Blackmagic Design Atem Micro Converter

An Audio Link Designed for the ATEM Range and MADI Workflows

Developed to integrate seamlessly with "ATEM Television Studio" mixers, the ATEM Microphone Converter addresses a key production need: bringing analog sources (microphones and line inputs) into a modern control room environment via robust digital transport. The choice of MADI (AES10-2020 compliant) ensures clean cabling, clear channel distribution, and a scalable approach, especially suited for studios, OB trucks, and fixed installations oriented towards broadcast or streaming.

The concept is simple: centralize capture as close to the sources as possible, convert cleanly, then send the audio back to your infrastructure over a single MADI link. In this context, the HDMI monitoring screen becomes a real operational asset, providing immediate channel status reading without constantly relying on a computer.

For Studios, Control Rooms, and Sets Seeking Reliability and Clarity

This converter is aimed at teams managing multiple speakers, ambient mics, playback returns, or line signals from an external mixer. It facilitates input normalization (mic/line), quick activation of +48 V phantom power, and level monitoring at critical moments: just before and during the broadcast.

Whether in webcast, concert capture, events, or talk shows, you benefit from a coherent audio chain: familiar analog connections on stage, digital transport in the control room. HDMI monitoring helps immediately spot clipping, a muted mic, mic/line source inversion, or phantom power mistakenly activated, without multiplying control points.
