@@waltjennette A dream setup for me would be 2 USB ports, 2 HDMI (one for program, one for the multi), a headset jack, 4K and an SD for video playback instead of stills or buying a HyperDeck.
This helped me out big time. We are using the BM ATEM ISO (SDI) Extreme at our church and these instructions/tips were just what I was looking for. I got this bookmarked and you got a sub from me for sure. Thank you!
Thanks for the tip about saving the settings! You helped me before I even knew I had a problem. I have my new ATEM in a plug with an on/off switch because I hate leaving it plugged when not in use. I had just set everything up yesterday but I didn't realize I'd already wiped out all my hard work.
Broooo…that audio settings you showed for line instead of microphone just helped me. I was wondering why the input was so hot. I run the output from my X32 into the atem for my church setup. This just helped me!!!
Good ideas. Line level in setting for sure. The ATEM Mini defaults to the last settings so mine defaulted to mic inputs, forgot you could change those to line inputs so I had clipping today. Will check that setting. Also grabbing a headphone out of your camera monitor/recorder is a good idea. Will try that. The HDMI output cable connector headphone extractor works too.
That last little hack is what I’m trying. I have a rodecaster pro connected to an Atem Mini run zoom through OBS. If this doesn’t work then I’m getting an HDMI monitor that I can pull the audio and send the video feed to another lcd I have in the studio. Fun times!
Thanks for the great video. Setting up studios today trying to get audio to ouput to a Windows machine. Is there a Windows equivalent to Quicktime I can use to monitor audio through the computer? Haven't had any luck with Windows media player.
Thanks for the great tip. Also, on Mac, has anyone tried BlackHole/Soundflower instead of making a quicktime recording for monitoring audio? If that works, that might be the easiest way to get audio. Also another cheap alternative would be to get a HDMI audio extractor, and use it to get the audio from the HDMI out.
Thanks for commenting. Yeah, BlackHole or Soundflower would be a more permanent solution. Quicktime monitoring would just be something for a quick pinch and free. Lol.
Nice video, thanks for making it. Only thing for me is that I am using the ATEM C output to record onto SanDisk SSD drive, so I can only use HDMI out to monitor audio to monitor to optimize equalization. With this arrangement, I am concerned about any coloration of sound signal that my monitor (BenQ PD3200U, which is good) may induce before its audio jack-out. I'm also wondering if my headset, Sony WH1000MX3., adds any significant coloration as it subjectively sounds different using its power-off vs power-on. I'm thinking that I should buy a dedicated wired over the ear studio monitor headphone - would you agree, or as an audiophile snob am I being too picky? But do count me among the frustrated that Blackmagic couldn't do something as technically simple as add an audio monitor out from their otherwise great ATEM Mini-Pro.
Agreed. It’s not the greatest solution in the world but it is one none the less. Blackmagic seems to like making things difficult sometimes and this is another example
Bro help me out here. How do I get Audio out of my rodecaster pro 2 into atem mini pro iso if I heard you correct that’s how you have it setup. Thanks bro.
@@waltjennette No the input level. We've been struggling with putting a line level input into the ATEM, but despite tons of research I have never seen the option to change it from mic to line (until now). We've been using a -50db pad all this time.
Thanks for this great video. I have my headphones plugged into my laptop headphone jack. I have my mic going into the first mic input on the atem. I have a soundboard with sound effects going into the 2nd mic input on the atem. Is there any way to hear the soundboard from the 2nd mic input in my headphones WITHOUT hearing my own voice coming in through the first mic input? Thank you!
So if I understand correctly, you're trying to create a mix-minus basically. What type of laptop are you using? This is a bit tricky because there's not necessarily a way to separate the audio within the application. If you don't mind me asking, why are you using the soundboard? And why not have the mic going into the soundboard, so you just have 1 audio source?
@@waltjennette Thanks for the quick reply and willingness to help! I have a MacBook Pro. I don't know if soundboard was the correct term, this isn't my wheelhouse... I'm starting a video podcast with a friend, he's remote, and I have the Atem because I know I will add multiple cameras to the production in the future. I have my mic in the first mic input on the Atem. In the 2nd mic input I have an iPad with a "soundboard" app running so I can queue up funny sound effects during the stream. That's what I meant by soundboard. Now the problem is, my headphones are plugged into my laptop so I hear my friend speaking, but I don't hear anything in my headphones that's coming in from my mic 1 or 2 inputs on the Atem, so I don't hear the sound effects. This is why I'm trying to figure out how to hear the mic 2 input and not the mic 1 input in my headphones. I want to hear the sound effect but not my own voice in my headphones. Thank you again for you help!!!
@@waltjennette Also, I just bought a Focusrite Scarlett 4i4. Does this help towards my desired goal? If I don't need it I could return it and save some money :)
The real problem is whatever you do you can only get a stereo feed out of the mini and that is it. If you have a mixer with inline output you can get 4 channels in to it besides the camera mics = 8 audio inputs, but still only stero out. So there is something wrong with the videoworld that they do not let us hook up audio gear the way we are used to. And it is only unbalanced outputs = no Pro gear
hello, can you tell me how to boost sound? i use a mixer with rec out input in atem mini, when i record something in obs, the sound is very low.... i put line in settings but is low to, can you help me?
Thanks for the comment! I'll definitely take that into consideration. I really try not to have it at a distracting level so I appreciate you pointing that out.
@@waltjennette Funny I didn't find the music distracting (but could be a little bit lower) but that slap sound on the transitions was so loud I kept jumping out of my seat.
How are you monitoring your audio from the Atem Mini?
We plug the external HDMI port to a TV, and plug headphones into the TV's headphone jack.
Just got my ATEM Mini Pro yesterday and was surprised it didn't have a headset jack. Your video was perfect... Thanks! Instant subscribe!
Hopefully, whatever new iteration of the Atem Mini that comes out will include a headset jack.

