    Hi thx for the cool Video and great App, apreciate the effort a lot! I have a question. I used it on a Broadcast 4k and on a Mini Extreme. On the Broadcast it shows me: I have 4 different M/E (as it supports 4), but I can't seem to get 4 different supersources on that seperate M/Es working. If I change the layout, everytime it changes it on every M/E to that one. Is that a bug or can I only have one supersource layout accross all 4 M/E? But if that's the case, why can I change the M/E in the upper right corner? And on the Extreme I cant use the supersource section, there is nothing under the the 4 Boxes to select, no input sources. May be a bug too. Greetz

It seems like all the SuperSource boxes fly in from the left side when going from anything fullscreen to anything not full screen. Is there a way to adjust the direction of the animation?

    That's how the presets that come with MixEffect were set up. You can edit a preset or create your own and reposition the boxes however you want. Note that when running a preset, the boxes will move starting from their current position on screen to where the preset says they should go. If you have boxes moving off-screen to the left and run another preset, that's where they will start from. Be sure to save your preset after editing. You can long-press on the preset that you want to save your changes and choose Save Preset. Also read the docs on Use Box Sources, which shows you how to lock a source to a particular box in a preset. By default, the boxes take on whatever source happens to be loaded at the time. Use Box Sources allows you bake them into the preset. docs.mixeffect.app/explore/supersource

    Is there a way to add borders to all 4 boxes, or is that just a limitation of the minis. I have an extreme pro iso

  • @AdamTow

    @AdamTow

    Limitation of the ATEM Mini Extreme, ATEM SDI Extreme, and the new ATEM Constellation HD models. Only the 4K Production/Broadcast Studio and the Constellation 8K support borders. People have faked the borders using SuperSource Art (either Foreground or Background) or they added borders to boxes 1 and 2 using boxes 3 and 4 set to a Color input. You could then use the 2 DVEs to have two more boxes with borders. Animating them all together would be a pain, but it's possible to do so in Companion or via Shortcuts using MixEffect's animation controls.

    I thought „who needs an app when we got an advanced panel“, but this looks super useful. 😀 Maybe I missed it, is there a mode where the (cropped) boxes stay in place, and you can move the sources underneath? Say I got a panel of 4 speakers in horizontally cropped boxes, and one of them moves out of frame. Now I‘d have to adjust left and right crop, then move the box back. Would be great if I could just pan across the source.

    Hi Adam, thanks for all the effort and good work with the app. I'm a bit frustrated with supersource macros, I have an iPhone 8 Plus with iOS 16.1.2 and I can't create supersource macros, once I start to create the new macro, in the moment I choose a first preset on the supersource tab, the app close the macro automatically, and it's really frustrating, because I can't continue creating the macro, I would like to create a couple of cycling cameras changes with my atem mini extreme iso to work hands off, but till now nothing works as I expected, any suggestions?? (the problem was the same on iOS 16.1.1, just to let you know) Thanks!!

    There is a known issue when recording macros with SuperSource transitions IF you have the speed set to anything but Instant or Extra Fast (even then I've seen the macro stop). There appears to be a limit on the number of commands you can send to a macro during record (that isn't present if you enter the macro manually, but who's going to do that to animate their presets). A couple of workarounds: 1. Use the instant transition. You won't get the nice animation, however. 2. Use something like Companion to trigger the SuperSource preset and add any other commands you want to the Companion button (like you do with a macro) 3. Use Shortcuts to do the same thing in (2) 4. Use a tool like H2R Layouts (layouts.heretorecord.com), which can create a macro that does SuperSource animations. Something to keep in mind with the macro approach is that the start and end positions of the SSRC boxes will be fixed in the macro. The macro is stupid and doesn't know where the boxes are starting at. So when you press the macro, it will instantly position the boxes where the first macro command instructs them to. This can lead to a jarring appearance if your boxes are not at the exact spot where the macro thinks they should be. I'll make a note of this limitation in the documentation.

With the Run in Background feature, you can be in Shortcuts while MixEffect is still running in the background.

    Don’t worry. The 30-day trial isn’t a traditional subscription. You can be on the trial on both devices and the dates can overlap. You won’t be charged anything until you decide to purchase the Pro In-App Purchase. Then you can use the Restore Purchases option to copy your license over to the other device. Keep in mind there is also a paid-up front version called MixEffect Pro. When you download or upgrade, make sure you find the right MixEffect or MixEffect Pro that corresponds to what you bought on the App Store. Happy switching!

    Adam does the supersource feature save the ART media as well? I assumed it did but can not get this to work. For example: If I can a two box setup with a background graphic, I expect that media to stick with the saved supersource but it does not appear to work that way. Would I have to create a macro to get this to work ?

    Art is normally independent from the box sources. If you want to change the Art alongside a preset, you'll want to enable SuperSource Macros and bind a macro to a preset. See this for more details: docs.mixeffect.app/explore/supersource/supersource-and-macros For your case, you'll want to set up a macro that changes just the art. Then, attach that macro to your preset. You can create exit and entrance macros for preset that are called when you leave or recall a preset.
