Epic production Tom. I appreciate the efforts and resources you put into this to educate us. I’m glad you mentioned this hissing from the audio output, I kept thinking there something wrong with my mic and headset. Thank you.
Tom.. great work and thanks so much.. You said that there is a possible sync issue with OBS. In the case of just recording a video podcast utilizing the ATM and Rodecaster, any ideas on a stand alone sync recorder such as a Atomos or something? I am doing a two camera two mic and would like a final output to edit.
I have tried using 1/4 inch TS mono cables to a 1/8 inch TRS stereo cable and I'm getting nothing out of the Rodecaster. The Blackmagic tech support person I spoke to said the 1/4 inch cable had to be stereo which I can't find.
Tom by default the mic inputs on the ATEM are mic level inputs. Before connecting a line level output (e.g. Rodcaster) you need to go into the ATEM settings and switch the mic input to line level. Failure to do so will result in overdriven audio on the ATEM as you first saw in your video when the meter was pegged red. FYI.
I bought the same red cable that Tom showed in his video for my RCP II and changed the ATEM mic1 to "line". When I stream or record to disk from the ATEM I get a buzzing or humming noise. If I use OBS to stream or record and use the RCP II main as my audio source everything works just fine. I'm still working to figure this out :) Here is a sample of what I am getting... ruclips.net/video/d3N25iThcno/видео.html
So I’m curious, do you have to use a computer to do a livestream with the ATEM & Rodecaster Pro 2 or can’t you just hook up your mics to Rodecaster Pro 2 and cameras to ATEM and stream from there?
I'm watching all your videos! I started by watching all your Rodecaster Pro related videos, today I went to the store and bought one for myself! Rode, sponsor this man, I'm sure many others bought Rode products just by watching your videos, and not because you promote Rode, but because you provide an honest opinion, at least that is the feeling I'm getting from your videos! Thanks for the excellent advice!
Haha, I'm so glad to hear this. I didn't realize how much Rode stuff I had until I started making videos about it. It really just sits in that sweet spot of price/features/quality. There are other really great brands out there too of course, but I also like that Rode designs and makes everything themselves in Australia.
@@tombuck I wasn't aware of that! I first time heard from your video, and then I run a mini fact check, and indeed Rode has the whole production chain in Australia, which is really great! Not only they support local economy, but the more business act like that, the better the macroeconomic perspective of both the businesses and the country. I'm still playing with rodecaster pro like a kid since yesterday haha
Thanks! I’m not quite ready for any of this equipment just yet but this is the direction I am headed. It is daunting. Your videos are helpful & a crutch. Have you recorded anything that walks a newb through the advantages of hdmi switching? Thanks again & keep up the great work!
I have to give you props on your ability to squeeze so much content out of one piece of gear (the rode procaster), I need to take some notes for my channel.

@Tom Buck thank you so much for this!! I had been using the CamLink 4K for my Canon so that I could go live, and I had a Rodecaster Pro for my audio for my podcasts.

Thanks, Tom! If you remember, I asked you this exact question a few weeks ago. I took your advice ( use your preferred method) and everything has worked perfectly since I set it up. Thank you so much. This video really explained the options well.
I've now watched multiple videos of yours in a row and you are brilliant. Looking at the comments, others agree. Thank you for such amazing and helpful insights. Wow. You're incredibly cool for taking the time to show and describe all of this.
Thank you for this Jason! Reading this totally makes my day. I'm glad the video was helpful and I really appreciate the time you took to leave such an awesome comment 👍
This is an amazing set up in your home office. I am new and I am just starting with windows to go live streaming for zoom calls, and small groups. So I am trying to create a home office/studio. Thanks as always for sharing. Great video,
Awesome video Tom! Just wanted to say how much I have been enjoying your podcasts lately. They have kept me well entertained and I learn things from them too!
@@tombuck haha yes indeed! I just copped the Atem mini and a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema. Going to use a 2 cam set up with my URSA Mini as the main cam. I haven’t checked your channel, but do you use a stream deck as well? I want a seamless way to incorporate motion graphics and a soundboard. If so, how do you like it, and if not, anything else you recommend?
Thanks to your videos I use the Rodecaster and ATEM mini for my live podcasts and they're fantastic! The ATEM mini allows me to toggle camera angels during the show very easily with the push of a button.
@@abdulla9912 I am not sure if this is the answer you're looking for but the Rodecaster connects to my laptop with a USB cable and the ATEM uses an HDMI and USB a-c. If I remember correctly the ATEM did not come with any cables so those I bought separately. I stream live on RUclips and so I just select the ATEM and Rodecaster for my audio/video when I'm about to go live.
Hey Tom, got myself one of the mini pro's today and hooked it up to the Rodecaster Pro using the 1/4 LR Monitor jack. Took a while to get the audio levels right . One thing that got me stumped for a while was I needed to change the mic1 setting on the mini pro to "line" as the default was "mic". Completed a live stream test and all worked out great. Switching from PC to MAC to Cam1 was nice. Although mini hdmi to hdmi didn't seem to work via the mini pro for Cam 2 :-( Even managed to test Teams, Zoom and some OBS projector output. Wouldn't have done all this without watching your video!!
