### M/E FTB Panels

If you have an ATEM switcher that has multiple Mix Effects Buses, you can add FTB panels for each individual Mix Effect Bus. They will be listed in the Edit/New Switcher Page section as:

* M/E 1 FTB
* M/E 2 FTB
* M/E 3 FTB
* M/E 4 FTB

The normal FTB panel operates on the currently selected Mix Effects Bus.
