How to run Hybrid Workshops w/ Remote Guests | ATEM Mini Extreme Setup

[@rss_thms]

This is quite possibly the best video on this I have found. I work for an online university and we want to improve the production quality of our webinars/lectures and also have something afterwards we can repurpose, so this has been incredibly helpful. Thank you for making this (and feel free to make more 🙂)

[@Calvarydima]

Probably the best video and definitely my KZbin Chanel creator of the week for me. Or perhaps even a creator of the month !

[@arinfilms]

Thanks a lot dear for such a wonderful masterclass. Regards

[@jimisweetnyc]

i'm genuinely impressed with this video. nice job.

[@Calvarydima]

Guys you are genius OM how simple and yet brilliant it can be

[@olanorrman6941]

In most web meeting apps today, 2024, I get audio issues when following this setup. However, if instead taking the audio back from the Atem via usb-c works perfectly fine.

[@offorh.i.c8374]

Great video! Timely also. I run, to the little best of my ability for now, the visuals probono for my local church within the AV team or any Faith-based programmes any church member has in my state and this video has just made my day. Thank you so so so much Sir and may God bless you all immeasurably.

[@kelvinsanaescott5500]

Outstanding video. We’ve been wanting to integrate zoom with our livestream setup for our Sunday school and mid week Bible class. I wasn’t sure how to set it all up. This video has been very informative and helpful. I will come back hopefully later this week to let you know how it goes. Thank you so much.

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

It's been a few months but how did you go?

[@APECEpic]

mahalos for the wonderful graphics and video . i was wondering about audio feedback when using a different sound board not so enabled for zoom as yours seems to be . it maybe safer to take audio from the camera shooting and then cut to the zoom with the sound from that computer whilst definitely shutting off the sound from all other sources . mahalo again

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

Cheers! That's definitely a work around if you don't have an audio mixer with a mix minus. It all just depends on the scale of your audio needs.

[@APECEpic]

​@@digitalministrymasterclass9421 this video and the graphics really helped to establish some basic foundations with regards to how we should set up; with of course the caveat of no zoom board . when we actually did the livestream i did get to delay the sound coming into the mix of hte cameras about 3/29.97 frames per second; about one tenth of a second with the ATEMmini extreme . this allowed for the hdmi camera delay of pic and audio . when zoom came into the stream picture i had no computer to take pic or audio from unfortunately . my friend then aimed the camera at the screen and we output the sound from the computer running the zoom directly to the sound system . it worked even with the mics on that same system going live, like a normal conversation on zoom . they had back and forths . i think this could be done sending the zooms picture and audio to the ATEM however we might have had to set up in the way stated previous or possibly have an awkward delay of 6 frames . not sure about that tho . in any case mahalos so much

[@APECEpic]

@@digitalministrymasterclass9421 oh yes one more caveat . i think with some streaming services they can stream your output from the ATEM straight to zoom without the picture needing to go to the computer as a source then to zoom networks from that computer by adding zoom as a destination somehow on hte ATEM . this could make less of a delay potentially and sync the two up ..... maybe

[@SuperCleary]

This is a really cool setup. Nice stuff.

[@LukeJohnEmmett]

Excellent video. So clearly explained. I run the tech side of virtual/hybrid events and this video has unfogged my brain with regards to easy routing and mix minus. My method was MUCH more complicated. So thank you for taking the time to share. Massively appreciated.

[@IFPRI]

Fantastic video! I've now transitioned into this exact set-up for my organization's hybrid events. One big question, though: Do you have guidance on how to configure the L-8?

[@nitsharma2k]

very comprehensive and relevent content. Thanks

[@FalschParker]

Hey Alex, thx for the awesome video. I really can not say how often i wtached it ofter last few months. But I just wanted to asure: I have 3 outputs i can control complety independant? So i can say the Atem that i now just want to switch the sources of the USb Output and so on, right? Because in many videos i saw the people showing the "outputs" menu button of the atem and there just appeared 2 soruces, the 2 HDMI's Thanks i advance. Cheers!

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

Thanks Flasch. I'm glad the video was helpful to you. The USB-C can only output the 'program'. It can't independantly 'preview' seperate sources like the HDMI output can. In otherwords, it can only see the final show. This can be an issue in some edge cases. I mention it in the limitations section of using it to feed the ZOOM chat, you can create a video feedback loop if you cut to them on full screen. You can't just keep one camera angle for them the whole time as they are seeing the final output, cuts and all. If you want that ability, you could instead feed a computer with one of the HDMI outputs and use a cheap USB HDMI capture card to plug it into the computer. Or use a HDMI splitter. Let me know if that answers your question :)

[@TerenceKearns]

Wow. That’s complicated but you did a great job explaining it

[@KenKasischke]

I just got the Extreme ISO and A stream Bridge and can't wait to use it professionally I am in a new area and I don't know anyone so I have been networking and also contacting friends and clients from my old area to let them know. It has been hard getting work lately what are some other Ideas you recommend to get more clients

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

Great question. Are you looking specifically for live-stream jobs? I use my ATEM Pro on freelance videography jobs so I can live edit 3-4camera interview shoots. It adds a lot of value and I haven't even touched the streaming functionality of the ATEM. Otherwise, It's PURELY a numbers game. Get your pitch right, show references for what you can do, and then tell as many people as you can. People underestimate how many contacts you need to have before you book a job. Especially for a streaming niche. It's a hard slog and easier said than done, I've definitely been there. God bless!

