Here are the basics of using EasyWorship 7 with the Blackmagicdesign ATEM Television Studio mixer.

Blackmagic Design ATEM Television Studio Pro 4K. Live production mixer for broadcast and AV users. Digital 4K (3840 x 2160) video mixer with control panel. Includes operating software ATEM Software Control for Mac 10.12 Sierra, Mac High Sierra 10.13 or higher.


  • You will have to learn how to use the ATEM device in order to accomplish some of these tasks. Please consult the documentation for the ATEM studio as needed.
  • The ATEM Television Studio software is required to set up the ATEM.
  • You will also need to understand how to change display settings in Windows and how to set up a theme in EasyWorship.
  • You can find instructions for creating themes here.
  • If you want to use Alpha Channel masking, you’ll need to connect two video outputs from the computer into the ATEM mixer.

We have a list of recommended video cards on the System Requirements page.


Please note that if you are using cameras, you’ll want to match the resolution of the cameras because the ATEM can only accept the same video resolution on all inputs. You cannot mix video resolutions on the ATEM mixer.

For example: If your camera is sending to the ATEM at 1920x1080, then you have to set your EasyWorship output to 1920x1080 and also the Alpha Channel output from EasyWorship if you're using that.

  • The ATEM Studio mixer.
  • A video card that supports at least three extended desktops simultaneously.
    • The first output connects to the control screen to be able to run EasyWorship.

For example, you could rack mount ATEM Television Studio HD and use the free space to add a HyperDeck Studio Mini as a master recorder all in a single rack unit. You could even add Teranex Mini converters to convert additional sources between SDI and HDMI. Combine it with the Blackmagic SmartView 4K for an ideal multi view monitor, and even add a Blackmagic Duplicator 4K that lets you simultaneously record your program to 25 SD cards at the same time, so you can sell them to customers at the end of the event!

Live production situations demand the highest reliability. That’s why ATEM Television Studio HD uses an internal aviation quality operating system that’s designed for real time processing and high reliability. This reliability, combined with the miniaturized design, gives you a much better solution than a cumbersome PC based switcher with cables and plug in cards hanging out everywhere. ATEM Television Studio HD is like getting 10 different devices, all in a single, reliable and portable design!