Clapping 👏🏼 at the beginning of a podcast is a good tip for beginners. You can match the audio spike in the video and audio tracks to synch audio with video. 👍🏼
Rode caster pro and canon creator kit alone takes forever to come in with high demand market it’s been 9 weeks since ordered and both plus pro caster mic just arrived. Still waiting on the atem mini and elgato stream deck to come in. Q’s up to this point been using an iPhone 10 XR to create and stream - How do I connect a canon M 50 to stream also how to turn the rode mic on M50 off so I can use my pro caster mic 🎙 many thanks 🙏 in advance for your content we binge watch you BTS Savvy
Lots of things are definitely in high demand at the moment. For the M50, I'd recommend checking out Canon's EOS Webcam Utility and seeing if that'll work to help you stream with it.
@@tombuck Thanks, I just thought about it but can you drop a video link of yours if you have one about connecting the M50 for live streams I don't remember if you or Sean said if I need an elgato cam link to connect thanks in advance love all your videos because of you as a @RUclips Creator you greatly help Savvy Turtle on our journey of learning how to become a Great Creator like you and others we hold the highest respect for!
@@SavvyTurtle I have an M50 and use it with OBS. If you don't have a cam link, (I dont) then all you have to do is download the canon eos Webcam utility from their website. Once you install it, all you have to do is plug your camera into your computer with a micro usb cable and it will show up as a video source. Hope this helps!
@@aaronhess yes thank you, much appreciated I will go order one now as I'm not sure if it comes in the Video Creator kit! but it comes with a rode mic, dont want to use it rather use the rodecaster pro with the pro caster mic.
About to go crazy in the future with this podcast I’m planning!...and your recommended gear/kit videos are quickly manifesting my ideas into a full blown internet show😂😂😂🙏🙏🙏 can’t thank your enough for all of your awesome content! This setup plus a loop station and M1 MacBook Pro... I’m drooling at the content possibilities!🙌
Amazing videos. They did help me to choose the equipments to buy a week ago. Am enjoying my tutorial classes being a beginner and you just awesome. Barikiwa sana.
Hello Tom, Please talk through the fact that you can make the ATEM inputs accept "LINE LEVEL" signals rather than the excess gain of the "microphone level" input. This adjustment will greatly improve the sound of the system. Other mixers may have XLR line level outputs and those can also be input to the ATEM with the input set to "LINE LEVEL".
Good point. I'm experimenting with this when using Oktava MK-12 mic into the audio interface, then output from there into the Atem's Input. Then also the input gain in the Atem Mini Software as well as output levels are important.
@@HomesickMac The quality of sound can be improved by setting the gain structure of the system. Setting "LINE LEVEL" output into the line level input rather than placing it into a "microphone level" input with lots of gain. You might like to visit the RANE discussion of gain structure in this link. ruclips.net/video/XZhBXyt5iKQ/видео.html KEN
You were extra Pun-ny today! And then you set up for a great pun at the end only to say you get great Audio Video! Perfect! And the B-Roll was perfect as well in the video! Well done! I have been over thinking doing a live stream, and back out every time I think I'm ready. One day I'll just appear live... that day is not today!
Haha, I definitely get the overthinking bit. I’ve found the best thing to do is just jump in and then adapt along the way. Glad you appreciate the absolutely ridiculous puns 😁
Excellent. I knew only the first two options. I never remembered of connecting separate video and audio in livestream. So, I'm going to test this third connection next time live. Great video. Congratulations.
Thanks for this Tom! I've done two major multicam zoom presentations with this gear and audio was a real challenge. Never thought of doing it via the computer! Will try that next time.
Professor, thank you very much... I am testing this today.... I think I need to get that red cable.... many thanks... always top quality material! Most appreciated...
I use them both connected to the MacBook Pro through USB C, with OBS. I usually get between 150 to 200 ms delay on the video so if I delay the audio about that much, it syncs perfectly.
Great video Tom, I tried different setup with similar equipment as well and I agree with you - audio quality is much better when using the Atem and Rodecaster separately. Love your YT channel :-)
There is another option: Use the two 1/4" in the Røde Rødecaster Pro and attach it to your camera (I use the XLR port on the camera (Panasonic GH5 and X2000)). Then you get the sound feed with your video in on the HDMI port on the ATEM Mini.
Came here to post this. Its the best way to get your audio and video in sync. Keep in mind you are now putting your audio through your camera's preamp.
This only works for xlr. The 3.5mm mic input on the camera will have a high frequent sound as well as its only mic level the xlr adapter on the gh5 can be set to line level.
@@mikaelspetz That’s right. That why I wrote that I use the XLR port on both cameras. On the GH5 you need the sound adapter with XLR of course. The X2000 camcorder has everything built in. I was more pointing out an option without sync issues.
XLR output would be neat. I think there's the possibility to add effects with firmware updates. There was reverb in a beta release last summer that was super cool, but it was removed in the final release.
Great video. IMHO The second approach is the right way. Connect the two devices to your computer. In the first approach, you are sending a line level signal (headphone out) to a mic level input on the atem mini... This will bring up noise and hiss. Line level signals should not be sent to a mic level input if you have other options.
You can switch the MIC-inputs on the ATEM Mini to line-level instead of mic-level, what works best when connecting a mixer like the Rodecaster Pro. Works also with stereo-signals, as far as I remember.
How do you do that? I experience humming and buzz when I connect the phones out of my analogue mixer to the mic input of atem. Is this a ground loop issue or line to mic issue? Appreciate some good advice here. Thank you!
