Hi all. Just trying to collate the various forum threads and what the manual and website say (or don't say).
Please confirm which if any of the following are true:
Microphone 1 and 2 inputs on the ATEM Mini are unbalanced 3.5mm stereo inputs.
WITHOUT THE CONTROL SOFTWARE, the inputs are set to -60dbv microphone input, and I can directly plug in a microphone (such as my Apex 570).
Again, without the control software, I need a DI Box to reduce the signal strength from a line-level output device (ie. a CD Player, a computer, an iPhone/iPad, etc.). And that would need to be a two-channel box to maintain stereo.
The Up/Down Arrow buttons on the Mini are strictly volume/fader levels, and not gain.
IN THE SOFTWARE, you can switch the microphone inputs between a -60dbv microphone input and a -10dbv line input, so you would not need a DI Box. (But then you would always need to use the software, as you can't set it permanently in the box.)
Thanks.
