Blackmagic ATEM Mini Pro Live Production Switcher
The Blackmagic ATEM Mini Pro live production switcher has all the features you have come to love from the fantastic Blackmagic ATEM Mini and adds more features that help you get more out of this device.
Features added are the ability to record and store the videos directly and directly stream to major streaming platforms through the live production switcher. The design is also somewhat similar, with the addition of other helpful buttons on the Pro version.
The ATEM Mini Pro gives you a familiar yet improved experience over the ATEM Mini, and these are improvements you will surely love.
Features
While the Blackmagic ATEM Mini Pro is similar to the ATEM Mini in design and even the ports found on the device’s back panel, you can find the significant changes under the hood. Give the ATEM Mini Pro a go, and you will find various improvements and additional features that make streaming and broadcasting videos much more effortless.
Similarities with the ATEM Mini
Starting with the similarities with the ATEM Mini, the Mini Pro can also handle 4 cameras. With the 4 slots for HDMI input and 1 slot for HDMI output, you have the option to assign 4 cameras capturing multiple angles or even connect a gaming console to one of the ports.
The audio mixer is also present, and so are the various video effects you have come to enjoy in the ATEM Mini. So if you want to add flair to the audio or video, doing it is just as easy as ever, especially if you already have experience with the Mini.
If you loved the ATEM Mini, there’s more reason to love the Blackmagic ATEM Mini Pro because of the things it adds to an already fantastic device.
New Features
There are a lot of new features, and all of them are significant ones. Starting with the recording function of the Mini Pro, which allows you to record your videos and store them in H.264 format, capable of delivering high-quality video with just a fraction of the storage space required.
Another new feature that we’re sure would be a hit is the ability to stream directly through the ethernet. With just a button press, you can stream to major streaming platforms like YouTube, Twitch, or Facebook at 1080p.
Viewing different video sources is also a breeze with this live production switcher’s multi-view function. Quickly identify the best camera angle and switch to it instantly without having to sift through the four available angles, making your workflow much more efficient.
There are also other features just waiting to be discovered and tried, and here are those features:
- A built-in hardware encoder
- Supports 4K and 6K cameras
- Time code auto-sync for all cameras
- Advanced settings can be customized
- Customizable advanced settings with XML files
Applications
Live production switchers like the Blackmagic ATEM Mini Pro make small video productions, presentations and streaming easier. With different multimedia functions packed into one compact device, you are saving money by getting it and saving time and energy.
With video game streaming being one of the most popular money-making ventures these days, gamers can benefit a lot by having a live production switcher like the Blackmagic ATEM Mini Pro by their side.
Simple presentations during meetings will also have that extra flair when you use a multi-camera setup. Perhaps you want to focus one camera on the subject you’re presenting and another on yourself; you can do that with this live production switcher.
The multi-view function of the ATEM Mini Pro is also an excellent addition. By allowing you to see different camera angles within one display, you can decide which angle is the best one to use. Lastly, the H.264 format of the saved videos are also a good addition as it doesn’t take up too much space on your storage, but it also doesn’t sacrifice the video quality.
ATEM Mini vs ATEM Mini Pro
Both the ATEM Mini and the ATEM Mini Pro have a lot of similarities when it comes to features, but the small improvements of the ATEM Mini Pro set it apart.
Take the H.264 video format as an example. Recording and storing your previous streams for later use doesn’t take up much of your storage space, leaving you with lots of storage room to put your future videos on.
The multi-view function of the Mini Pro also makes it easier for streamers and presenters to pick the perfect angle to display. Add the support for 4K and 6K cameras to the mix, and you get a wide range of high-quality videos alongside the ability to choose the most suitable angles.
To add to the multi-view function, different data regarding each camera is also displayed. You can look at the audio meters, graphics, on-air status, and record status of each camera on the multi-view display.
The minor improvements make the Blackmagic ATEM Mini Pro a step up over the ATEM Mini, and these things are best experienced for yourself. If you’re excited to find out what other improvements the Mini Pro offers, buy it now and see for yourself!
Conclusion
While the Blackmagic ATEM Mini Pro shares many features with the ATEM Mini, the small additions to this live production switcher make everything worthwhile. Imagine the ease with which you can stream or conduct your presentations, and all your reservations about getting this live production switcher will be gone.

Product Review team –
Can I adjust the quality of my stream to match available internet speed?
If you are bandwidth limited, then you can select from a range of streaming quality settings that best suits the speed of the available internet connection:
The default setting for the streaming quality is Streaming High 6 to 9 Mb/s, which gives very high quality streaming. There are two data rates mentioned for each streaming quality setting. The lower number is used for the lower frame rates of 24p, 25p and 30p, while the higher data rates are used when you are running higher frame rates of 50p and 60p. For example, if you select Streaming High quality and are running at 1080p24 then it would use the 6 Mb/s data rate.
What are the data rates if I only want to record the program output via the USB-C?