@@colinchew8440 Let me quote the ATEM manual (documents.blackmagicdesign.com/UserManuals/ATEM_Mini_Manual.pdf): " Microphones typically have weaker signals compared to line outputs from other audio devices. This means when mic is selected, the input is boosted slightly to compensate. This also means that if mic is accidentally selected when a line level input is plugged in, the audio will sound unusually loud. If the audio sounds much louder than it should be, check that line is selected instead of mic." The MIC/LINE switch is a bit hidden though: You find it in "Settings > Audio > General" within the ATEM Software Control. Hope this makes sense.
@@colinchew8440 I would try to use the line-out of your mixer instead of the phones-out and switch the ATEM to line. This could help reducing humming and buzz.
I am trying to find the video where you broke down why you went from Atem Mini to the Pro. I am about to buy 1 or the other and I wanted to see what pushed you to upgrade. Thanks for your content. There are many that review their equipment but you really make it like a conversation and not a lecture.
Thank you for this amazingly specific video on these two pieces of gear in particular!! About to use these two hand-in-hand at work with Zoom and/or Wirecast!
I hadn’t had issues with audio sync until a recent OBS update. I had to actually update my RCP sync to 200ms; it’s super slight I know but still noticeable. I’m thinking it’s with the update though. But I use this exact setup, and love it!
I would of loved to have seen a comparison between going through the rode caster to hear the quality difference between that and just going straight into the ATEM mini.
I was going to say, the ATEM has a pretty capable audio processing engine built in, it’d be fun to see how you got on running something like the VideoMic NTG directly into the ATEM alongside your video sources.
We’re also using the ATEM+RCP. We like to plug each unit directly to the MacBook. But we also use an iPad as our main video source. The iPad runs into the ATEM via an HDMI adapter. Audio from the iPad runs directly into the RCP via the Phone input channel. Then we use OBS to capture and a StreamDeck XL as the main control surface. We also run background music from an iPhone into the RCP via the Bluetooth Chanel. We love this set up as it takes a lot of the workload off the MacBook CPU. The downside is we do get some strange audio interference from the iPad. We’re not sure if it’s the channel or maybe a faulty cable. But with a little background music the interference isn’t noticeable and we can always clean it up a bit more in post. But we would like to eliminate it eventually.
Nice lecture! Great picture quality! The audio quality is also very satisfactory. The camera's performance is also good, but it seems that the quality of the lighting determines the quality of the video. Next, I would like to ask for the whole process of video recording. I would like to see what I am using as a studio, such as the location of lights and cameras. I think this is more popular with beginners. As an expert, you will see and learn about the process of making your videos and the overall atmosphere of the studio you are making. I want to see you soon. I especially want to see photos or videos with lighting. Thanks for the link to buy amazon lighting. I want to see the location of the lights I'm actually using. The picture quality is very good.
Thanks for the kind words! I do have several videos about my studio space and editing workflow that might be helpful. I also have a number of videos about my camera and the settings I use 👍
@@tombuck If there is a video link that you can refer to, please introduce it. I am amazed to see your video quality. The picture quality was so sharp and clear that my eyes became very large.
Thanks for making this Tom. Incredibly helpful video!! Would love to see an additional video incorporating this workflow into a RUclips live stream. Thanks again~
You can handle the syncing for audio/video directly within the ATEM as it has frame delays. I do this and have a preset file setup and configured because the video coming in from my Panasonic GH5 is heavy and the audio always arrives first. Nice thing is that once you set it up, you can just save all of the configuration as a preset file and just load it in when you turn on the ATEM
@@tombuck Unfortunately mine just stoped working reliably today and had to throw it away and drop $500 on a new one, 2 months out of warranty... they told me it would be as much to repair as a replace... argh...
Another way you can get the audio into the atem is to run the audio through the camera and use the audio/video via hdmi to the atem and then atem usb c to the computer this will help with audio sync.
Tom, I hope you solved my latency problem. I had the Rodecaster hooked into the computer and using the LR connects into the ATEM. I’m going to try it tomorrow. I experienced latency at 8FPS and higher. Ecamm was terrible. I like the idea of letting the ATEM do the video and the rodecaster doing the audio..we will see.
This is some fantastic information to know, thank you so much for taking the time to explain how to use both of these powerhouses at the same time for broadcasting! :D
Hello Tom!!! Can you do this same video with the Zoom Podtrak P8??? I’m a rookie on this and will like to know how to set it properly with the ATEM Mini Pro. Thanks and keep the great work!!!
Just awesome videos! Your channel has done so much to help me get a RUclips channel going. I'm running into one crazy problem though. I have the Rodecaster Pro and Atem Mini Pro each connected to am iMac through two usb-c cables -- and a laptop connected through HDMI to the Atem for playing videos. I see the audio in the audio meter in the Multiview monitor, but no sound from the video. The Zoom software is set to take video from the Atem and the laptop shows it is using the BMD HDMI as as output. I must be missing something! The video is there but viewers can't hear it when we switch to it. (Insert hair-pulling here) 🙂 I do have AFV in use as well.
