ATEM Software Control
ATEM Software Control is a powerful software control panel that gives you a lot more control
over your ATEM Mini. Once you start using ATEM Software Control you will quckly see just how
much your ATEM Mini can actually do.
For example, you can manually perform transitions using the fader bar, select internal sources
on the program and preview buttons, mix audio using a mixer with channel faders, set up
keyers, load graphics in the media pool and much, much more.
ATEM Software Control is included with your ATEM Mini 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.