Just what i need to know, I am trying the same thing but using Atem 4 M/E studio (Main switcher) with Atem mini pro as webcam to zoom plus live to youtube, i want to be able to switch with Atem 4 ME so i`ll be inputing the zoom laptop to the main switcher.

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

I'm glad it was a help!

[@aquilliuscorp]

How do we prevent video feedback loop in a hybrid environment? We have a camera that is pointed at a projector screen to show the large room but, it's causing a video feedback loop that shows up on the projector screen.

[@fed02]

thanks and awesome work. Did you face any audio sync issues?

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

Nope! HDMI cords have a 5ms delay compared to straight audio inputs. To fix this you can delay the audio inputs on the ATEM. With this set up we would have delayed the audio going from the LiveTrak L8 going into the ATEM

[@fed02]

@@digitalministrymasterclass9421 Thankyou. Very tempted to purchase the LiveTrak L8.

[@intraportas8396]

Hi, I like this setup and want to test this next time, using two Mini's since I dont have the Extreme. But I can't see how the sound from the laptop running the presentation (it could be a video with sound), will get through to Zoom since all sounds is taken from the mixer. Any Idea how to achieve that?

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

Good question. You'd want to plug the Presentation Laptop's audio output into the mixer. So the mixer is still controlling all the audio. That way you can pass laptop Audio to Zoom and the in-room amplification. I tried to think of a way to do it via the Laptop passing Audio to the ATEM via HDMI, but to avoid feedback that's more trouble than it's worth. The laptop should easily be able to route video via one cord, and sound through another. You may need a small audio interface, or just an adapter to change the 3.5mm audio jack to XLR or 6.35mm jack

[@intraportas8396]

@@digitalministrymasterclass9421 Thank you for the answer! Yes, that's probably the safe way around this. I did however make a test using the Sound Control Panel in Windows 10. In the "Recording" tab and "Properties" there is a "Listen" tab. I checked the checkbox called "Listen to this device" after selecting the USB from the Atem. This actually routed the sound from the Atem to the headphone output. I can't say this is a good solution yet, so I will have to test this more later on.

[@rob.otnik.berlin]

Nice Video! I am currently building the same setup using VDO Ninja for the remote speakers. Do you have experience in routing multiple speakers from one Session to separate Video Outputs of a computer to have them on separate channels of the ATEM mini?

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

If VDO Ninja can output multiple video feeds, then it would be possible... but I have a feeling it can't. Usually, I switch the remote speaker on the PC and not on the ATEM. If you need to switch them on the ATEM then usually people set up multiple cheap laptops for each speaker so each one has a Video output. There may be a software solution but I haven't come across it. Let me know if you find a solution!

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

@R. Kämper I know that feeling! The perfect Niche solution but it's only on mac or pc. Hmmm... I'm theorizing here... but you could use Skype. Create an NDI for each speaker, then use Newtek NDI Video monitor to create a window for each speaker (there is a trick to open multiple windows however, there are tutorials online), route those to a separate SDI output each. There are pros and cons to that solution, but hopefully, it might help!

[@LukInMaking]

This is awesome! Thank you for sharing. I am curious how do you create the "slide in, rotating diagram" inserts? thanks in advance :)

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

No worries! I used Canva to create the diagram, I broke it down into several different versions. I then used premiere pro to animate the images by using keyframes on the position and rotation. Hope that helps! One day I'll do some editing tutorials if that helps.

Hey ! Nice video, but how can the people who are in different countries and joined in zoom, can hear the good quality sound from a meeting ?

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

As long as the other country has good internet, the sound quality should be the same. There may be a slightly longer delay however. If you capture good sound, everyone on Zoom should hear good sound. Hope that helps!

[@neltube]

Hi, what do you think about the other competitors to the audio board like the rodecaster pro which has deesser and compressions. Can the small board also power large speakers and not have feedback into the mics again?

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

If you check out my last video on building a small church studio, we recommended the Rodecaster for that set-up (use the timecodes to skip to the end). The Rodecaster is awesome, but it's more narrowed to capturing content (podcasts). It only has two balanced 1/4ich outputs for connecting a pair of stereo speakers. So if you use that for speakers, then you can't use it to feed into the ATEM and vice versa. You could get another audio interface with more outputs, but that's an additional cost and piece of gear. It may be worth it for some. The L-8 can feed XLR into large speakers (I imagine they have their own power), feedback then is more about the positioning of the microphones away or behind the speakers and having a cardioid microphone that only picks up whoever is using it and not the who room (like the one in the thumbnail).