Hey Gary! This can definitely be a confusing problem. Do you have HDMI set as the audio output for the playback laptop? It might be that there just isn’t an audio signal being sent out. The other tricky part, if I’m understanding correctly, is using audio from the RCP and ATEM simultaneously. Something could be getting left out there. In which case you could just run audio from the laptop through the RCP or even use Loopback to create a virtual audio device that combines the RCP and ATEM. 👍
@@tombuck Hey Thanks for these things to check.! The laptop is showing the HDMI port as the audio output so that looks good. All the mics are going into the RCP via XLR cables and all of the cameras and laptop are going into the Atem via HDM cables. While the video shows in Zoom, it looks as though the audio isn't getting passed. I tried running a cable from the RCP headphone jack to Mic 1 on the Atem (and unplugged the USB from the RCP) with no luck. I feel like I'm so close ........ having that flummoxed feeling ..... as in my flux capacitors are on the blink. By the way, I''m hoping Blackmagic Its watching and adds a power button like you said. I mean, c'mon ....... going to use what you mentioned in the video to do the power on/off thing.
Haha, oh no! I'm trying to focus on pieces of gear and show difference things you can do with them, I genuinely don't mean to keep expanding shopping lists!
You can see and adjust audio input levels for the ATEM via the ATEM software interface. I just can't seem to get it coming out of the headphones. You can also adjust the limiter and compression...
I needed this, to make sure I’m doing it right! Haha. It also seems to make my camera feeds look a little bit better. Thanks so much for introducing me to both of these!
So many connection options! So if the RCP and the ATEM mini EACH have their USB-c connection to the laptop, then the ATEM mini is only being used for the multi-camera feature? That makes the most sense to separate the 2 devices- audio and video-- to manage.
The easiest direct connection would definitely be to use the monitor outputs on the Rodecaster to the 3.5 input on the ATEM. And the chair is from Ikea 👍
Unfortunately, the best audio setup doesn't allow you to switch to a second video source which has audio included, as this will not be sent on from the ATEM Mini I suppose? Just found you channel. Pretty cool stuff!
Hi Tom, you did a Live Stream walkthrough about 2 months again without the ATEM mini. Any chance you can do that please. Also would be handy to know what software you use to do your live stream along with your setup etc etc. Thanks in advance.
I'm VERY interested in what Zoom has to offer, but I don't have access to the P8 and I always feel uneasy about buying unnecessary equipment solely for reviews (I prefer to just buy what I need at the time).
@@tombuck possibly and live streams. Except when I recorded my last zoom call using the rodecaster and the cam link, audio was out of sync. Going to test it with the Atem the next go around.
Hi Tom! thank you guiding with this video! very very helpful! just one question! I am planning to use the ATEM mini + Rodecaster + Wirecast to live stream simultaneously with different platforms. Have you tried it before? Thanks again beforehand!
Thanks Christian! I've never used Wirecast, but you shouldn't have any issues. I do typically prefer to run each device into the computer separately through USB, but of course as this video explains, you can run everything through the ATEM.
Yeah, it can definitely be overwhelming. When it comes to Zoom classes and stuff, I always. recommend starting with audio. Even a simple USB mic can make an absolute world of difference. From there you can move on to cameras, lights, etc.

Amazing video Tom! I actually have a local church looking to start live streaming so I am gonna recommend this to them. Thanks for the info!
It's great for churches! Can't go wrong with Rodecasters and ATEMs!
you can monitor the sound from the atem software, in the audio tab, also, you have audio meters on the multiview of the pro and pro iso atems
you can also sync audio and video with the included delay control in the atem software.
to sync the audio and the video in the computer, you can use the sync block in audio hijack
Good looking on the advice
Can you explain sync block in audio hijack ?
Fast forward to today. ATEM Mini Pro has Fairlight, which makes the Rodecaster Pro practically redundant for the audio aspect of a video streaming setup. I would use an iPad into Mic 2, for sound effects on the ATEM. The Rodecaster would be useful for handling mix minus scenarios, however. Just my 2 cents worth. Thanks for all your excellent videos, by the way.

I've now watched multiple videos of yours in a row and you are brilliant. Looking at the comments, others agree. Thank you for such amazing and helpful insights. Wow. You're incredibly cool for taking the time to show and describe all of this.
Thank you for this Jason! Reading this totally makes my day. I'm glad the video was helpful and I really appreciate the time you took to leave such an awesome comment 👍
This is an amazing set up in your home office. I am new and I am just starting with windows to go live streaming for zoom calls, and small groups. So I am trying to create a home office/studio. Thanks as always for sharing. Great video,
It’s always an evolving setup! It’ll never be finished, but that’s half the fun 👍
Awesome video Tom! Just wanted to say how much I have been enjoying your podcasts lately. They have kept me well entertained and I learn things from them too!
Wow, that's awesome to hear! Sometimes podcasting feels like talking into a black hole, so I really appreciate the feedback!
This is the video I wanted to see and the lovely algorithm knew just how to serve it up
Woo hoo! The algorithm is working in my favor! 😁
@@tombuck haha yes indeed! I just copped the Atem mini and a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema. Going to use a 2 cam set up with my URSA Mini as the main cam. I haven’t checked your channel, but do you use a stream deck as well? I want a seamless way to incorporate motion graphics and a soundboard. If so, how do you like it, and if not, anything else you recommend?
Thanks to your videos I use the Rodecaster and ATEM mini for my live podcasts and they're fantastic! The ATEM mini allows me to toggle camera angels during the show very easily with the push of a button.
I’m so glad it’s working out! Good luck with your show 👍
Which connection do you use?
@@abdulla9912 Connection?
@@TheBarbarShow how you connect your rodecaster and atem device? Which methoddo you use
@@abdulla9912 I am not sure if this is the answer you're looking for but the Rodecaster connects to my laptop with a USB cable and the ATEM uses an HDMI and USB a-c. If I remember correctly the ATEM did not come with any cables so those I bought separately. I stream live on RUclips and so I just select the ATEM and Rodecaster for my audio/video when I'm about to go live.
