Hello,
First of i'll introduce my self, im Ignacio from Mexico. I have a small yet steadily growing business mainly focused on providing A/V services for small - medium conferences.
As of today I mostly offer Audio, video (proyectors, monitors) and lighting. I also offer CCTV but it's outsourced, not done directly by me.
I'm looking for a video switcher / distributor from Blackmagic, since i've seen bigger companies use this brand, and i've read good stuff.
This will probably be a very dumb question, but better safe than sorry: Can I use the ATEM Television Studio HD as a switcher and distributor? I know it works as a switcher, but can I also use it as distributor when only 1 video source is needed and the video shall be sent to more than 1 monitor? Do I need to buy ie: Mini Converter SDI Distribution 4K when I only need to distribute?
Another case: Can I have 1 input sent to two monitors, and then have a 2nd input sent to another monitor?
I know this might be a waste of time question, but for those who can bare with me, i'll appreciate your honest suggestions! I'm just trying to make the best decision and prevent a bad investment.
Cheers!
