I am a passionate user of Blackmagic Design gear, with a setup built around the ATEM Constellation 2 M/E. My goal has always been to create a self-enclosed, portable setup that allows me to control my broadcasts without the need for an additional computer. However, the lack of network connectivity in their upcoming ATEM Micro Panel poses a significant limitation.

The current design has a dependency on a computer to control the video switcher, which restricts its usage scenarios. For instance, during broadcasts, I prefer relying solely on my racked equipment rather than having an operating computer. This is not only more efficient but also reduces potential technical issues that could disrupt the broadcast.

Blackmagic Design is renowned for its innovative products and has always prioritized user experience. Therefore, we believe it's crucial for them to consider our request and add network connectivity before the product release.

By signing this petition you are supporting countless broadcasters like myself who wish for more flexibility and efficiency in our work setups. Let's urge Blackmagic Design together - let us control our video switchers independently from computers! Please sign this petition today!