Hey Tom, got myself one of the mini pro's today and hooked it up to the Rodecaster Pro using the 1/4 LR Monitor jack. Took a while to get the audio levels right . One thing that got me stumped for a while was I needed to change the mic1 setting on the mini pro to "line" as the default was "mic".
Completed a live stream test and all worked out great. Switching from PC to MAC to Cam1 was nice. Although mini hdmi to hdmi didn't seem to work via the mini pro for Cam 2 :-(
Even managed to test Teams, Zoom and some OBS projector output. Wouldn't have done all this without watching your video!!
Hey I’m glad it’s working out! Sounds like you’ve got a pretty incredible setup going! 😎
@@tombuck still a work in progress but getting there. Just want to say I appreciate the content and the way in which you present it.
Amazing content and dad jokes, Tom. Seriously.. thanks for being you and sharing this goodness!
Clapping 👏🏼 at the beginning of a podcast is a good tip for beginners. You can match the audio spike in the video and audio tracks to synch audio with video. 👍🏼
Rode caster pro and canon creator kit alone takes forever to come in with high demand market it’s been 9 weeks since ordered and both plus pro caster mic just arrived. Still waiting on the atem mini and elgato stream deck to come in. Q’s up to this point been using an iPhone 10 XR to create and stream - How do I connect a canon M 50 to stream also how to turn the rode mic on M50 off so I can use my pro caster mic 🎙 many thanks 🙏 in advance for your content we binge watch you BTS Savvy
Lots of things are definitely in high demand at the moment. For the M50, I'd recommend checking out Canon's EOS Webcam Utility and seeing if that'll work to help you stream with it.
@@tombuck Thanks, I just thought about it but can you drop a video link of yours if you have one about connecting the M50 for live streams I don't remember if you or Sean said if I need an elgato cam link to connect thanks in advance love all your videos because of you as a @RUclips Creator you greatly help Savvy Turtle on our journey of learning how to become a Great Creator like you and others we hold the highest respect for!
@@SavvyTurtle I have an M50 and use it with OBS. If you don't have a cam link, (I dont) then all you have to do is download the canon eos Webcam utility from their website. Once you install it, all you have to do is plug your camera into your computer with a micro usb cable and it will show up as a video source. Hope this helps!
@@aaronhess yes thank you, much appreciated I will go order one now as I'm not sure if it comes in the Video Creator kit! but it comes with a rode mic, dont want to use it rather use the rodecaster pro with the pro caster mic.
Your videos are just so awesome I've really learned a ton from you lately one of the most deserved subscribes I've seen
Wow! Thank you! I hope I can keep making videos that are helpful/enjoyable for you.
About to go crazy in the future with this podcast I’m planning!...and your recommended gear/kit videos are quickly manifesting my ideas into a full blown internet show😂😂😂🙏🙏🙏 can’t thank your enough for all of your awesome content! This setup plus a loop station and M1 MacBook Pro... I’m drooling at the content possibilities!🙌
Amazing videos. They did help me to choose the equipments to buy a week ago. Am enjoying my tutorial classes being a beginner and you just awesome. Barikiwa sana.
Thank you for all of the kind words!
Hello Tom,
Please talk through the fact that you can make the ATEM inputs accept "LINE LEVEL" signals rather than the excess gain of the "microphone level" input. This adjustment will greatly improve the sound of the system. Other mixers may have XLR line level outputs and those can also be input to the ATEM with the input set to "LINE LEVEL".
This is true and and important thing to keep in mind, thanks for the reminder!
Good point. I'm experimenting with this when using Oktava MK-12 mic into the audio interface, then output from there into the Atem's Input. Then also the input gain in the Atem Mini Software as well as output levels are important.
@@HomesickMac The quality of sound can be improved by setting the gain structure of the system. Setting "LINE LEVEL" output into the line level input rather than placing it into a "microphone level" input with lots of gain. You might like to visit the RANE discussion of gain structure in this link.

@@honeyken316 Thanks very much!
You were extra Pun-ny today! And then you set up for a great pun at the end only to say you get great Audio Video! Perfect! And the B-Roll was perfect as well in the video! Well done!
I have been over thinking doing a live stream, and back out every time I think I'm ready. One day I'll just appear live... that day is not today!
Haha, I definitely get the overthinking bit. I’ve found the best thing to do is just jump in and then adapt along the way. Glad you appreciate the absolutely ridiculous puns 😁
@@tombuck The more ridiculous the better!
Amazing Tom! Great job and a wonderful look into the ATEM and Rodecaster capabilities. Bravo-Zulu!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent.
I knew only the first two options. I never remembered of connecting separate video and audio in livestream. So, I'm going to test this third connection next time live. Great video. Congratulations.
It's been super reliable for me, so good luck!
Thanks! Very informative, witty, funny, "down-to-earth!"
Thank you! 🙏
Thanks for this Tom! I've done two major multicam zoom presentations with this gear and audio was a real challenge. Never thought of doing it via the computer! Will try that next time.
Good luck! 👍
Professor, thank you very much... I am testing this today.... I think I need to get that red cable.... many thanks... always top quality material! Most appreciated...
Thank you! I found the cables on Amazon just by searching “colored xlr cable” 👍
I use them both connected to the MacBook Pro through USB C, with OBS. I usually get between 150 to 200 ms delay on the video so if I delay the audio about that much, it syncs perfectly.
