Wonderful Switcher

By BRANDON B.

This is by far the best Blackmagic switcher that I've ever purchased. Paired with the Ultrastudio Mini, you can have a full studio switcher in a compact form!

Experience the power and versatility of the ATEM Television Studio HD8 ISO, a professional live production switcher that combines advanced features with portability. This all-in-one television studio is designed for high-end work, yet its compact size makes it perfect for small venues without space for equipment racks or broadcast vans.

The ATEM Television Studio HD8 ISO is more than just a switcher. It boasts 8 standards converted SDI inputs, 2 aux outputs, 4 chroma keyers, 2 downstream keyers, SuperSource, 2 media players, and a variety of transitions. This robust feature set makes it a complete television studio in a single device, offering hardware streaming, recording, an audio mixer, talkback, multiview, and optional internal cloud storage.

One of the standout features of the ATEM Television Studio HD8 ISO is its ability to record all 8 inputs for editing, thanks to the ISO model. This allows for seamless editing using any non-linear editing system that supports multi-cam, with all files perfectly synced via timecode. The built-in network storage even lets you edit while recording, facilitating collaboration among multiple users.

The ATEM Television Studio HD8 ISO also excels in distribution. Its built-in hardware streaming engine enables you to live stream your event to a global audience. The device records to H.264 files with AAC audio, the ideal format for uploading to platforms like YouTube. You can also share live broadcasts with your audience using the aux outputs and large screens or projectors.

Despite its compact design, the ATEM Television Studio HD8 ISO is packed with powerful broadcast features. It includes built-in ATEM Advanced Chroma Keyers, a Fairlight audio mixer, DVE, a still store for graphics, and much more. Most of these features can be operated from the front panel, or you can use the free ATEM Software Control on Mac or Windows for even more functionality.

The ATEM Television Studio HD8 ISO is not only powerful but also user-friendly. Its intuitive design makes it easy to cut between video sources, pre-select a source, and choose between cut or effect transitions. You can also add a DVE for picture-in-picture effects with customized graphics and store graphics with alpha channels for titles and graphics that you can load as live video inputs.

Whether you're broadcasting from compact vans, music venues, clubs, or educational institutions, the ATEM Television Studio HD8 ISO is the perfect solution. Its ability to connect up to 8 cameras, its professional camera control, talkback, and audio mixing capabilities, and its self-contained design make it an ideal choice for live sports, interviews, theater productions, music performances, and more.

In summary, the ATEM Television Studio HD8 ISO is a professional live production switcher that offers a wealth of features in a compact, portable design. Its advanced capabilities, user-friendly interface, and versatility make it a valuable tool for any live production environment.