If you are only recording, or you have more internet bandwidth and want higher quality, then there are three data rate settings based on the higher HyperDeck Studio Mini quality settings. These are a good quality data rate when you need broadcast quality streaming and recordings.
The data rate used by the quality setting will change depending on the video standard ATEM Mini Pro is running at. The lower number is used for the lower frame rates of 24p, 25p and 30p, while the higher data rates are used when you are running higher frame rates of 50p and 60p.
Can I record and live stream simultaneously?
Yes, you can live stream and record at the same time. The streaming quality setting will determine the quality of your recording. For example, if you set the streaming to Streaming Medium, then the recording will also be set to Streaming Medium automatically. This might result in recordings that are not as high as you like, so it might be better to choose a higher streaming quality if you want higher quality recordings.
It’s best to experiment with settings to work out the best selection for quality. Lower frame rates also need less data, so you might want to switch ATEM Mini Pro down to a lower frame rate for better quality streaming and recording. The ATEM Mini Pro input converters will take care of converting any high frame rate HDMI inputs to the lower frame rate.
Am I able to use the USB-C port to record to a disk and still use the ATEM Software Control?
When your ATEM Mini Pro’s USB-C output is connected to an external disk for recording and you want to keep using ATEM Software Control, the USB connection will be busy, so you will need to connect your ATEM Mini Pro to your computer via Ethernet. This is quite easy, as you can connect a network cable direct between your computer and the ATEM Mini.
The ATEM Software Control will display a dialog box asking you to select what ATEM Mini you want to connect to, and it will look down the Ethernet connection to find ATEM Minis automatically. Simply select the ATEM Mini Pro and it will connect. The advantage of using Ethernet for control is you can use your computer’s wireless internet for your live streams, so you get a mobile streaming studio.
Can the unit be battery powered?
Yes, ATEM Mini Pro has DC inputs so can be powered from an external battery which is compatible with the power supply parameters of 12V 36W DC.
Is there frame synchronization on input?
Yes, in addition to having a Teranex scaler and standards converter on every single input, each input features frame synchronization so switching between sources will always be clean and you don’t have to use broadcast video hardware with genlock inputs. Any HDMI source will work and it will be re- synced and format converted all automatically.
Is the picture in picture function configurable?
Yes, although the control panel’s physical buttons will recall set positions for picture in picture (PiP), the ATEM Software Control allows you to freely resize, move and crop the overlay. Additionally, borders and shadows can be added and DVE moves can be applied with macros, exactly as on any other ATEM model.
Can ATEM Mini Pro be controlled by other hardware or third party software?
ATEM Mini Pro uses the standard ATEM control protocol so it can be controlled externally from devices such as an ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel. It can also control other devices such as a HyperDeck to trigger record or playback remotely. Some third party products will also work, however compatibility would need to be checked.
Product Review team –
Does ATEM Mini Pro include a multiview?
ATEM Mini Pro includes a professional multiview that lets you see all 4 video inputs, plus preview and program
on a single HDMI television or monitor. The built in multiview also displays the media player and there are 3 status views that show streaming, disk recording and the audio mixer input levels and processing.
The status views help you maintain awareness of your streaming and recording status on the same monitor as the camera views, so you can work with everything you need on the single monitor.
How can I preview my sources before switching?
Simply select the multiview to the HDMI output, then you can preview all of your sources, including the HDMI inputs and the media player, all on one screen. If you want to see a preview of a source before you bring it on air, you can change the ATEM Mini Pro switching style to program/ preview in the ATEM Utility. ATEM Mini Pro even supports previewing a transition feature so you can see how a key or transition will look before performing it on air.
Is the software free?
Yes, the ATEM Software Control application is available free of charge and works on both Mac and Windows computers. ATEM Software Control can be downloaded from the Blackmagic Design support page. With ATEM Mini Pro, you can simply use the ATEM Software Control on the computer that’s connected via USB.
ATEM Software Control is normally used via Ethernet and it will also work with ATEM Mini Pro via Ethernet if you have multiple users, however with ATEM Mini Pro it also works via USB so it can be launched without worrying about any network or Ethernet settings.
Can I use external USB-C disks to record from ATEM Mini Pro?
ATEM Mini Pro supports direct recording of your stream to external USB flash disks, thumb drivers or even low cost mechanical hard disks. The recordings are an exact duplicate of the H.264 video files with AAC audio that you are using for streaming, and the quality for recordings can be set in the streaming pallet in ATEM Software Control.
This means all recorded files can be directly upload to sites such as YouTube and Vimeo. ATEM Mini Pro supports multiple USB disks so you can swap disks as you record for non stop long form continuous recording. You can even use a 4 disk Blackmagic MultiDock for recording to multiple SSDs.
How do I stop/start recording to external USB-C disks?
There is a REC button on the front panel of ATEM Mini Pro to start or stop recording of program output to USB-C. Above the REC button is a disk status LED indicator which illuminates green if the current drive is formatted and ready to record, and red while recording. You can also start and stop recording in the ATEM Software Control Record Stream palette.
Can I check how much recording time I have remaining on my external USB-C disk?
