The Blackmagic Design ATEM 4 M/E Constellation 4K Switcher offers you 40 12G-SDI inputs and 24 12G-SDI outputs, which enables you to connect to a wide range of cameras and sources with video and resolutions of up to 10-bit UHD 4K60 via the 12G-SDI program outputs or 1080p and 720p webcam outputs via USB-C.
On the Blackmagic Design ATEM 4 M/E Constellation 4K Switcher, you will find four multiview outputs with up to 16 routable windows that can display inputs, keyed video, graphics, and stills from the media pool, as well as the program output. Each input connects to a built-in Fairlight audio mixer supporting up to 156 channels of audio.
You are also able to mix and match cameras that do not have genlock capabilities, this is via reference video input, and each input features a frame synchroniser, frame rate converter, and format converter. Upstream and downstream keyers and effects are supported in real time.
Advanced Broadcast Power
The Blackmagic Design ATEM 4 M/E Constellation 4K Switcher features a compact rack mount design that also features a built-in control panel and large LCD allowing you to see the programme output, and change switcher settings via on-screen menus.
This switcher, with its compact design, is perfect for portable live productions. The rear of the switcher includes connections for 12G-SDI inputs, aux outputs, balanced audio, and Ethernet for control. RS-44 is included for serial control and MADI digital audio connections.
Built-In DVE
Up to four independent DVEs allow you to reposition graphics and create picture-in-picture compositions with impressive results.
You are also able to create a professional picture-in-picture effect with customisable 3D borders, shadows, and lighting.
For added excitement to your programming, you are able to add creative DVE transitions with squeeze and smooth effects. Furthermore, you can also combine DVE transitions with custom graphics to create your own graphic wipe transitions.
SuperSource Processing
The Blackmagic Design ATEM 4 M/E Constellation 4K Switcher features DVEs in the M/E rows. This model includes powerful SuperSource multilayer processors with eight extra DVE layers, along with a background layer, which appears as an additional input source.
SuperSource is perfect for doing picture-in-picture displays for interviews because you can set up the effect while keeping the main DVEs free for other tasks.
Multiview
Configurable to 16, 13, 10, 7, or 4 up view, it includes monitoring of program, preview, inputs, media players, DSK, and clean feed with optional labels and audio meters. The 4 M/E model features four multiview outputs.
Professional Broadcast Talkback
Built-in talkback is featured to keep your crews working as a single creative team. Talkback supports a 5-pin XLR headset connector, plus a rear-mounted RJ12 connector for interfacing with industry-standard talkback systems such as ClearCom or RTS.
Full talkback control is provided, including program and engineering loops, along with sidetone control for hearing the headset mic in the headphones, and program mix. SDI talkback is supported, which uses 15 and 16 for 2-way communication with Blackmagic Design cameras. Engineering talkback can use channels 13 and 14 for engineering talkback. Furthermore, you can mix the talkback into the program audio for voiceovers.
Media Pool
The media pool is built-in and stores broadcast-quality RGBA graphics and animations to instantly playback by the four media players. Your media players simply appear as input sources on the Constellation 4K, so no additional inputs are needed for graphics.
The built-in media pool holds graphics for use with the media players. This model can hold up to 60 still and 1200 frames, along with four video clips up to 1080p60. All these can easily be managed from the ATEM Software Control Panel, or they can be downloaded from Photoshop.
Chroma Keyers
The Blackmagic Design ATEM 4 M/E Constellation 4K Switcher features 16 keyers for high-quality chroma or luminance keying. You get precise controls for edge and flare, and there is even a foreground colour corrector so you can match the "look" of the foreground layer to the background layer, making seamless compositions possible. The keyer can also be used for pattern DVE keying.
Upstream Chroma Keyers
Each M/E Row includes four upstream keyers, a perfect solution to build virtual sets. With this many chroma keyers, you can use one keyer per camera to create a seamless composition of the camera over custom backgrounds. You are able to create a 4-camera virtual set.
External image processors can be used for virtual sets, or you can build fixed camera virtual sets using pre-rendered still image backgrounds from the media pool. This much flexibility allows you to experiment with trying out different studio groups.
ATEM Software Control Panel
The Blackmagic Design ATEM 4 M/E Constellation 4K Switcher includes the ATEM Software Control Panel that gives you total control over the switcher. The Control Panel features a well-designed interface with a visual switcher and parameter platters for when quick adjustments are needed. More users can connect to the switcher via Ethernet and work on the same event at the same time.
The ATEM Software Control Panel gives you many more functions, including camera control, audio mixing, media, macro programming, and even control of HyperDeck disk recorders. The full state of the switcher can be saved as XML files, and all media is backed up from the media pool.
ATEM Software Control Panel software is compatible with both macOS and Windows.