Great video Tom, I tried different setup with similar equipment as well and I agree with you - audio quality is much better when using the Atem and Rodecaster separately. Love your YT channel :-)
It's definitely been the most reliable method for me. Glad you're liking the channel, thanks for the kind words!
You do not have any sync issues either? I have to use Audio Hijack to make it work
There is another option: Use the two 1/4" in the Røde Rødecaster Pro and attach it to your camera (I use the XLR port on the camera (Panasonic GH5 and X2000)). Then you get the sound feed with your video in on the HDMI port on the ATEM Mini.
Great tip! Thanks!
Came here to post this. Its the best way to get your audio and video in sync. Keep in mind you are now putting your audio through your camera's preamp.
This only works for xlr. The 3.5mm mic input on the camera will have a high frequent sound as well as its only mic level the xlr adapter on the gh5 can be set to line level.
@@mikaelspetz That’s right. That why I wrote that I use the XLR port on both cameras. On the GH5 you need the sound adapter with XLR of course. The X2000 camcorder has everything built in.
I was more pointing out an option without sync issues.
I just wished the Rodecaster Pro Had XLR Outs and On Board Effects Like Reverb, Chorus, Etc. Then I would have Considered Buying It!
XLR output would be neat. I think there's the possibility to add effects with firmware updates. There was reverb in a beta release last summer that was super cool, but it was removed in the final release.
Great video. IMHO The second approach is the right way. Connect the two devices to your computer. In the first approach, you are sending a line level signal (headphone out) to a mic level input on the atem mini... This will bring up noise and hiss. Line level signals should not be sent to a mic level input if you have other options.
The ATEM does have a line level option on the mic input. (via the software), but I still agree that connecting them separately seems to work best.
@@tombuck aha! I did not know that! Great content Tom!
You can switch the MIC-inputs on the ATEM Mini to line-level instead of mic-level, what works best when connecting a mixer like the Rodecaster Pro. Works also with stereo-signals, as far as I remember.
Great tip, thank you!
How do you do that? I experience humming and buzz when I connect the phones out of my analogue mixer to the mic input of atem. Is this a ground loop issue or line to mic issue? Appreciate some good advice here. Thank you!
@@colinchew8440 Let me quote the ATEM manual (documents.blackmagicdesign.com/UserManuals/ATEM_Mini_Manual.pdf): " Microphones typically have weaker signals compared to line outputs from other audio devices. This means when mic is selected, the input is boosted slightly to compensate. This also means that if mic is accidentally selected when a line level input is plugged in, the audio will sound unusually loud. If the audio sounds much louder than it should be, check that line is selected instead of mic."
The MIC/LINE switch is a bit hidden though: You find it in "Settings > Audio > General" within the ATEM Software Control.
Hope this makes sense.
@@colinchew8440 I would try to use the line-out of your mixer instead of the phones-out and switch the ATEM to line. This could help reducing humming and buzz.
@@pmontube there’s a line out but the xlr gets cut away when I use that. I need sound out for my live audience.
Thanks. That was exactly the video I was looking for for a long while.
Thank you for the informative videos. I am trying to decide if I need a Rodecaster Pro. I love your colourful cables.
The colorful cables are super fun on camera. And if it’s within your budget, I whole heartedly recommend the Rodecaster. 👍
I am trying to find the video where you broke down why you went from Atem Mini to the Pro. I am about to buy 1 or the other and I wanted to see what pushed you to upgrade. Thanks for your content. There are many that review their equipment but you really make it like a conversation and not a lecture.
Since I made that video they reduced the price of the Pro by $100, so I think it’s an awesome value.
@@tombuck do you know which video you explained why you upgraded to the Pro? This isn’t it. Thanks.
Thank you for this amazingly specific video on these two pieces of gear in particular!! About to use these two hand-in-hand at work with Zoom and/or Wirecast!
Woo hoo! Good luck!
I hadn’t had issues with audio sync until a recent OBS update. I had to actually update my RCP sync to 200ms; it’s super slight I know but still noticeable. I’m thinking it’s with the update though. But I use this exact setup, and love it!
Audio syncing is always a struggle, but I'm glad you fixed it!
Tom another brilliant video. Exactly what I needed.
Happy to hear it!
the more I watch Tom Buck, the more I find a place for every buck! (you taught me this, don't blame me)
I’m proud.
I would of loved to have seen a comparison between going through the rode caster to hear the quality difference between that and just going straight into the ATEM mini.
I was going to say, the ATEM has a pretty capable audio processing engine built in, it’d be fun to see how you got on running something like the VideoMic NTG directly into the ATEM alongside your video sources.
I did that when I first got it and it worked great. I just wanted to add the Rodecaster for more sources plus ridiculous sound effects.
@@tombuck Ridiculous sound effects? You? 😃
Sorry, I meant NPR-style interview segments. 🧐
We’re also using the ATEM+RCP. We like to plug each unit directly to the MacBook. But we also use an iPad as our main video source. The iPad runs into the ATEM via an HDMI adapter. Audio from the iPad runs directly into the RCP via the Phone input channel. Then we use OBS to capture and a StreamDeck XL as the main control surface. We also run background music from an iPhone into the RCP via the Bluetooth Chanel.
