ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel for Live Production
The Blackmagic Design ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel is a hardware control surface built for professional live production switching. It provides two M/E rows with 20 input buttons each and two independent system control LCDs. This layout suits operators who need direct, tactile command over complex multi-camera broadcasts or streaming events.
Dual Row Build with Custom LCD Labelling
Each of the two rows includes 20 backlit buttons with integrated LCDs for custom source names, plus an independent select bus and a system control LCD. The dedicated hardware buttons for transition types such as mix, dip, wipe and DVE allow instant selection without menu diving. The panel connects to compatible ATEM switchers to deliver a fast, reliable physical interface that replaces software-only control.
Upgrades Software-Only Switching Workflows
Moving from a software control panel to this hardware panel removes the latency of mouse-driven operation and adds muscle-memory speed for live cuts, transitions and effects. It is not suited for productions that require more than two M/E rows or operators who rely solely on touchscreen or tablet control. The jump is worth it when live shows demand simultaneous multi-M/E management and instant transition customisation.
