Plugging in your Audio
ATEM Camera Converter supports 2 channels of camera audio, which are carried on audio
channels 1 & 2 of the optical fiber SDI connection. By default, ATEM Camera Converter uses the
embedded audio from your camera's microphone. However, if you want to plug in an external
audio source, connect your audio equipment to ATEM Camera Converter's two balanced 1/4"
TRS inputs. When external audio is connected it will be used instead of the embedded
camera audio.
The 1/4" TRS connectors accept stereo analog audio at microphone level and are carried on
audio channels 1 & 2 of the optical fiber SDI connection.

Confirming Your Video Signal
When your ATEM Camera Converter is powered, a camera is plugged in, and a valid SDI or
HDMI signal is present, you'll see the control panel 'video' status indicator illuminated.
Additionally, if you have your monitor connected and the PGM button set for camera video, your
camera output will be displayed and you'll know your ATEM Camera Converter is working.

Connecting ATEM Studio Converter
The first thing to do is plug in power, plug in your cameras, a headset, and connect to a
switcher. You can also plug in an external microphone, such as a gooseneck microphone if you
want to use talkback without using a headset. You can even output each camera's audio to a
mixer via balanced analog XLR connectors.
