Discover the ATEM 1 M/E Constellation 4K UHD Live Production Switcher, a powerhouse in Ultra HD live production technology. This advanced switcher is equipped with 10 standards converted 12G-SDI inputs, 6 12G-SDI aux outputs, DVE, 4 ATEM Advanced Keyers, a 16-way multiview, media players, and a USB webcam output.

This compact, rack-mount design switcher comes with a built-in control panel, allowing for easy operation during setup or emergencies. It also features a large LCD for program output viewing and switcher settings adjustment via on-screen menus. The compact design makes it ideal for portable live production, with the rear of the switcher housing connections for 3G-SDI or 12G-SDI inputs, aux outputs, balanced audio, and Ethernet for control.

The ATEM 1 M/E Constellation 4K is perfect for massive live events, from concerts and music festivals to live sports. With its powerful internal graphics and advanced chroma keyers, it provides everything you need for complex program production.

The ATEM Constellation employs a professional "program/preview" style operation, mirroring the way large broadcasters use live production switchers. This ensures fewer mistakes and makes the ATEM Constellation an excellent training tool for students pursuing a career in broadcast television.
