To edit details of a Switcher Connection, tap on the connection from the MixEffect Home screen. Tap the Edit button at the top-right corner of the screen to change the following settings:

  • Name

  • IP Address

  • Notes

  • Default Section

  • OSC

  • HTTP Server

  • SuperSource Macros

  • Video Follows Audio

  • Multiview Overlay in Remote Webview

  • Source Images

  • Hidden Inputs

Name

The name of the Switcher Connection is displayed at the top of the MixEffect Home screen when you are connected to that switcher. It's also used when instructing MixEffect to connect to a particular switcher using the OSC message.

IP Address

Notes

These are notes that you can write about your Switcher Connection.

Default Section

The Default Section is the section page that you will go to when you first connect to a switcher. It will also be the destination you go to when tapping on the switcher image from the detail page.

You can change this section by editing the switcher and closing a new default section in the drop-down list.

NOTE: The section list may contain sections that are not supported by your switcher. Make sure your switcher supports the feature backed by your choice or you may see a blank screen.

OSC

  • Enable OSC Server: Turn this on to activate the OSC Server for the selected switcher connection.

  • IP Address: MixEffect will display the IP addresses you can use to send OSC messages to MixEffect.

  • Port: The port number that the OSC server will be listening on.

NOTE: In order to use OSC, you must have enabled OSC support it in MixEffect Settings > Automation.

If the OSC server is running, a green dot 🟢 will appear next to the OSC header. If the OSC server is off, a red dot 🔴 will appear. An orange dot 🟠 means there may be a problem establishing the OSC server connection. Make sure you do not have another instance of MixEffect running that's connected to the same switcher. This will cause multiple OSC servers to try to bind to the same port, which may cause none of the servers to work.

HTTP Server

MixEffect 1.6.2 and higher can send a JSON feedback object to devices to Companion via an HTTP Server. This feedback system has replaced the OSC Companion Feedback system, which was present in previous versions of MixEffect prior to 1.8.0. You must also use Companion 3.0 or higher to take advantage of the HTTP server.

  • HTTP Server Port: Default port is 8080.

The URL to access the JSON feedback object is IP_ADDRESS_OF_MIXEFFECT:8080/feedback.

You can filter what is return in the feedback response by adding the filter parameter and including a comma-separated list of items you want returned:

  • macros

  • me

  • aux

  • mediapool

  • colorgenerators

  • legacyaudio

  • fairlight

  • output

  • supersource

  • dsk

For instance: https://10.0.1.145:8080/feedback?filter=me,dsk

If you are implementing a polling system, please keep your requests to 500ms or longer.

If the HTTP server is running properly, a green dot 🟢 will appear next to the HTTP SERVER header. A red dot 🔴 signifies the HTTP server is not running. An orange dot 🟠 means there may be a problem establishing the server connection. Make sure you do not have another instance of MixEffect running that's connected to the same switcher. This will cause multiple HTTP servers to try to bind to the same port, which may cause none of the servers to work.

SuperSource Macros

Video Follows Audio

Multiview Overlay in Remote Webview

Enable this setting if you are using the Remote Webview and want to have the Multiview Overlay super-imposed on top of the Remote Webview panel in the Switcher section. This is useful in situations when MixEffect drops the connection to the switcher and reconnects.

Source Images

Set the static images for the input sources of the switcher connection for use in the Multiview Switcher panel.

Hidden Inputs

Hide video source inputs from buttons in Switcher Panels, fill and source menus, and other places within MixEffect's interface. Say you have an ATEM Mini Extreme ISO and only use 5 of the 8 inputs. To exclude these inputs from MixEffect's interface, perform the following:

  1. Tap the switcher you want to edit under the Switchers section in the sidebar.

  2. Tap Edit.

  3. Tap Save.

In the Switcher Connection detail page, you'll see a list of the hidden inputs. These inputs will be hidden from panels such as Program / Preview in the Switcher section.

Reset Layout

From the Switcher Connection detail page, you can tap the Reset Layout to revert the Switcher Section navigation back to the defaults. You may want to do this in case you have removed some switcher sections and want to get them back (i.e. HyperDeck).

ID

A unique alpha-numeric ID will be displayed for each switcher connection. This ID is the name for the folder contined in iCloud Drive > MixEffect. This folder contains Video Follow Audio information for the specific switcher.

This is the IP address of your ATEM switcher. If you find that you are unable to connect to your ATEM, make sure that the switcher's IP address matches that in your Switcher Connection. Refer to the page if you run into any problems.

You can control MixEffect from Companion or any app that supports sending of Open Sound Control (OSC) messages. Refer to the documentation in the for more details.

If you have an ATEM switcher that supports SuperSource, you can instruct the switcher to run a macro when entering or existing a MixEffect SuperSource preset. This powerful feature allows you to configure exactly how your switcher should be configured when transitioning between presets. Learn more about this feature in the .

If you have configured for your switcher connection, you can automatically enable it when connecting to your switcher. This is useful in situations when MixEffect drops the connection to the switcher and reconnects.

In the section "Hidden Inputs," specify in a space-delimited list of input source IDs. To see a list of possible input source ID values, go to .
