About the Blackmagic Design ATEM2AP30 ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 30

The Blackmagic Design ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 30 is an expanded hardware control surface that provides enhanced capacity for operating an ATEM 2 M/E series live production switcher. It increases the number of direct source selection buttons to 30, allowing operators instant, single-press access to a vast pool of cameras, media players, and auxiliary sources—crucial for fast-paced productions like sports, news, or large award shows where source count is high. This panel retains all the dedicated controls for the switcher's two multi-effects banks, keyers, transitions, and media, but with a layout optimized for managing significantly more inputs without banking or paging.

Featuring high-resolution LCD screens, tactile faders, knobs, and trackballs, the panel offers precise control over every aspect of the live production, from complex layered graphics to audio mixing. Its ergonomic design places all critical functions under the operator's fingertips, enabling rapid execution of intricate show elements. Connection to the ATEM switcher is via a single Ethernet cable, ensuring reliable, low-latency communication that mirrors the responsiveness of traditional broadcast control rooms.

This panel is engineered for the most demanding broadcast environments that use ATEM 2 M/E switchers. It caters to large-scale productions requiring both the advanced functionality of the switcher and the operational speed afforded by direct access to 30 sources, making it an indispensable tool for major broadcast facilities, mobile trucks, and high-stakes live event control rooms.

FAQs about Blackmagic Design ATEM2AP30 ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 30

What is the Blackmagic ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 30?

It is a dedicated hardware broadcast control console designed to control Blackmagic Design ATEM production switchers. It provides two physical M/E rows with 30 input cross-point buttons per row for comprehensive, tactile live switching.

Which ATEM switchers are compatible with this panel?

It is compatible with any ATEM production switcher running ATEM Software Control, including the ATEM Constellation series (HD and 4K), ATEM 2 M/E and 4 M/E Broadcast Studios, and smaller models like the ATEM Mini Extreme.

What do the 30 direct cross-point buttons provide?

The 30 physical buttons per row allow operators to switch large numbers of cameras, graphics channels, and video feeds directly without needing shift buttons. For productions with more than 30 sources, shift keys are available to double the accessible inputs per row.

How does the panel connect and communicate with the switcher?

The panel connects to the ATEM switcher over standard Ethernet using built-in Gigabit Ethernet ports. It also includes an Ethernet loop output to daisy-chain additional control panels or computers on the production network.

How is the ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 30 powered?

It features dual redundant internal power supplies (100–240 Vac) with standard IEC power inlets to ensure uninterrupted operation during live broadcasts. It also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE+ 802.3at) as an additional power option.

What displays and status readouts are built into the panel?

Each M/E row features dynamic LCD scribble strips above the cross-point buttons displaying custom source labels, colors, and bus states. Additionally, dedicated high-resolution LCD menu screens with rotary control knobs provide direct access to keyers, transitions, DVEs, and switcher menus.

Does the panel feature physical transition controls?

Yes, each M/E row includes an ergonomically curved physical T-bar fader for smooth manual wipes and fades. Adjacent dedicated buttons provide instant execution for Auto, Cut, and transition-type selections (Mix, Dip, Wipe, DVE, and Stinger).

What does the integrated 3-axis joystick do?

The built-in 3-axis joystick allows precise, real-time control over Digital Video Effects (DVE) positioning, sizing, and rotation. It is also used to adjust camera pan/tilt parameters on compatible PTZ heads or robotic systems.
