Live
production.

Day one is live production with Blackmagic Design: live video first, with ATEM and Blackmagic cameras, then audio with Fairlight Live, a software-based live audio mixer. It runs on a laptop, handles hundreds and even thousands of channels depending on your computer, and supports SMPTE ST 2110 and full redundancy. With ATEM switchers, the audio follows the video.

Two parts, one day. Come for the video, the audio, or both.
