Blackmagic ATEM Television StudioHD8 and HD8 ISO Production Switchers

The Blackmagic ATEM Television Studio HD8 packs a full broadcast production workflow into one live switcher with eight standards-converted 3G-SDI inputs, each accepting sources up to 1080p60. Its production engine includes four ATEM Advanced Chroma Keyers, two downstream keyers, a SuperSource processor and two media players, giving a small crew the layering, keying and transitions to run a polished multi-camera show.

Beyond switching, the HD8 is a self-contained studio: it has a built-in hardware streaming encoder, a master recorder, an audio mixer, talkback, multiview and a four-way Ethernet switch, plus optional internal cloud media storage. It comes two ways: pick the configuration with the 2TB SSD card fitted (BMD-SWATEMTVSTA/HD08/2) if you want the master recorder ready to roll out of the box, or the no-storage configuration (BMD-SWATEMTVSTA/HD08/0) if you would rather record to your own external USB-C disk.
