ATEM Micro Panel is the world’s first Bluetooth enabled live switching control panel. Ultra-compact and affordable at $675, it is a low cost solution that can be used anywhere. Designed for live productions like podcasts, sporting events and concerts, it features the same high end buttons as ATEM Advanced Panels, offering users a true broadcast quality experience.
Typically designed for mainstream broadcasters, switching control panels are often cumbersome, complex and expensive, inaccessible to those broadcasting from home studios or remote locations common to the new generation of social media content creators. To change this paradigm would require us to:
Empower independent and novice broadcasters with an affordable, approachable, broadcast-quality design that could be used in any setting.
Improve productivity with direct access to the functions, effects and diagnostic tools professional broadcasts demand.
Develop a rational, intuitive control surface to build intrinsic connections between user and GUI.
ATEM Micro Panel is the world’s first Bluetooth enabled live switching panel, releasing users from traditional, inflexible studio settings.
This is an especially great advantage for larger scale events, with users for the first time able to move around remotely located cameras, media decks and other inputs with a control panel in hand, allowing them to set up shots and balance cameras in a single operation without the need for cumbersome equipment or cabling.
An affordable, empathetic solution for live production in any environment, the ultra-portable design slips easily into a small satchel and features Bluetooth and internal battery for wireless use in confined spaces.
The clear, ordered workspace presents a hierarchical layout of physical controls that places critical functionality at user’s fingertips, eliminating time-consuming GUI navigation for reliable, real-time transitions, digital video effects and control of 10 video inputs.
Bespoke switcher buttons are identical to high-end ATEM Advanced Panels and have smooth, scalloped caps to reduce distracting reflections and offer positive tactile engagement for error-free blind operation.
An exercise in restraint, the pared back aesthetics are a natural by-product of its function.
Offered to the user at a natural 5° angle, the minimal, non-reflective black control surface is free from visual distractions, leaving the control layout as clear as possible.
