When image acquisition begins, the ATEM 2 M/E Constellation UHD 4K Live Production Switcher enhances its predecessor's setup by incorporating UHD 4K functions and 12G-SDI ports. Tailored for robust live event UHD 4K switching, this unit includes 20 individual 12G-SDI sources compatible with 12G/3G/HD-SDI signals, feeding them to 12 12G-SDI feeds or webcam USB-C feed. Additionally, the switcher integrates a multiview feed with up to 16 routable windows, showcasing sources, keyed footage, graphics, stills from the media pool, and the program feed. Each source is linked to a built-in Fairlight audio mixer supporting up to 28 channels of audio.
The switcher incorporates a reference footage input, and every source is equipped with a frame synchronizer, frame rate converter, and format converter. This therefore permits seamless mixing and matching of cameras and formats, even for cameras lacking genlock, and integration of footage source from computer sources. Upstream and downstream keyers and effects are provided, all executed live and in real time without the need for rendering. Control options incorporate the built-in front panel, optional Blackmagic ATEM panels, or downloadable control software.
The ATEM Constellation UHD 4K boasts an extensive selection of high-quality native transitions, including mix, dip, wipe, and more. All transitions are fully customizable via the system control menus, allowing adjustments for border color, width, position, direction, and numerous other parameters. Additionally, the switcher provides a robust digital footage effects processor for DVE transitions, enabling the current picture to be seamlessly squeezed offscreen to reveal a new footage underneath. The DVE operation additionally facilitates the creation of graphic wipe transitions. To maintain accuracy, the ATEM Constellation UHD 4K supplies a preview transition feature, enabling operators to configure transitions before broadcasting.
Equipped with two independent DVEs, the ATEM Constellation permits operators to reposition graphics and generate picture-in-picture compositions with notable quality. The DVE accommodates real-time adjustments for position, resize, and scale, offering versatility in creating professional picture-in-picture effects with customizable 3D borders, shadows, and lighting. Moreover, DVEs can be leveraged to produce dynamic transitions with squeeze and swoosh effects, enhancing program excitement. Operators can even bring together DVE transitions with custom graphics to craft unique graphic wipe transitions. In the 2 M/E version, SuperSource processors are included for six DVEs.
Incorporated into the ATEM 2 M/E Constellation version alongside the DVEs in the M/E rows, the ATEM Constellation UHD 4K incorporates robust SuperSource multilayer processors. These processors incorporate four extra DVE layers and a background layer, presenting themselves as an extra source source to the switcher. Each SuperSource DVE can utilize any switcher footage source, which is then layered over a custom background from the media pool. This feature effectively adds an extra multilayer VFX switcher, ideal for creating picture-in-picture displays for interviews while keeping the main DVEs provided for other tasks.
Offering configurable options ranging from 16 to 4 up views, the multiview function provides monitoring functions for program, preview, sources, media players, DSK, and clean feed. Optional labels and audio meters enhance usability. The ATEM 2 M/E Constellation version is equipped with two multiview feeds.
The ATEM Constellation incorporates built-in talkback operation to facilitate seamless communication among crews. Supporting a 5-pin XLR headset connector and a rear-mounted RJ12 connector, talkback interfaces with industry-standard systems like ClearCom or RTS. Operators have extensive talkback control, including program and engineering loops, sidetone control, and program mix. Additionally, SDI talkback through channels 15 and 16 permits two-way communication with Blackmagic Design cameras, while channels 13 and 14 can be utilized for engineering talkback. Moreover, the talkback mic can be mixed into the program audio for voiceovers.
Featuring a built-in media pool, the switcher stores high-quality RGBA graphics and animations for instant playback by two or four media players. These media players function as extra source sources on the ATEM Constellation UHD 4K, eliminating the need for extra SDI sources for graphics. The media pool holds graphics intended for use with the media players. In the 2 M/E version, the media pool can accommodate 40 stills and 400 frame animations. Media management is facilitated via the included ATEM Software Control or direct downloads from Photoshop through the ATEM Photoshop plug-in.
The ATEM chroma keyer incorporates a color picker for automated key parameter generation by sampling background colors. Utilize accurate controls for edge and flare adjustments, with an added foreground color corrector to maintain seamless compositions matching the background layer. The keyer is versatile for pattern and DVE keying uses. The 2 M/E model provides eight Enhanced Keyers.
Featuring up to 20 multi-rate 12G-SDI links, the ATEM 2 M/E Constellation UHD 4K accommodates multiple footage sources, supporting UHD and HD footage standards comprising 720p, 1080i, 1080p, and 2160p formats. Easily switch between formats to suit production needs. The sources support embedded audio, allowing for audio mixing from the sources. Program feeds incorporate talkback, tally, and camera control information for seamless integration with cameras.
All SDI sources on the Constellation UHD 4K connect to a built-in Fairlight audio mixer equipped with a 6-band parametric EQ, compressor, limiter, noise gate, and expander. Audio is extracted from the SDI sources and routed to the onboard mixer, supporting up to 156 source channels. Additional sources are provided for built-in analog sources or talkback microphones for voiceover functions. Audio control is managed via the ATEM Software Control or compatible Mackie panel.
Employ the ATEM Software Control Panel to manage your Constellation unit via your personal computer. The software provides a visual switcher interface and parameter palettes for swift adjustments. Several operators can connect to the switcher via Ethernet, allowing concurrent work on distinct aspects of your event. It grants access to camera control, audio mixing, media, macro programming, and HyperDeck disk recorder control. Save the switcher's full state as XML files and back up media from the media pool. The software is compatible with macOS and Windows working systems.
The Constellation UHD 4K is compatible with three ATEM Enhanced Panel versions, featuring industry-standard M/E-style layouts with built-in LCD screens. High-quality buttons with customizable illumination color, a DVE joystick, and a T-bar fader streamline unit control. Macros allows a setting up and triggered effortlessly. All M/E button rows incorporate built-in LCDs for dynamic source button labeling. The 1 M/E version comprises a single M/E row with 10 source buttons, the 2 M/E version incorporates 2 M/E rows with 20 source buttons, and the 4 M/E version boasts four M/E rows with 40 source buttons per row and four independent system control LCD screens.
