Sorry Xtreemtec you don't seem to know these units in depth. The old 1ME and the 2ME indeed have the ability to monitor specific channels. But they don't have a dedicated physical output for that like the newer units. So if you monitor a channel you will lose the general analog physical PGM output.
We used that many times to deembed camera audio and send that through a mixer and finally feed the mixer sum back into the ATEM.
Here is the original press text from BMD:
ATEM Switcher 3.2 Audio Mixer Features
Built in audio mixer for ATEM 1 M/E and ATEM 2 M/E Production Switcher and ATEM Television Studio models.
Level and balance control for audio from each video input, media players and external audio input.
Audio-follow-video (AFV) allows audio to crossfade when inputs change.
SOLO enables audio output to be used as a dedicated monitor output on ATEM 1 M/E and 2 M/E Production Switchers.
Direct mix allows an audio input to be permanently mixed into the program output.
Audio mixing is accessed through and ‘Audio’ tab within the ATEM Control Panel Software.
Free software update for all ATEM customers.
ATEM control panel software including audio mixer is available for both Mac OS X and Windows.
Cheers
Robert
