Blackmagic Design ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel 20

Control your BMD ATEM switcher with the ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel 20 from Blackmagic Design. The full-featured control panel is an essential companion for any ATEM switcher, providing tactile accessibility and two independent system control LCDs to manage switching tasks during production, regardless of size and scope. Four-port Ethernet connectivity on the rear of the panel ensures that no additional network equipment is required and that the unit will integrate seamlessly into the most challenging live production applications.

The unit features a wide array of colour backlit buttons, including 20 input buttons, and it has buttons for controlling up to four upstream and four downstream keyers as well as four M/E rows. A dynamic 3-axis joystick and an ergonomically designed T-bar facilitate precise, real-time DVE control with the T-bar, providing targeted adjustment prowess for wipes, fades, and other broadcast-quality transitions. In addition to allowing you to create adjustable auto transitions, the panel has a dedicated preview transition button and a single-button Fade to Black option that is applicable to the entire output, all at once.

Mains power is provided via an optional power cord connected to the IEC input, which also offers a second input option for redundant power. A built-in USB-C port is included for firmware updates. The compact panel design allows the unit to fit in standard equipment racks, so that it may be easily integrated in fly-away kits or broadcast trucks.