We love this set up as it takes a lot of the workload off the MacBook CPU. The downside is we do get some strange audio interference from the iPad. We’re not sure if it’s the channel or maybe a faulty cable. But with a little background music the interference isn’t noticeable and we can always clean it up a bit more in post. But we would like to eliminate it eventually.
VERY cool! I'm happy to know that an iPad will work with this setup.
@@tombuck it’s a huge help!
A channel so nice I wish I could subscribe twice!
I guess you could unsubscribe and then subscribe again?
@@tombuck But how would that affect my channel cred?
Nice lecture! Great picture quality! The audio quality is also very satisfactory. The camera's performance is also good, but it seems that the quality of the lighting determines the quality of the video.
Next, I would like to ask for the whole process of video recording. I would like to see what I am using as a studio, such as the location of lights and cameras.
I think this is more popular with beginners. As an expert, you will see and learn about the process of making your videos and the overall atmosphere of the studio you are making. I want to see you soon.
I especially want to see photos or videos with lighting. Thanks for the link to buy amazon lighting. I want to see the location of the lights I'm actually using. The picture quality is very good.
Thanks for the kind words! I do have several videos about my studio space and editing workflow that might be helpful. I also have a number of videos about my camera and the settings I use 👍
@@tombuck If there is a video link that you can refer to, please introduce it. I am amazed to see your video quality. The picture quality was so sharp and clear that my eyes became very large.
I was wondering if those mic inputs would work as a line input but is it a mono signal?
Awesome shirt, great video. Thanks Tom.
You know what you just did here sir... A GREAT VIDEO. haha. Cheers!
Thank you! I was nervous when reading the first part of the comment, and then relieved by the end. It was quite the roller coaster.
Thanks for making this Tom. Incredibly helpful video!! Would love to see an additional video incorporating this workflow into a RUclips live stream. Thanks again~
That's a great idea for a possible future episode!
I'm a Fan of the Rodecaster Pro and Tom Buck!
I'm a fan of you and this comment (and your channel of course) 😁
You can handle the syncing for audio/video directly within the ATEM as it has frame delays. I do this and have a preset file setup and configured because the video coming in from my Panasonic GH5 is heavy and the audio always arrives first. Nice thing is that once you set it up, you can just save all of the configuration as a preset file and just load it in when you turn on the ATEM
The ATEM software really is quite powerful and customizeable!
I also use the ATEM as my "goto" travel device because it's so much more portable than the Rodecaster... for audio recordings on the road...
@@tombuck Unfortunately mine just stoped working reliably today and had to throw it away and drop $500 on a new one, 2 months out of warranty... they told me it would be as much to repair as a replace... argh...
Another way you can get the audio into the atem is to run the audio through the camera and use the audio/video via hdmi to the atem and then atem usb c to the computer this will help with audio sync.
Yes- great idea!
Tom, I hope you solved my latency problem. I had the Rodecaster hooked into the computer and using the LR connects into the ATEM. I’m going to try it tomorrow. I experienced latency at 8FPS and higher. Ecamm was terrible. I like the idea of letting the ATEM do the video and the rodecaster doing the audio..we will see.
Good luck!🍀
Good info. Best audio was from red cable or with two USB. That headset is logical for audio sync, but it do not sound nice.
I find that there’s about 3 frames of delay or 200ms between the Atem and Rodecaster.
Tom!!! Thank YOU for this video! SO helpful.
I’m so glad to hear it!
This is some fantastic information to know, thank you so much for taking the time to explain how to use both of these powerhouses at the same time for broadcasting! :D
You're welcome, I'm happy it's helpful!
Thank you! This is exactly the setup I'm considering. Trying to decide between the ATEM mini and the ATEM mini pro.
Ooh, that’s a tough call! 🤔
Helpful, made it simple. Thank you!
Glad it helped!
Hello Tom!!! Can you do this same video with the Zoom Podtrak P8??? I’m a rookie on this and will like to know how to set it properly with the ATEM Mini Pro. Thanks and keep the great work!!!
Hi Tom, does the Rode Stream X can do what ATM Mini do for video?
My brother Tom! Amazing video🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you! 😎
Got my Thursday dose of Tom. Great video 😎
Just awesome videos! Your channel has done so much to help me get a RUclips channel going. I'm running into one crazy problem though. I have the Rodecaster Pro and Atem Mini Pro each connected to am iMac through two usb-c cables -- and a laptop connected through HDMI to the Atem for playing videos. I see the audio in the audio meter in the Multiview monitor, but no sound from the video. The Zoom software is set to take video from the Atem and the laptop shows it is using the BMD HDMI as as output. I must be missing something! The video is there but viewers can't hear it when we switch to it. (Insert hair-pulling here) 🙂 I do have AFV in use as well.
Hey Gary!
This can definitely be a confusing problem. Do you have HDMI set as the audio output for the playback laptop? It might be that there just isn’t an audio signal being sent out.
The other tricky part, if I’m understanding correctly, is using audio from the RCP and ATEM simultaneously. Something could be getting left out there. In which case you could just run audio from the laptop through the RCP or even use Loopback to create a virtual audio device that combines the RCP and ATEM. 👍
@@tombuck Hey Thanks for these things to check.! The laptop is showing the HDMI port as the audio output so that looks good. All the mics are going into the RCP via XLR cables and all of the cameras and laptop are going into the Atem via HDM cables. While the video shows in Zoom, it looks as though the audio isn't getting passed. I tried running a cable from the RCP headphone jack to Mic 1 on the Atem (and unplugged the USB from the RCP) with no luck. I feel like I'm so close ........ having that flummoxed feeling ..... as in my flux capacitors are on the blink. By the way, I''m hoping Blackmagic Its watching and adds a power button like you said. I mean, c'mon ....... going to use what you mentioned in the video to do the power on/off thing.
