for hands-on control, with programmable buttons and LCD labels.
   • Software Control: Also controlled via the ATEM Software Control, available for Mac, Windows, and Linux systems.
   • Multi-View: The 2 M/E switcher includes multi-view monitoring for all inputs, program output, and other important data.

7. Media and Clips:

   • Media Pool: The ATEM 2 M/E features a built-in media pool to store graphics, animations, and other assets. These can be triggered live via the control interface.
   • Frame Synchronizers: Each input has built-in frame synchronizers, which help in cases where the video sources are running at different frame rates.

8. High Dynamic Range (HDR):

   • The ATEM 2 M/E supports HDR video formats, including HLG and PQ, providing more flexibility and vibrant images in broadcast productions.

9. Network and Remote Control:

   • Remote control and monitoring are supported over Ethernet, allowing integration into large-scale broadcast systems.
   • Compatible with third-party devices like remote cameras, replay systems, and automation solutions.

10. Power Supply:

    • Redundant power supply for high availability in critical production environments.

Physical Specifications:

• Dimensions: 19 inches (rack-mountable) x 1.75 inches (height) x 9.8 inches (depth)
• Weight: 4.2 kg (9.3 lbs)

Software Features:

• ATEM Software Control: Allows remote configuration and control over all aspects of the switcher, including inputs, transitions, audio, keying, and more.
• ATEM Macro Support: Programable macros for complex sequences and automated workflows.

Supported Video Formats:

• SDI Input/Output: Supports SD, HD, and Ultra HD in various frame rates (23.98, 24, 25, 29.97, 30, 50, 59.94, 60 fps).
• Resolution: SD (480i, 576i), HD (720p, 1080i, 1080p), and Ultra HD (2160p)

Advanced Features:

• External Keying: Supports external keyers and graphics for layered compositing, chroma keying, and graphics overlays.
• Dual Link 4K: Supports dual-link 4K in case of higher bandwidth requirements.

This switcher is ideal for large-scale productions such as sports, concerts, and live television broadcasts where flexibility, reliability, and high-quality output are crucial.
