Blackmagic Design ATEM Television Studio 4K8 2TB brings switching, routing, streaming, recording, audio control, and monitoring into a single live production system with an integrated control panel. Eight 12G SDI inputs accept HD and Ultra HD sources, while input resynchronization and frame rate or format conversion help keep mixed sources aligned with the selected switcher standard.
Flexible Routing and Monitoring
Ten 12G SDI aux outputs provide dedicated feeds for external recorders, displays, or production destinations. The switcher also provides program output and multiview monitoring, with layouts configurable for up to 16 views. Four RJ45 ports form an integrated 10G Ethernet switch for control, networking, and connected workflows.
Streaming and Recording Built In
Direct streaming supports RTMP and SRT over Ethernet or a shared internet connection through USB C. Programs can be recorded to the installed 2TB M.2 NVMe storage or compatible external USB media. HD recording uses H.264 with AAC audio, while Ultra HD recording uses H.265 HEVC with AAC audio.
Creative Control for Live Production
Build layered productions with 2 DVEs, SuperSource, 4 advanced chroma keyers, 2 downstream keyers, 2 media players, and a 58 channel audio mixer. Talkback, camera control, macro buttons, a fader bar, joystick control, and a system LCD place core production tools directly on the integrated panel.
