Designed for advanced video creators, event producers, and broadcasters, this compact yet powerful unit delivers industry-leading performance with real-time switching, streaming, and recording capabilities.
Powerful Multi-Camera Production
With eight 3G-SDI inputs, the ATEM SDI Extreme ISO supports professional cameras and video sources for seamless multi-camera switching.

You can live stream directly to platforms like YouTube, Facebook Live, and Twitch via Ethernet or USB tethering without requiring additional encoding hardware. The switcher also features advanced broadcast features, including transitions, keyers, and media players for professional-grade production.
Advanced Audio Control
An integrated Fairlight audio mixer provides high-quality sound mixing for all SDI inputs, microphone sources, and media players. You can control levels, apply equalization, and integrate audio effects to ensure crystal-clear sound for live broadcasts.
User-Friendly Yet Professional
Despite its advanced capabilities, the ATEM SDI Extreme ISO has an intuitive control interface, with clearly labeled buttons for camera switching, transitions, and effects. It can also be controlled remotely via ATEM Software Control for even more advanced production workflows.
Compact and Lightweight
With a weight of approximately 3.5 lbs (1.6 kg), this switcher is portable yet powerful, making it ideal for mobile production setups, on-location shoots, and small studio environments.
