The Blackmagic Design ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 30 provides 30 input buttons per M/E row, giving operators extensive control over multiple cameras, graphics, and media sources. This layout is ideal for productions with various inputs, such as live concerts, sports events, or studio broadcasts, where quick and efficient switching between sources is essential for smooth operation.

With two independent Mix Effect (M/E) rows, the panel allows operators to control multiple layers of video simultaneously. Each M/E row includes keyers, transitions, and effects control, enabling operators to manage different aspects of the production independently, such as video feeds and graphics overlays. This setup is perfect for multi-team workflows or live productions that require layered visual effects and transitions.

The ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 30 features built-in LCD screens above each button row, allowing operators to customize labels and view real-time feedback on input sources, keyers, and macros. These displays enhance workflow efficiency by providing at-a-glance information about the production, ensuring that critical sources are quickly identifiable during fast-paced live events.

For manual control over transitions, the panel is equipped with precision faders and dedicated transition buttons. Operators can smoothly execute cuts, fades, wipes, and other effects, adjusting the speed and style in real time. This tactile control ensures professional-quality transitions, making the panel suitable for productions where timing and visual flow are critical.

The ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 30 includes dedicated buttons for triggering macros, media players, and effects. Macros allow operators to automate complex sequences of actions, such as multiple input switches or layered keying, streamlining workflows in fast-paced environments. The ability to access advanced effects, including wipes and digital video effects (DVE), ensures visually dynamic broadcasts that keep viewers engaged.

The panel’s multi-color backlit buttons provide clear visual cues for identifying input states, such as preview or on-air status. The ability to customize button colors helps operators quickly navigate between sources and functions, improving accuracy and speed during live broadcasts. This is particularly useful in environments with multiple video feeds and layered graphics, where clarity is crucial.

The ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 30 connects to ATEM switchers through Ethernet, enabling seamless communication in networked production environments. This setup allows for remote control of ATEM switchers, making it ideal for studio control rooms or OB trucks where the switcher may be physically distant from the control panel. The panel can also be used in conjunction with ATEM Software Control for added flexibility in live production workflows.

Designed for professional use, the ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 30 is rack-mountable, making it easy to integrate into broadcast studios, mobile production units, or control rooms. Its robust build ensures reliable performance in demanding live production environments, while its compact size maximizes space efficiency.

The ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 30 is ideal for a wide range of live production scenarios, including live sports, concert broadcasts, TV studios, and large corporate events. With its powerful M/E control, advanced keying, and real-time effects management, the panel provides the precision and flexibility needed to handle complex multi-camera broadcasts with ease.
