The AtlasIED BlueBridge 16x8 DSP Audio Processorfrom AtlasIED BlueBridge 16x8 DSP Audio Processoris a platform designed for sound reinforcement and AV applications. The DSP Processor can provide audio and Ethernet connectivity for TCP/IP third party control and programmability. Using microphone preamps from THAT Corporation and 24-bit converters, this processor obtains a low noise floor. The 40-bit floating point DSP engine is designed to prevent digital clipping and to obtain maximum speed and power to process advanced algorithms in complex system designs. The unit can operate on any network, and when connected, the processor will be recognized and controllable. The processor provides standard mixers, gain sharing auto-mixers, delays, equalizers, level controls, duckers, filters, as well as many other processing capabilities. This processor is UL rated and intended for use in houses of worship, restaurants, presentation and conference rooms, courtrooms, and other areas in need of sound reinforcement and AV applications.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. What are the dimensions and weight of the base?

A: The Atlas Sound SB36WE base measures 15" from corner to corner, but unfortunately we do not have a spec for the weight of the base alone.

Q: 2. Can the OR-30 hold a Zoom F6 (with Sony L battery) and still have room in that compartment for 1 or 2 Sennheiser G4 receivers, please?

A: The internal dimensions of the ORCA OR-30 Audio Mixer Bag are 10.2 x 6.9 x 4.7" (260 x 175 x 120 mm) and the dimensions of the Zoom F6 Multi-Track Field Recorder are 3.9 x 4.7 x 2.5" (100 x 119.8 x 62.9 mm). This case should provide enough space for the F6, a Sony L-series battery, and one or two Sennheiser EK 100 or EK 500 G4 Camera-Mount Wireless Receivers.

Q: 3. Which 8K-capable cameras can be used with Ultimatte 12? What about the URSA 12K?

A: There are very few cameras that output 8k at this time. But Studio camera systems like the Sony UHC-8300 is one option. https://bit.ly/3xsWeG0

Q: 4. in relation with your answer “You will need at least 1 Ultimatte 12 and an Ultimatte Smart Remote 4 to control them and key your set. You will also need cameras and a virtual set software.” what is unclear to me is which set is going to make the render for the camera motion is ultimate 12 does that?

A: The Ultimate only does the keying of the image camera over background. It does not have virtual set type rendering of the image or modify the background.

Q: 5. Do you need the controller to operate the key?

A: I spoke to a Blackmagic tech support guy yesterday and he said you do not need the Smart Remote Controller to operate the Ultimatte 12. It does make controlling the unit and setting up a key, a lot easier but there is a software based controller that you can download for free on the Blackmagic website, on their support page.

Q: 6. What program do most people use for the virtual sets, unreal engine?

A: you can use unreal engine or Virtual set royalty-free stock footage

Q: 7. Can this be used as a live keyer for a virtual set with dynamically moving cameras? The promo materials seem to only mention fixed cameras.

A: The Blackmagic Design Ultimatte 12 4K Keyer Advanced Compositing Processor can be used in virtual sets, but the handling of foreground and background would be done with external processing.

Q: 8. Can you use a garbage matte with the HD Mini model?

A: Yes, the Blackmagic Design Ultimatte 12 HD Mini Keyer/Advanced Compositing Processor does support garbage mattes.

Q: 9. How much weight will this support?

A: Atlas has not specified a weight capacity but they do mention that the AD-14B is designed to accommodate any microphone mounts and it can hold the weight of most standard microphones along with the mount.

Q: 10. Do I retain camera control capabilities (ISO, shutter, focus) if I use the HDMI Ultimatte 12 with my BMPCC and ATEM Mini setup?

A: Yes it does. Just make sure to send the return feed from the ATEM Mini to the Ultimatte 12.
