how did I not know about this. I have been wanting a fader/T-bar controller for the atem and this is perfect in addition to all of the supersource transitions. Great work!
What an excellent piece of software! I've bought an APC Mini for myself for Crimbo
I have been waiting for a program like this for a long time. It is absolutely fantastic.
I am using to map my X-Touch Universal to run vMix.
I have also used the program to setup a Newtek RS8 surface to run an ATEM Studio 4k. Bought the ebay for $100 and it works like a charm with the ATEM.
I am hoping the continue to add more devices to its list of control. Perhaps some DMX control.
Thank you so much. Please do not hesitate to email me with any feedback or ideas - joe@centralcontrol.io
Thanks for the step-by-step ATEM-to-APC mapping demo. Is it also possible to map the video source for each of the USK and DSK layers to separate horizontal rows of eight buttons on the APC? BMD's ATEM Software Control panel puts these video source selections inside mouse-driven drop-down menus which are very clumsy to use during a performance.
I've just discover/buy the software...everything i was looking for, for the last 5 years ! ...I don't have the company's ATEM around, but soon as I can, i'm going to set with ATEM 2 M/E Production 4K, hope it's gonna work !!
by the way, we've a computer dedicated for the Atem, it's a small feature, but do you think you could had an auto startup on windows boot ?

You're The Best

Would it be possible to use the faders to control the manual focus setting of cameras ?
Hello Joe, Hope you're well.
Hi Joe, just a reminder to program the blackmagic hyperdeck mini in the software please.
Just bought one and is now set up to run a show on the atem..... my tablet kept losing the connection so this is perfect.
which midi controller u get
@@tedz2000 Akai APC Mini
is there anyway to control the ATEM mini with a MIDI controller, without bringing a computer? It seems like the computer is necessary to have the midi messages converted to IP messages. Also the ATEM mini has no USB or MIDI in port. Curious if I can program this and then not need a computer to run the show, seems like no.
Awesome piece of software! I have just got a korg nanokontrol 2 because of this, and had some success connecting it to my old ATEM Television Studio. I'm not expecting it to work perfectly, since that old switcher is not on the supported devices list, but wondering why the faders on the nanokontrol 2 appear under the buttons page, and not on the faders page?
Send me an email to joe @ centralcontrol.io and we’ll get this worked out
@@thisiscentralcontrol I got it working at the end. I'm posting it here so it might work for someone else too. Basicly you need to start the nanokontrol2 in CC mode (hold set and cycle during power up). In CC mode Central Control recognizes the faders, but not the buttons. In order to make the buttons recognizable, you have to install Korg Kontrol editor, open it up before opening up Central Control, and change the button functions from "control change" to "note", and button behaviour works better in momentary mode, than in toggle mode. As soon as the settings from Korg Kontrol editor are saved to the nanokontrol 2 (communication/write data), central control starts recognizing the buttons as well. Setting up all the faders took some tryes, but I got them working at the end, so it is all awesome now. The Korg Kontrol Editor for me only worked with the default windows driver. I used Revo uninstaller to clean up all the previously installed drivers.
@@varrozoli This is great thank you. Would you mind sending over your template for KontrolEdit and I will share it on our FB group!
@@thisiscentralcontrol yes, Varró Zoltán, I am very much interested in this template too, as I also have this controller!
Love what you're doing with Central Control Joe! I've been testing it out with VMix and ATEM. I'd love to feature it on my channel if you're interested in the future. Is there an email I can contact you on? Cheers man
Hey Alex! send me an email to joe@centralcontrol.io
man I wish this was for MAC!
and no, a VM is not a viable solution for me unfortunately.
Mac please
Does it work on Mac OS?
Not according the Central Control Website. :-(
Related Followup questions for @Joe de Max... Can Central Control be setup in a virtual machine (Parallels, Virtual Box, etc)? And once it's setup initially does the Midi Controller need to continually talk to "Central Control" or is it talking directly to the ATEM over the network?
@@TomQsTechTips sorry I have just seen this! You can run in a VM and we have customers that do just this. Central Control does need to stay running however.
Was waiting for the heart wipe buddy
I am trying to get the Hyperdeck mini in there as well... no luck
Do I need to get the latest software Joe?
