Description

The Blackmagic Design ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel is a full-featured hardware control panel for BMD ATEM switchers. It connects via Ethernet and provides hands-on tactile control, essential for broadcast studios. An LCD information display surrounded by soft-touch menu buttons and rotary encoders allows for intuitive programming of control functions. Aside from the main display, each programmable button has an LCD scribble strip to illustrate its function. Since buttons can perform different functions, up to 20 inputs can be accessed by shifting the 10 input buttons. The buttons themselves have curved indentations to help avoid incorrect keystrokes. Real-time dynamic controls are available in the form of a single 3-axis joystick and a large weighted T-bar fader. Use the joystick to remotely control PTZ cameras or effects, and the T-bar to adjust transitions, wipes, fades, and more. At the rear of the unit are dual Ethernet connections, a USB port for firmware updates, and power inputs. Use the IEC input for connecting to mains power or the 4-pin XLR 12V input for DC power supplies. The panel's chassis is sized small enough to fit in a standard equipment rack, allowing it to be implemented in broadcast trucks and fly-away kits. Read more

About the Blackmagic Design ATEM1AP ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel

The Blackmagic Design ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel is a professional hardware control surface designed to provide comprehensive tactile control over an ATEM 1 M/E series live production switcher. It features a layout with dedicated buttons, faders, and high-resolution LCD screens that give operators direct access to all core switching functions, including source selection, transition execution, keying operations, and media playback. This panel is built for live production environments like broadcast studios, corporate events, and houses of worship, where physical controls offer faster, more reliable operation than software interfaces, especially during high-pressure live events.

The panel is architecturally matched to the ATEM 1 M/E switcher, providing dedicated controls for its single multi-effects bank, upstream keyers, downstream keyer, and auxiliary outputs. It includes integrated trackballs and knobs for precise adjustments to color correction, key edges, and other parameters. Connecting to the switcher via a single Ethernet cable, it ensures real-time, responsive control that streamlines the workflow for technical directors, allowing them to focus on creative execution rather than navigating menus.

This control surface elevates the ATEM 1 M/E switcher to a professional broadcast control room standard. It offers the tactile feedback and immediate access that experienced operators rely on, making it an ideal investment for production facilities that require efficient, confident control over their live productions without the scale or cost of larger broadcast panels.

FAQs about Blackmagic Design ATEM1AP ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel

What is the primary function of the ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel?

The ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel is a hardware control surface designed to give live production operators tactile, broadcast-grade control over Blackmagic ATEM switchers. It provides dedicated physical buttons, knobs, an LCD menu screen, a T-bar fader, and a 3-axis joystick to replace or complement mouse-based software switching.

Which Blackmagic ATEM switchers are compatible with this panel?

The panel is compatible with all Blackmagic Design ATEM switchers across the product lineup. It connects over a standard Ethernet network to control hardware switchers like the ATEM Constellation, ATEM Production Studio 4K, and ATEM Television Studio models.

How many physical input buttons are on the main control row?

The panel features 10 physical input buttons on the crosspoint bus, complete with customizable, multi-color LED backlighting and dynamic LCD label displays. By utilizing the built-in shift button function, operators can directly access up to 20 total video sources.

What tactile controls are provided for transitions and DVE effects?

It includes a smoothly weighted T-bar fader for precise manual transition timing, alongside dedicated Auto, Cut, and transition-type selection buttons. A 3-axis joystick allows operators to quickly position, scale, and adjust 3D DVE picture-in-picture effects or remote PTZ camera views in real time.

How do the LCD button labels work?

Each input channel button is accompanied by a dedicated, high-resolution 24-character LCD screen. These micro-displays automatically pull custom source names, colors, and camera labels directly from the connected switcher to ensure fast, mistake-free source selection.

How does the panel connect to the switcher and network?

It communicates with ATEM switchers via high-speed Ethernet using standard RJ45 ports. The dual-port Ethernet switch allows loop-through networking, enabling you to chain additional control panels or laptop control software on the same local network.

How is the unit powered during operation?

The control panel features a built-in internal AC power supply (100–240V) that connects via a standard IEC cable. Additionally, it supports redundant power options, including 12V DC auxiliary power inputs or Power over Ethernet (PoE) depending on the production environment.

Can I mount this panel in a equipment rack or flight case?

Yes, the compact metal chassis is sized to fit into standard 19-inch equipment racks using optional rack mount accessories or shelves. Its low-profile depth makes it ideal for broadcast trucks, flypack cases, and space-constrained control rooms.
