In 8K mode, these features combine to provide a single, powerful 8K DVE and four 8K keyers.

This is the first live production switcher to feature a massive 156 channel Fairlight audio mixer. Each input includes a 6-band parametric EQ, compressor, limiter, noise gate, and expander. With MADI support for an additional 32 input channels and the ability to connect to full Fairlight consoles, the ATEM Constellation 8K handles complex live sound mixing with ease. Two MADI outputs allow for breaking out audio to external engineers for dedicated mixing.

Comprehensive Control and Monitoring

The 2RU rack mount design includes a built-in control panel and a large LCD for monitoring program output and adjusting settings. For more complex productions, the switcher includes free software control for Mac and Windows. It is also fully compatible with ATEM Advanced Panels and ATEM Camera Control Panels, providing a professional broadcast workflow that scales with your needs.