We don't have support for the Hyperdeck yet... Add to basket ;)
Hello, just bought a licence. I tried to setup an Atem TV studio and apc mini, same as your vidéo. I can see your software is a bit different but the setup is pretty simple.
I have 2 problems. 1- i can't set up some colors. only green low and yellow low are working on the APC. And i can't control the audio and sides circle buttons are not working. Any ideas
Best to send an email to support contact@centralcontrol.io
Please can i use TYST 4M/E Advanced Panel with Atem Constellation with the
CENTRAL CONTROL software ?
Could central control set up a multi step sequence where 1 button press say moves a PDF slide forward one slide, transitions to the hdmi input the computer running the pdf slide show is coming into the ATEM, and put cam1 into a pip window? So the midi controller would need to execute a keyboard command (to move slide forward), then say run a macro doing the rest of the switches,nor run the individual steps themselves... thanks! for this video. Very helpful.
Yes absolutely. There is the "Send Keys" device for that, and then you can execute macros on the ATEM no problem.
Hi bro, thanks for sharing, I like to know if I can use 2 midi controller and to connect to 1 Atem 2ME?
Yes certainly - The intro version of the software lets you have up to 5 items in a project, and the Pro and Elite are unlimited.
Unfortunatly, there is a problem with the atem constellation hd audio control...
hey this is exactly what i needed! one question, could i use 2 different midi devices to control the atem at the same time?
Yes absolutely. You can control one ATEM with any number of devices.
I have an ATEM mini Pro, Central Control is able to recognize this desk
You can control the switcher, but we're lacking the Fairlight audio mixer right now. The good news is my ATEM Mini was delivered today so I can get to work on that ASAP!
Hi, i have a Behringer xtouch compact. does your software works with motorized faders and layers. Sorry for the question, i'm italian and i'm not sure about what you said about motorized faders in this video.
Yes!
Can u use the software with a stream deck
Absolutely.
Hi Joe, I cannot get the ftb button to flash
Ah - there was a bug that got fixed. If you email me (joe@centralcontrol.io) I'll send you our latest beta.
Hi Joe, I'm adding the AKAI to the device mapping in for the APC mini, but the faders don't work. I also tried with the x-touch and no dice. Any updates they would have made that make this not work? All other functionality works fine (buttons etc) just not the faders)
Hi Peter. What ATEM are you using?
@@thisiscentralcontrol hi Joe! I'm using the extreme.
@@thisiscentralcontrol Hey friend, any ideas here? I've tried the AKAI Mini too...still no go on the faders. Just not sure where to go for help, as it doesn't seem like Central Control will be much help. Any other software like Central control that might work?
@@petermoscone4420 Please email over your project file (joe@centralcontrol.io) and I will give this a go myself.
Please teach me,
Do you Know Use ATEM Switcher on Donner MIDI Keyboard?
Hi, this should work just fine using "Generic MIDI" in Central Control
Does that work for atem mini too?
All of it apart from the audio mixer. I have one on order and I will have this working for you as soon as I can.
@@thisiscentralcontrol I will stop bothering you about it ;)
@@stagepinned I assure you we will deliver :)
Hi, I have Traktor Kontrol F1 controller, can i use this software to control Atem using F1 ?
Yep - set it to MIDI mode and use the Generic MIDI device in Central Control. Have a play with the free 30 day trial :)
@@thisiscentralcontrol that's awsome, i have read one comment that mixer for Atem Mini is unavaliable right now, ok i'll wait, but is there any way communice TR F1 with this software to make LED's work as with AKAI that you show on UA-cam, any Mapping will be nice to have on this list of compatible devices, can i help you to make one somehow?
Will this work with the ATEM MINI
Yes.. audio mixer does not right now with the mini but that will be added in an upcoming release.
cannot get it to work with my behringer xtouch mini in mc mode nor mc mode
@@tedz2000 can you elaborate? Are you seeing any errors when you try to enable the X-Touch Mini?
It says in the bottom window x touch mini (Mc mode) midi device not selected, in the device selection drop down .. X TOUCH MINI.. is only option and is selected
I disable M C mode does the same
Too bad it's windows only :(
Schweet!
