Blackmagic ATEM Television Studio HD8 ISO

Blackmagic ATEM Television Studio HD8 ISO

This compact, redesigned live TV switcher is perfect for any streaming production and offers eight 3G-SDI inputs supporting up to 1080p60 video, built-in live streaming, USB webcam support, audio mixing, chroma keyers, DVE, transitions, media players, internal recording and talkback support. With this ISO model, you can record each input to a separate file and control and integrate external internet cameras. The switcher is compatible with Blackmagic Cloud, so your programme recordings are instantly available anywhere in the world.

The switcher features an entirely new button layout and is made from polycarbonate, making it significantly lighter than its predecessor. The layout has been improved in numerous ways, with professional buttons, LCD label displays and user-friendly controls.

You get an incredibly powerful switcher with 8 inputs, including programme and two aux outputs, giving you everything you need for mobile production. That means you can connect up to 8 cameras. On top of that, you get professional camera control, talkback and audio mixing, all integrated into a familiar broadcast panel.

The ISO model records all inputs to separate files, so you can edit with any NLE that supports multicam. This is possible because all files are perfectly synchronised with timecode. What's more, the built-in network storage lets you edit while you record. Multiple users can even share media and collaborate.

With a built-in hardware streaming engine, you can live stream your event to a global audience. Recording to H.264 files with AAC audio ensures you have the right format for uploading to YouTube. You can also share live broadcasts with your audience via the aux outputs and large screens and projectors.

You get an advanced broadcast-quality switcher, with built-in ATEM Advanced Chroma Keyers, Fairlight audio mixer, DVE, still store for graphics and more. Most features can be controlled via the front panel, or you can use the free ATEM Software Control on macOS or Windows to access even more features.
