Best guess is that your mixer is outputting mic level, which is a much lower signal than line level.

The ATEM input needs to match the mixer output. I prefer line myself, but so long as they match, you're good. ;)

Mic level is .001 to .010 volts.
Line level at -10db is .316 volts.

The mic level signal produces 30-300X less voltage than a -10db line level signal.

Good Luck