[@justacowboy61]

Can you explain how the L8 and a laptop (using Zoom) are specifically wired? My laptop only has a headphone jack.

[@gmartinezcabrera]

Not sure if the other comment went through. Are you open to some paid consulting via zoom for my small school for disadvantaged adults?

[@NoelDelPilar]

Wow, love that set-up, just in time for my next client. One question, in the Zoom laptop, I Sign In Zoom as a Host or Join as a Guest?

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

I'd be signing in as the host to have more control. But if you were joining someone else's Zoom it would still work tuning in as a guest too.

[@cellodan6353]

Thank you for the video :) I am practicing with a similar set up. One issue I am having is that when the presenters laptop sends a video the quality is very poor for the zoomers. Slides and PowerPoint with no sound are just fine. When a video is needed to be shared I am sharing from within zoom and the zoom participants get a perfect video. Any tips on how to improve the presenters laptop video quality that the zoomers end up experiencing on their end ?

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

Hi @CelloDan, it could be a few things. You can turn on HD quality sharing within zoom for video. Within Share Screen advanced you can change make sure the frame rate limit is unchecked. You can turn hardware acceleration on. It could be a limitation of the presenter's laptop. When a presenter goes to share a video there is also an 'optimize for video clip' option. Hope that helps!

[@cellodan6353]

[@petecrouch8277]

Hi this video has been a massive help. I am setting up a hybrid event and using very similar kit. One question I have though is why are you not using the usb connection between the zoom l8 and the Zoom laptop? Is it because you only get mix minus on the trrs connection? Reason I ask is I am using a rodecaster pro for my connection to the zoom laptop but was planning on using the usb and not the trrs which it does have? Many thanks in advance Pete

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

Glad to hear it! That's a good question. Some USB audio interfaces aren't two way or mix-minused. I'd have to do some testing. Were you able to do it through the rodecaster?

[@metubemehappy]

@@digitalministrymasterclass9421 I maked a similar solution, using USB successfully with my Zoom Podtrak P4 (also has a TRRS-port).

[@tamarawebb6801]

Do you have to do any special settings on the L8 to make that two-way mix-minus connection?

[@fed02]

Hi, i got a sharp frequency feedback when i use the Master out or any of the 3 mix minus headphones out to the Atem Mini. Did you have this problem? or what cable did you use to send the audio mix to the Atem Mini Pro?

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

Sorry to hear that! What are you using for your audio mixer? Where is the feedback happening? If it's a feedback issue, I'd suggest drawing a diagram of your system to try and spot what is causing the feedback loop. Draw every input/output audio source on both the Atem and your audio mixer. It could be in the mix-minus routing, could be in the speaker/microphone placement. It shouldn't be a cable issue. It's a TRRS cable. Make sure the Atem audio inputs are set to Line In rather than Mic In if you are sending line-level audio from your mixer.

[@keithbrennan7280]

Hi Mate, loved the vid, I almost understood it all! I don't work for a church, but a Veteran organisation. I am looking at putting together something like this for training and regular meetings of advocates around the country. At the moment we use Teams and workplace, which are great, but on their own using webcams, don't look as good as they could be. We currently don't utilise all their functionality, like integrating Microsoft whiteboard and other screens to show MyGov for tutorials etc. I'm considering getting an ATEM and a Rhodecaster pro for a proof of concept to show my boss (hopefully they'll reimburse me!). I'll think about your course to gain some knowledge. Thanks again.

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

Cheers Keith! Good luck with levelling up your meetings.

[@Supanizar]

Great video, thanks for making it. Quick question, how are you allowing users online to advance power points if it is only local to you? If a remote participant shared it via zoom are you using a NDI capability to bring it into your ATEM mixer?

[@digitalministrymasterclass9421]

Great question. This set-up was designed around always having the primary speaker in the studio, secondary speakers could be on Zoom. If I was bringing in a remote speaker with a presentation and all they had was a laptop, I don't know if Zoom's new NDI features are advanced enough to have the full control I'd want. (Correct me if I'm wrong!) But I would be trying to get their full video feed, and a full presentation capture separately to feed into the Atem. This may require an additional laptop or 2 to feed into the Atem. (This is where a digital mixer like OBS would make this job easier, but the drawback is working across multiple switchers). There are simpler ways, but if you want to control everything on the in-room screens and online spaces it takes a few more elements. Worth the effort to avoid the basic screen share though!

[@srbh41413]

@@digitalministrymasterclass9421 Thank you for putting so much thought and effort into this. Regarding NDI out from Zoom, the first caveat is that it’s only available from the higher cost Zoom Rooms. That being the case, I haven’t personally used it, but the standard for NDI out is for the currently shared screen to be an independent source. As different participants share their screens, the NDI just shows whichever is live. I experience this in Teams, for example.
