Hi all, I use an ATEM Mini Pro ISO in my "one man" studio. By "one man" I mean literally that I'm talent (if you can call me that
) and engineer.
I use all four inputs and have two (essentially independent) problems I'd like to address.
The first problem is that even with the multi-view display on a screen, it's really easy for me to forget to switch channels to the right input when I change the camera I'm addressing. This isn't a disaster, since I have the isolated input recordings, but I'd rather get it more-right first time to reduce editing effort.
The second problem is that every time I change where I'm working, I have to first go to the control computer to switch inputs on the ATEM. Something hand-held would be much nicer.
So, I figure I need a big red light "repeater" that I can place by each camera, so it's really obvious whether I'm working with the right input selected. Yeah, I have the multiview, but I'm not looking at that, I'm looking at the camera.
Is there such a device, or do I have to make it myself (I have several ideas for building it myself, but before I get the soldering iron, software toolkit, and duct-tape out, I figure I should consider OTS options if they exist).
TIA
Toby
