ATEM Constellation, X-Touch and Central Control

PostTue May 13, 2025 2:46 pm

Can anybody advise on a strange connectivity issue between Behringer X-Touch and Atem Constellation, please?

Here is the setup:
-We are an academic TV Studio working to 1080 50i
-We have a Blackmagic (BM) Atem Constellation 4M/E
-Connected to a BM ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 20
-Audio is Fed into BM Micro-converters for 8 x analog to MADI input to ATEM
-For audio mixing we have historically used Central Control IO (CCio), and now want to connect ATEM to Behringer X-Touch Universal
-Everything is working on the network LAN.
-The X-touch is connected to the network as well by USB as to the PC running ATEM
---NOTE: The MADI faders start at INPUT 41 and up from there.
-----The MADI channels are split to produce single mono inputs
-----X-Touch is in MC USB mode. I cannot seem to get it working across the network. [/list][/list]
-----I had tried this using slave and port 5004.

1/ When connecting the X-Touch and ATEM, it already seems to have some comms with the ATEM mixer. Why is this, please?

2/ I have to shut down the ATEM software before running up CCio otherwise, CCio reports that something else is using the X-Touch. Is this right?

3/ When I do get it running with assigned faders 1-4 control ATEM MADI inputs 41-44, if I adjust one fader, it will also fade some or all of the other channels. Any clues, please?

Many thanks for any advice!
Phil
