Switchblade Systems VMC12 Control Panel for vMix and Blackmagic Design ATEM

The VMC12 vMix Control Surface with vMix 4K Software from Switchblade Systems equips you with both a control interface and the necessary PC software to facilitate video playback and control of your broadcast production. The VMC12 is a control surface designed for vMix software or Blackmagic Design ATEM with multiple LED backlit buttons and a professional T-bar. The vMix 4K software operates on Windows operating systems and allows you to switch between HD and 4K sources.

Camera

Use a video I/O card such as a Blackmagic or AJA product to capture from a live camera or external video feed. Up to 4K resolution is supported, depending on the limitations of the card and computer hardware. FireWire (HDV/DV) capture is also supported; however, there will be a significant delay.

Remote Screen Capture

Use the desktop from a Mac or Windows computer connected to the same network as a computer running vMix as a virtual input. Ideal for PowerPoint and Skype. Note: Audio Capture support for Skype and other videoconferencing software is available under Windows 7.

Play from Files

Previously recorded footage can be treated as an input source. Supported file types include AVI, MP4, H.264, MPEG-2, WMV, and QuickTime.

DVDs

DRM-free DVD content can be incorporated into the program feed, complete with menu navigation.

Audio Files

Use sound cues, music tracks, and other aural elements to spice up your production. vMix plays back MP3 and WAV files.

External Audio

Use the audio accompanying your video, a separate audio interface, or your computer's sound card to capture live sound.

Video and Audio Playlists

Combine multiple video and audio files into a bundle that will play on a single input channel.

Other Supported Media

In addition to audio and video, vMix supports PowerPoint, photos and other still image graphics, solid colors, and more.

Virtual Capture

Enables streaming to third-party software such as Skype, Google Hangouts, and VLC.

Record While You Stream

Record your programs in Full HD to AVI, MP4, MPEG-2, or WMV.

MultiCorder

Provides the ability to record the raw video and audio from capture inputs to separate files in addition to the main vMix recording. This feature is also known as ISO recording.

Output Locally

Output the program feed via a compatible video I/O card for monitoring, presentation to a local audience, or to use a separate video recorder. Additionally, unique to the 4K version, you can send a second feed along with the main output. You can a choose program, preview, multiview, or from one of two inputs.

Video Delay / Instant Replay

Create a video delay input and assign it to any available camera or output

Save multiple video clips of notable events for playback at a later time

Configurable slow-motion playback from 5 to 400%

3D GPU Acceleration

Thanks to 3D acceleration provided by compatible graphics hardware, vMix is able to handle processing and switching of high-resolution video without overwhelming your computer's CPU.

HD Virtual Sets

Choose from four built-in virtual sets or build your own. You can zoom in or out as needed, or define custom camera presets.

vMix Call

Quickly add up to four remote guests to any production using only a web browser and a webcam

Supports guests connecting with Google Chrome (version 56 or higher) and Firefox (version 50 or higher) on Windows or Mac, as well as Android and iOS devices (iPhone, iPad) running iOS 11+ using the Safari browser

Peer-to-peer encryption between each guest and vMix ensures a secure, low-latency connection

Auto Mix-Minus technology automatically handles the audio mixing for each guest, preventing echo and saving time

Full-duplex high-quality audio for all guests and return feed

Built-in return video/audio feed for each guest with configurable quality up to HD 1080p 4 Mb/s

Select any of the four outputs (only with 4K and Pro versions) as the return video for all guests

Select Master, Headphones, Bus A, or Bus B as the return audio feed for all guests; all options have built-in Auto Mix-Minus technology

Dynamic bandwidth estimation automatically adapts the quality of each guests video on the fly to match changing network conditions

Video and audio for each guest is available over NDI automatically

Real-Time Chroma Key

Not only for virtual sets, you can also use the keyer to introduce background elements of your own creation—a weather map, for example.

Built-In Title Templates

Easily add and edit a title or scoreboard from the many built-in templates, or build your own using any graphics or vector editing software. Adjust text, font size, and color. Alterations update in real time.

Live Video Effects

Color correct, deinterlace, sharpen, zoom, rotate, pan, and crop any input in real time. All effects are processed in 4:4:4 32-bit color space for optimal video quality.

Multiview

Combine two or more inputs in one image using a selection of multiview presets. For example, create a side-by-side between the studio anchor and a reporter in the field. You can customize the position of each element with provided zoom, pan, rotate, and crop controls.

Four Overlay Channels

Four overlay channels allow you to add graphic elements such as logo bugs or station indents. Each overlay channel can have its own transition effect, position, and border.

User Interface

Control vMix remotely using your Microsoft Surface, Apple iPad, Android tablet, or other touchscreen device using the built-in web interface. Customizable shortcut buttons can also be created to activate common production scenarios.

Touchscreen Web Interface

Other Features

The Audio Mixer allows you to keep track of all audio sources and includes the ability to mute, follow (with auto mixing), and delay any source. A VU Meter with peaking display helps ensure each input's level stays within acceptable broadcast limits.