Another great video Tom thank you always man
Glad you enjoyed it
Another great video brother..and another piece of tech your going to make me buy!!!
Haha, oh no! I'm trying to focus on pieces of gear and show difference things you can do with them, I genuinely don't mean to keep expanding shopping lists!
@@tombuck ha such cool tech! I need it all!!
Oh I understand that feeling.
Thank you for helping me thru my journey one of my go too people if I got a question
I’m so glad it’s helpful 👊
@@tombuck very helpful
You can see and adjust audio input levels for the ATEM via the ATEM software interface. I just can't seem to get it coming out of the headphones. You can also adjust the limiter and compression...
Great video Tom! Listen...I need to know where you got that angled XLR Jack that's connected to you mic.
I forget the exact brand, but I looked up “90 degree XLR adapter” on Amazon and found them in a two pack.
@@tombuck thank you...i will be buying one today. (I hate cable slack)
They’re really handy and take a lot of strain off the connector.
I needed this, to make sure I’m doing it right! Haha. It also seems to make my camera feeds look a little bit better. Thanks so much for introducing me to both of these!
Your stuff looks and sounds GREAT already! Anything else will just be icing on the cake.
So many connection options! So if the RCP and the ATEM mini EACH have their USB-c connection to the laptop, then the ATEM mini is only being used for the multi-camera feature? That makes the most sense to separate the 2 devices- audio and video-- to manage.
Yes- that's what I really do most of the time to keep things clean.
I didn’t notice the video and sugei went in sync until you mentioned it at 6:12 lol amazing tips tho definitely will use.
How about a direct box between the Røde and the Atem?
Wondering about the white chair your using !
The easiest direct connection would definitely be to use the monitor outputs on the Rodecaster to the 3.5 input on the ATEM.
And the chair is from Ikea 👍
Simply Amazing!!!!!! As I was getting the questions on my mind, you were answering them.
Nice! That's definitely encouraging to hear!
great lesson on these two devices. thank you.
Glad you liked it!
Love the intro, simple and nice :)
Thanks! I try to get straight to the point.
Thanks Tom. Red to red , Green to green, .... blew to bits! LOL what could possibly go wrong ?
Great Video. Just wonder how you connected the Atem to your Mac? Usb or hdmi?
I use USB for the best quality 👍
A great tutorial. Many thanks for your work
You are welcome!
you really duped us with that dad-joke setup
💪😉
Unfortunately, the best audio setup doesn't allow you to switch to a second video source which has audio included, as this will not be sent on from the ATEM Mini I suppose? Just found you channel. Pretty cool stuff!
The ATEM Mini will allow you to mix in audio from your hdmi sources. 👍
Hi Tom, you did a Live Stream walkthrough about 2 months again without the ATEM mini. Any chance you can do that please. Also would be handy to know what software you use to do your live stream along with your setup etc etc. Thanks in advance.
I did an ATEM review that kind of touches on it- really it's not too different other than the option to add in multiple angles.
Tom Buck ok thanks Tom
Tom, how about a video on the new Zoom Podtrak P8 to use for Live Streaming or... Zoom P8 versus Rodecaster Pro. No one has done these topics. Thanks!
I'm VERY interested in what Zoom has to offer, but I don't have access to the P8 and I always feel uneasy about buying unnecessary equipment solely for reviews (I prefer to just buy what I need at the time).
Great vid...
I use BLACKMAGIC switcher and RODECASTER PRO AUDIO with USB connected to Vmix, and it works good
Greta video Tom. So helpful!
Thinking of a video podcast? 😉
@@tombuck possibly and live streams. Except when I recorded my last zoom call using the rodecaster and the cam link, audio was out of sync. Going to test it with the Atem the next go around.
Good luck! Try using the ATEM software to play with sync.
Super good points, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Tom,
How about the using the Rodcaster Pro and the Roland VR-HD1?
I haven't used the Roland yet, but they'd probably make a great combo 👍
Have you ever tried the GOXlr?
i haven't tried it, but I know it's a super popular choice.
Been waiting for this!
Hi Tom! thank you guiding with this video! very very helpful! just one question! I am planning to use the ATEM mini + Rodecaster + Wirecast to live stream simultaneously with different platforms. Have you tried it before?
Thanks again beforehand!
Thanks Christian! I've never used Wirecast, but you shouldn't have any issues. I do typically prefer to run each device into the computer separately through USB, but of course as this video explains, you can run everything through the ATEM.
I like seeing all this. But as a beginner, it is overwhelming. Is there a good place to start with upleveling my Zoom classes?
Yeah, it can definitely be overwhelming. When it comes to Zoom classes and stuff, I always. recommend starting with audio. Even a simple USB mic can make an absolute world of difference. From there you can move on to cameras, lights, etc.
You should probably try using balanced cables from your Rode to ATEM.
This Podcast Rabbit Hole never really ends. LOL just when I think I have it all. LOL
It NEVER ends...for better or worse.
I have a podcast channel and I want to video the interviews, do you recommend to buy the mini atem pro iso?
Personally, I feel like the ISO is overkill/too expensive, but the Pro is the sweet spot. I went with the basic version because that’s all I need.
