Sample Shortcuts
MixEffect has terrific support for Siri and Shortcuts, allowing you to automate nearly everything in your ATEM switcher with shortcuts or your voice.
Read the documentation on all the Shortcut actions supported by MixEffect here.
Here is a list of sample shortcuts to get you started:
- Chroma Title Example: Example shortcut that walks you through the process of creating a Chroma title.
- Chroma Title Helper: Create Chroma or Luma titles and upload them straight to the Media Pool in your switcher.
- DSK Auto Logo: Automatically toggles an image of your choice to the downstream keyer, regardless of what image is currently being displayed.
- HyperDeck File Format: Changes the video mode of the HyperDeck, allowing you to switch between Teleprompter (HyperDeck Shuttle HD Only), H.264High, QuickTimeProResHQ, etc.
- Select HyperDeck Drive: Change the current drive used by a HyperDeck. Can be used to select the USB drive on the newer HyperDeck Studio lineup.
- Export Streaming XML: Helps you export your streaming settings to a file suitable for importing into ATEM Software Control on your macOS or Windows computer.
These shortcuts open MixEffect if a switcher is not currently active. The shortcut then either waits a pre-determined amount of time (MixEffect Helper) or prompts the user to tap a button (MixEffect Switcher Active) once the MixEffect has connected to a switcher.
- MixEffect Helper: Run this shortcut at the beginning of your shortcut to open MixEffect and wait a predetermined amount of time in order for MixEffect to establish a connect to your switcher.
