Blackmagic Design - 'ATEM Constellation 8K'

Designed for Massive Live EventsThe ATEM Constellation 8K is an Ultra HD live production switcher with so many features, that you can combine them all to make an incredibly powerful 8K switcher. You get 4 M.Es, 40x 12G SDI Inputs, 24x 12G SDI aux inputs, 4 DVEs, 16 keyers, 4 media players, 2 SuperSource and standards conversion on every SDI input. When switched to 8K, all these features combine to make a powerful 8K switcher. You even get built-in talkback and a professional 156-channel Fairlight audio mixer with EQ and dynamics. Plus you can use the Free ATEM Software Control or a choice of amazing hardware ATEM Advanced Panels.
40 SDI Ports and Fairlight Audio

Native 8KThe Constellation is designed to work in 8K natively, transforming the 40 SDI inputs into 10 Quad Link 12G SDI 8K inputs, the 4 multi views into a full resolution 8K multi view. Each port can be up and cross converted, meaning you can bring your HD or Ultra HD feeds directly into an 8K stream or push your 8K stream to a lower resolution for standard broadcasting!

Fairlight AudioEach SDI port comes with Fairlight audio mixer connectivity, whether through the software or the hardware, which brings full audio production without having to enter into other software.
Customisable, Ready to Broadcast 8K

Native 8KThe 24 outputs can be customised to suit your needs, letting you get a clean feed out of one and full independent feeds out of others. With this many outputs, you can even stream them out to various other projectors, video walls and digital signage that might be in the area.
You'll also be able to work in multiple TV standards, giving you the headroom to move from HD to Ultra HD to 8K once its ready.
Control and Switching

Native 8KOn the front you'll find a full control panel, allowing you to properly take advantage of the switcher's capabilities. You can switch between feeds, apply transitions and upstream/downstream keyers. There's even an XLR port for talkback.

Works with other panelsThe ATEM Constellation works similarly to other rackmounted Blackmagic switchers, with connectivity and control being routed to an external panel via a network. This includes the Camera Control and ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel.

Upstream and Downstream

Upstream The Upstream Keyer allows you to create multi-layer live action effects for your broadcasts. By layering different effects on top of each other, you can get outstanding effects to take your broadcast to another level.

Downstream The Downstream Keyer allows you to create multi-layer effects like bugs, logos and lower thirds, all in a similar way to how the upstream is handled.

The New 8K Workflow

8K made easyOn Blackmagic’s end, utilise this with the new ATEM HyperDeck Extreme 8K for a perfect master recording at the native 8K, then save it to where it needs to go via the MultiDock 10G over USB-C. Once it’s done, take the footage straight from the HyperDeck via FTP, onto the PC and into DaVinci Resolve or your favourite video editing software.
