All ATEM production and broadcast studio switchers, except for ATEM Production Studio 4K,
mix audio from the switcher's built in media players. ATEM Production Studio 4K does not mix
audio from the media players because this model supports still frames only in the media pool
and does not support motion clips.
If you prefer to use an external audio mixer, it's easy to disable the audio for all inputs and you
only need to leave the external audio active in the audio mixer interface. More information on
how to use the audio mixer is included in the next sections.

Camera Control

The Camera tab in the software is where you can control cameras remotely, in a similar way to
how traditional external camera control units can control cameras, however with ATEM switchers,
this functionality is built into the software so it's always available. Settings such as iris, gain,
focus, detail and zoom control are easily adjusted using compatible lenses, plus you can color
balance cameras and create unique looks using the DaVinci Resolve primary color corrector
that's built into the Blackmagic cameras running software v1.8.1 or later.
For detailed information on how to use the powerful camera control features, refer to
'Using Camera Control' in the 'Using ATEM Software Control' section of this manual.
The ATEM Camera Control lets you
control Blackmagic Design cameras

Switcher Settings

Click on the settings cog icon to open the settings window which allows you to change the
video input selections and labels. Setting labels are important, and they are visible in the multi
view output as on-screen labels and on the ATEM Advanced Panel.
