Switching Modes - Blackmagic Design ATEM Mini Manual De Instalación Y Funcionamiento

ATEM Software Control is included in the ATEM sotware installer and can be downloaded from
the Blackmagic Design website. It's free and allows you to control your switcher in a similar way
to a full hardware control panel. A range of palettes on the right side shows you all processing
features of your ATEM Mini and allows settings to be easily made.
You can also use ATEM Software Control to configure your switcher settings. For more
information on how to use ATEM Software Control, refer to 'using ATEM Software Control'
in the following sections of the manual.

Switching Modes

'Cut bus' is the default switching mode which lets you change sources as soon as you press an
input button. Setting ATEM Mini to 'program preview' mode lets you preview the source before
switching it to air.
Cut Bus
In cut bus mode, as soon as you press an input button, it will immediately switch to air.
This is a fast and easy way of switching.
In cut bus mode, pressing an input button will instantly switch it to air
Program Preview
In program preview mode, switching a source is a two step process. This is because pressing
an input button puts the source in a preview state so you can decide whether you want to
switch it, or perhaps select a different input source. This powerful switching mode is used by
professional broadcast switchers across the world.
TIP If you connect an HDMI monitor, for example Blackmagic Video Assist, to
ATEM Mini's HDMI output you can output the preview signal and monitor the
selected input before switching it to air. For more information, refer to the 'setting
the HDMI output source' sectionn later in this manual.
