prosumer cameras and existing SD equipment can be used
without purchasing additional conversion gear. Four of the
Atem auxiliary outputs offer down/cross conversion making it
easy to distribute an SD copy of the program.
HDMI inputs and
outputs make Atem the perfect switcher for on-stage
presentations. The two HDMI inputs allow standard computer
systems to be connected for graphic elements and PowerPoint
presentations without the need for external conversion gear
such as scan converters. The HDMI and Analog outputs are
perfect for any projector or large screen display and Atem’s
short processing delay eliminates live action lag on the big
screen. (HDMI not HDCP compliant)
Atem can input and output any analog,
digital or computer signal. Analog signals can be Composite
(CVBS), S-Video (Y/C), RGsB, or Component (YPbPr). Digital
signals can be SD-SDI or HD-SDI. A wide range of computer
resolutions are also supported via HDMI.
Atem makes monitoring your production
simple and inexpensive. Atem features a dedicated connection
that outputs a ten channel multiviewer. Simply connect the
multiviewer output to an inexpensive HDMI or DVI display to
monitor program, preview and up to eight sources.
Atem is suitable for even the most
critical live production. Atem is built on an FAA certified
operating system which means 24x7 reliability and less than 10
second boot time. The optional redundant power supply further
enhances that reliability.
Atem includes
Echolab’s unique and invaluable SuperSource™ with four
picture-in-picture generators. Ideal for multi box
compositions - SuperSource™ allows the operator to pre-build
sophisticated compositions that can be taken to air simply by
pressing the SuperSource™ crosspoint and does not require the
use of M/E keyers. The SuperSource™ includes four of its own
keyers leaving upstream and downstream keyers available for
adding lower thirds, tickers and other elements.
The Atem utilizes our award winning Overture1
control panel. This panel features the highest quality LED
switches, fader bar and joystick that are usually only
available on more expensive switchers. It also includes
redundant power supplies.
Atem is one of the most
powerful 1M/E switchers on the market. In addition to
SuperSource™ and Stinger™ transitions, Atem features 4 M/E
keys with Chroma key and pattern generators as well as 2
downstream keys. With Atem it is possible to build an eleven
layer composition.
In addition to the unique multi-box
SuperSource™, Atem also features an advanced 2D DVE as
standard. The DVE is available in the upstream keyers and
includes sophisticated 3D borders and drop shadows, it can
also be used to animate or reposition keys on screen. In the
transition block it provides compelling program transitions
such as pushes, squeezes and moves.
Atem features an easy to use internal clip
player that can be used for playing animated lower thirds with
key channel, animated backgrounds or short clips such as show
openers, show closings, and bumpers. The internal clip player
is also integrated into the Atem Stinger™ transition.
Integrated Audio support allows you to add impact to your
transitions and your overall production.
Atem features intuitive next-transition
workflow with a variety of transition options. In addition to
the standard Cut, Mix, Wipe transitions found on traditional
mixers Atem features Dip, DVE and the unique Stinger™
transition.
The Echolab Conductor is a PC based
application that can be used to manage frame buffers, map
auxiliary outputs, create and launch macros, and control 3rd
party devices.

celebrate its 35th anniversary Echolab is offering special
