Disclaimer: I’ve not yet had my hands on this little beauty, but I’m hoping to change that in the very near future. Still, it’s such a compelling product for churches that I couldn’t wait to do a full demonstration & review before posting this video. At under $20,000 this represents a significant price/performance ratio for a small format switcher. With 12 layers of keying it’s unprecedented in a 1 ME switcher.
Watch as Echolab President Nigel Spratling demonstrates Echolab’s new Atem production switcher:
What do you say, churches? How would you most effectively use this kind of keying/layering power? Comment below.

Any idea how this compares to a product like the Broadcast Pix Slate series?
Not yet as I've not had any hands-on time with the unit. I think (assuming here) that it's not the same as a production switcher, but rather like a big multi-engine scaler with a production interface. Again, I need time to play and see the unit.
