Audio Balance
The audio mixer supports stereo audio from each audio source. If you wish to change the left
and right audio channel balance for a camera or other audio source, adjust the knob to the
desired balance point.
Audio Source Selection
Below each audio level meter, you will find the ON and AFV buttons that select which audio
sources are sent to the program output of the switcher.
ON Selecting the direct mix to ON allows an audio input to be permanently
mixed into the program output, even when the associated video source is not
on air. The red tally light will always be lit because the audio is always on air.
Selecting this option automatically disables AFV.
Audio Follow Video Audio follow video allows audio to crossfade when inputs change. The audio
will only be sent to the program output when the input is on air, lighting the
red tally light above. When off air, the tally light is lit dull yellow. Selecting this
option automatically disables the direct mix ON setting.
SOLO The solo feature appears as a headphones icon below each input and is
available for ATEM Production Studio and Broadcast Studio model switchers.
Master Audio Level Output
The master fader on the right side of the audio mixer is used to set the gain on the audio level
for the USB webcam program output and has its own audio level meter. Select the AFV button
on the master audio output fader to enable the AFV fade to black feature. This lets you fade
your master audio when you click on the fade to black button.
Audio Mixer Monitor
The monitor headphones sliders appear below the master fader and control the monitoring
audio output behavior on ATEM Television Studio model switchers.
The audio meter for Cam1 is shown in
gray to indicate that its audio will not be
used as neither of its ON or AFV buttons
are enabled. Cam2 has AFV selected
but its audio is not currently being used
as the camera is not on air as is indicated
by its dull yellow tally light. Cam3 and
Cam4 have their direct mix set to ON
so their mixed audio is always used and
their tally lights remain lit, even if another
camera is currently on air. The audio
level meters for Mic 1 and Mic 2 show
that no audio is present on these inputs.