Thank you so much for these easy to understand instructions. I am new to the ATEM, so this is very helpful! Blessings.
Glad it was helpful!
thanks for the quick time tip. sorted me out for the moment
The line level vs mic level tip is so important 🙏
It's definitely one of the most missed things!
It was so many gems in this iI really appreciate.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks bro! Just the help I needed for my church setup.
Great! Glad to hear it!

The quick time audio monitoring tip was gold 💯💯. I can now film live bands with out blown out audio lol. Couldn’t figure out why
Thank you so much! That such a relief to know that I can actually monitoring the audio now!!!!
Glad I could help!
Man I'm trying this on Sunday.. you may have just saved our broadcast
Walter - this was incredibly helpful! Thanks for this video!

So will you need to connect the atem mini to a pc with the usbc?
how do i balance the audio panning if its only playing on the left?
well explained mate! cheers
Good video!
Great video, thank you
Glad you liked it! Thank you for watching!
Mannnnn! This is great! Anyway you can you show us your church compressor and EQ settings??!!!
I have some atem content scheduled to come out in the next week or so, so I can definitely do that.
Bro help me out here. How do I get Audio out of my rodecaster pro 2 into atem mini pro iso if I heard you correct that’s how you have it setup. Thanks bro.
So you need to get male stereo breakout cables that go to a 3.5mm jack. And you can use the main output non to control that audio. amzn.to/4bkmswu
5:35 Whoa. Is there a way to set this (mic/line level) without the software?
Are you referring to splitting the channel/line? Or what exactly?
@@waltjennette No the input level. We've been struggling with putting a line level input into the ATEM, but despite tons of research I have never seen the option to change it from mic to line (until now). We've been using a -50db pad all this time.
Not having a audio headphone jack on the device is on purpuse. smdh.
I agree. You have to upgrade all the way to the extreme to get the headphone output
Good looking out bro

I believe you can b/c OBS allows you to setup a monitoring output

Do you feel unity 0 on the audio display meter which is displayed in red which confuses me is truly 0 unity
It doesn't confuse me only because I'm used to working with audio but it can definitely throw alot of people.
@@waltjennette I solved this by using my M32C for audio instead of Atem Extreme Iso
more q2u vids ?
Yes, I'm working on more. Had some other things I needed to get out of the queue first. Thanks.
The music in the background is distracting during your instruction dude,,,maybe turn it down or off