The ATEM Mini Pro multiview has a dedicated recording view which displays current status when recording to external disks via USB-C. The recording indicator shows when disks are connected and recording, along with a duration counter that displays how long the current disk has been recording. Record status indicators display the name, available space and record time remaining. When two disks are connected, the indicator will illuminate red for the disk that is recording.
Can I live stream via Ethernet on ATEM Mini Pro?
The ATEM Mini Pro model supports direct streaming to YouTube, Facebook and Twitch which use the RTMP streaming protocol. The streaming engine is built in and is optimized for streaming compression so you get better first generation compression quality, smoother motion without dropped frames and the settings are much simpler. There is an XML file with additional settings that could be used to add other streaming services.
Even though streaming is built in, you can also use the USB as a webcam output if the USB connection is free, so you can use a computer to live stream via video conferencing apps such as Skype and Zoom, and streaming apps such as OBS.
Can I still use OBS or similar streaming software?
Yes, the new ATEM Mini Pro model still works with OBS, and other live streaming software just like the ATEM Mini model does, however as it uses the USB connection,
if you are recording to an external disk, you will be using the USB connection for recording. In this case you would want to use the built in streaming that uses Ethernet and will stream direct to streaming services.
How do you monitor the streaming connection and quality?
The ATEM Mini Pro multiview has a streaming view display which shows on air status, broadcast data rate and the cache status. The streaming platform being broadcast is displayed in the bottom of the view for visual confirmation.
Product Review team –
What is the auto detect mode in the video format settings?
All ATEM Mini models automatically set the program output to match the format and frame rate of the number 1 video input signal it detects. This eliminates the need to select the video standard for the switcher because the ATEM Mini will do it for you. All you need to do is connect your camera to input 1 and the ATEM Mini will follow its video standard.
Any other inputs will then be converted to the ATEM Mini’s video standard, which is automatically set to the video standard of the camera plugged into input 1. Of course you can always select a specific video standard manually in the ATEM Mini settings if you choose.
Do all my video sources need to be the same video format?
ATEM Mini Pro features built in video conversion on every input. This means that all video inputs, in any HD format such as 720p, 1080i or 1080p can be connected and converted to the desired program output format. Of course if the switcher is set to auto in the video format menu, it means the switcher won’t standards convert input 1, because it’s being used to set the video standard for the switcher and all other inputs will be standards converted if they are different.
Can I connect a PC or Mac to the HDMI inputs?
Yes, the HDMI inputs on ATEM Mini Pro work at all popular computer resolutions up to 60Hz.
Can the ATEM Mini Pro be bus powered via USB-C?
ATEM Mini Pro can not be powered via USB-C because it’s compatible with USB 3.0 computer connections as well as USB-C connections for webcam use. Supporting USB 3.0 allows ATEM Mini to work with a much wider range of computers for its webcam connection, however USB 3.0 does not have enough power to run ATEM Mini Pro.
Can the ATEM Mini Pro be used without a computer?
Yes, ATEM Mini Pro can be used without a computer. It can be used as a standalone switcher, just by using the front panel buttons. This is why the panel includes audio mixer controls and it features the auto video format setting. Video will be output on the HDMI video output connection. Even the streaming setup and streaming key will be stored internally, so the ATEM Mini Pro can start streaming at any time, without a computer.
Are the audio inputs mic or line level?
Both analog audio inputs are switchable between mic and line level.
Can I program complex control sequences that can be replayed by the ATEM Mini Pro?
You can use the ATEM Control Software to create and recall macros. Macros and ATEM Mini Pro switcher states can be saved and loaded into other ATEM Mini Pros later or even bigger ATEM switcher models.
Product Review team –
Can I create my own graphics and use them as graphics on the ATEM Mini Pro?
Yes, you can superimpose any graphic with alpha channel over the program output. This will allow you to use your own logos and graphics on your program output. You can store up to 20 still graphics inside the ATEM Mini Pro media pool.
Could the ATEM Mini Pro be used as a graphics inserter?
Yes, by loading the graphic with alpha channel into the ATEM Mini Pro media pool and then selecting it using the keyer, it will overlay that graphic onto live incoming video. If you use 2 HDMI sources for key and fill and the downstream key you can key live video overlays. You could even use a single HDMI source with a green background and an upstream chroma key to overlay on live video. Using the chroma key for graphics overlay is a simple way to create live animated titles.
What cable do I need to connect the ATEM Mini Pro to my computer?
ATEM Mini Pro has a USB-C connection for webcam output via a computer which is compatible with USB 3.0 connections so you can use USB-C to USB-C or USB-C to USB 3.0 cables to connect to computers. You can also use Ethernet with a direct cable between your computer and the ATEM Mini, or you can connect both your ATEM Mini and your computer via your regular Ethernet network.
Can you use the picture in picture and chroma keyer at the same time?
You can use one or the other. ATEM Mini Pro features a single upstream keyer that can be switched between either picture in picture (PiP) effects or chroma keying.
