## What is CastPad?

Your Blackmagic Design ATEM switcher — without sitting behind the big console.

Guide & live demo - https://castpad.app
(try it free in your browser)

CastPad puts the controls you actually use on one screen, on the tablet or phone in your hands. You build the layout, so it fits your show — not someone else's idea of a control panel.

▶ Up and running in seconds
Open the app and it scans your network, finding your ATEM and your HyperDeck and streaming devices for you. No fiddly setup — just connect.

▶ Lay it out your way
Pick the cards you need, place them. Hide what you don't use — and pull buttons back out just as easily.

▶ Fast where it counts
Big, clear buttons and instant on-air indication keep your hands ahead of the show. Glide keyers, DVE, and SuperSource between saved positions — no keyframes, no macros to write.

▶ HyperDeck & streaming too
Scrub HyperDecks precisely with jog/shuttle, hit record, switch slots — all in one place. Control streaming encoders as well.

▶ Nothing to worry about
Connects straight to your ATEM over your local network. No account, no sign-in, no data collection. Available in English and Korean.

### 5/5 — 간편 편리한 atem 스위쳐 제어

*2026-07-14*

영상 화면 넘길일도 점점 많고 그렇다고 전용컴터도 아니고, 또 왔다갔다 해야하고..그래서 찾고 찾다가 믹스xxx 썼었는데 기계 붙이는 설정이 좀 어렵고 화면구성도 어려워 사놓고도 잘 안썼는데 이거 뭐지? 하며 구입해 사용해봤는데 아주 좋네요. 장비도 바로 찾아주고 기타 버튼도 빼고 넣고 쉽고..가격도 저렴하니 한번 질러본게 성공입니다.
