I am an upgrader of Blackmagic ATEM Mini Pro to its new Extreme and I am impressed with what ATEM Mini Extreme could offer me. Here is my experience.
Equipped with 8 HDMI inputs instead of just 4, which gives me a lot more flexibility in terms of connecting multiple video sources, computers, and other devices.
It was also easy to set up and get started, thanks to the user-friendly interface and clear instructions.
I am pleased with its 2 separate HDMI outputs, 2 USB ports, and a headphone connection, which makes it easy for me to monitor the output and connect to other devices.
The ATEM Mini Extreme also supports a wide range of video formats, so I don't have to worry about compatibility issues.
The 4x chroma keyers, 6 picture-in-picture DVEs, 2 media players, and a multiview with up to 16 views have been a bonus feature for my video production needs.
As regards to the price point is very reasonable, especially considering all the features that are packed in.
However, there is a minor flaw to keep in mind:
The ATEM Mini Extreme doesn’t support SDI input, which might be an issue for some users. However, if you need an SDI connection, you may consider the following SDI series
ATEM SDI Extreme ISO
ATEM SDI Pro ISO
ATEM SDI
It does require a computer to set up and control the settings, so you’ll need to have a laptop or desktop nearby.
In short, I think the ATEM Mini Extreme is a fantastic investment for anyone needing a versatile and affordable video switcher with many advanced features. It's definitely helped me make more

This is a amazing device. More features than I need and more quality. I like there 8 HDMI input to switch between eight different cameras/ video source at the same time and Two HDMI output for presentation. I still haven’t figured everything out yet but this stuff I discovered has been amazing helpful.

Works beautifully. More features than I need, but does everything I want. The AETM is so much more stable and reliable. Came down to Expandore store, the sales person really helped me with this device as I wasn’t familiar with this at first. Kudos to them!

I love it! a very versatile switching board. Used it for our streaming department for church livestreams. Also to say, it’s really easy to use too!

This is super easy to learn, and works great! I can stream for clients, have them use their computer, and not require any software installs.

This is a next level streaming. This is a great addition for our our worship situation. I can now livestream with lyric and media overlays. The software is user friendly and it doesn’t take much space.
