Do I need this... no... will I watch the whole video and all ads, like the video and comment for Shane’s algorithm... why yes, yea I will. Love your work big guy keep on hitting it out the park
I was preparing to buy an ATEM mini pro, but was turned off by the lack of outputs. This video sold me on the 0402U. I'm really impressed with the features in a switcher this compact.
Shane, another great video! This does seem to be a great little unit. To my recollection there wasn't a single negative thing you said about it. Come on, you're not that geeky and nerdy, you've got charisma for days! Keep up the great content
This is one of the best switchers I have used. It's right there with the ATEM Mini Pro in terms of what it can do and also outdoes it in some areas. One thing to mention that I forgot that I don't think it does USB to hard drive direct recording. I actually really like the feel of this one a lot - build quality-wise and functionality-wise. edit: Thanks for the kind words! 🤓
@@GeekyNerdyTechy Thanks also for the great guitar video with Gerald Undone and all the great guitar TH-camrs! I've shared it with a bunch of dudes and they're all really thankful that you made such an informative video that applies directly to them! If it did ISO recording it would be the bomb! Firmware update perhaps?
Thank you for this fantastic video. Our Church and ministry is considering one of the P/VS0605s with the SDI inputs and balanced audio inputs. This helps a lot.
I appreciate all the work you've put into your review videos and it's helped me think about the different products out there. This switcher's abundance of adjustments is great but as a live switcher I noticed that at 6:43 and the audio as a gamer section there was a definite drop in volume of your voice when you added the game audio input. Yes you adjusted the game volume but I am not sure if you noticed your voice volume dropped. Once you removed the game audio input your voice audio level jumped back up to it's original volume. This gets my grey matter working and trying to figure how to do a work around and I wonder if you could use your Rodecaster to get the game audio and have full control during live streaming. Hmmm, lots and lots to think about.
In your video at 2:41-3:02 you use the T-Bar to cross switch to the other video input. Am I the only one to notice that it fades to black between each input? A cross dissolve should not fade to black but input to input. I watched it a couple of more times to be sure I'm not seeing things and it does it every time you switch using the T-Bar.
It was only a matter of time before other tech companies caught on to the new trends. Though in the UK this is in the same price bracket as a Mini Pro Iso.
Wow. This particular switcher seems to be a sleeper hit. It has a ton of features and addresses gamers’ complaints. Also, the audio sync seems easiest to adjust. Great video review as usual.
Right I came across the 401 in November, emailed the company and they briefly mentioned this 402 unit. While the world going crazy over atem I been wanting this .
please what's the difference between Elvid 4-Input HDMI Broadcast Video Switcher | BZBGear 4-Channel Live Streaming Video Switcher/Audio Mixer | AVMATRIX HVS0402U 4-Channel Live Streaming Video Switcher. which one should i buy?
It looks like your version is the one for 1299.00. If that is the case I would bypass this and go for the atem extreme pro. More inputs and extra perks.
HELP! We bought this switcher to use for our podcast, we want to have individual cameras for all 4 of us and us the switcher to switch between each person. Our cameras have usb male ends and the inputs on the switcher is all HDMI, how do we use our cameras with this switcher? We use a RODECASTER to record our audio right now.
I’ve been running trial and error using this for my podcast. My biggest issues are the audio delays and video glitching. Thank you for covering the audio with the Rodecaster! I’m definitely going to try that this weekend. Your video looks so clean and smooth. How did you run this video? Did you use an OBS type software or direct to a recording software in your computer? Thank you for the great review!!
Hi Nestor. I recorded into a hardware encoder/recorder called the Pearl Nano. The Audio delay can be adjusted easily thanks to the audio menu options to sync it up. It's common to have a delay between an external mic and the HDMI signals due to the latency difference but that can fix it up. If you are experiencing options switching try a short fade transition. Some older computers can't handle recording very well and OBS can be a tad tricky to get a nice recording directly from USB.
Sometimes it would be nice to know what the switcher can do without a computer connected - can it do rtmp or does it need a computer connected also todo the streamning this would be usefull information for portable setup.
This video was 100% without the computer connected to it. I used the hardware keys and menu on the unit to navigate everything. :) To stream, it requires an encoder of some sort whether that be a hardware unit or software like OBS/Streamyard etc.
@@GeekyNerdyTechy sure it does not need alot of computer then - a tablet or smartphone when its like a webcam via usb. maybe not so important then with maybe rtmp/rtmps etc. for outgoing streams . it looks nice compared with others for smal portable setup also. For a small portable setup with a few cams and maybe a laptop/tablet - i have found it can be a problem to use a small laptop with 2-4 cams via usb a problem - the encoding does need some power so if the encoding streamning was build in the videoswitcher the a powerfull laptop would not be needed.
Great review, I have an additional question re: the use of logos and lower thirds that might need the keyed? I often have need for 2-3 lower thirds in a broadcast. It would be great if all three could be accessible via one button push and show on screen (regardless of which HDMI input is live). This function alone would allow me to not need a laptop. Other systems I've seen can place one lower third via the keyer but require you to either control via laptop or change the LT/Logo selection via menus. Any insight? thanks.
Please What's the difference between the elvid vsw-4h-usb and the avmatrix hvso402u? Is it the same manufacturer? These products are same or what? Thank you
Thanks for sharing this My question is, what specification of laptop can be used with the 4 channel video switcher? My name is kelvin Oladayo from lagos, NG
Good video! Did you upscale the 1080p50 from the unit to 2160p50? 😉 I'm still on the fence about what product to get for my live streams. This one checks a lot of boxes, but pricewise it's close to the Mini Pro, so it's either better connectivity or encoding/streaming...
@@GeekyNerdyTechy It looked fine! Hey, since you have all the goodies, you should do a comparison video with the USB out from all the devices into OBS! Shouldn't be too much work.
In the U.S., the price of the "0402" is around $579 ... the "0401" is around the $379 price. Are there significant differences to justify the price difference ?
HVS0402U has T-bar, KEYER, more transition effects, more advanced audio mixing, media library, outputs can be configured to PGM, clean PGM, multiview, USB out, color, etc. These are all HVS0401 doesn't support. In all, HVS0402U is a totally different model which you deserve to have it.
I tried to connect my Canon RP to it and the AV Matrix didn't recognize it. Do you know what might be the problem? I connected my laptop via the USB-C and it recognized it. Is there some setting I'm missing???
Canon cameras have a hard time with a lot of switching consoles. I think you need to check for a firmware update and see if that fixes it (for the camera)
Awesome video review Shane!! Based on your experience would you still go with the ATEM Mini Pro due to the included encoder and Direct SSD recording OR would you recommend going for this new AVMatrix Unit even if the direct record to SSD is missing. What are your thoughts on this. I know not an easy and black & white answer...but I am curious to have your personal opinion on this topic. I am about to pull the trigger to buy one of these two-unit and your input would be most appreciated. Thanks In advance :)
I like the functionality of this a lot but the built-in encoder of the ATEM is great if you want to go directly out over ethernet and use the USB port for controlling the atem software. If you are using OBS I actually prefer this one.
watching you from France, Good review, as always. it seems that it can compete with the atem mini. i use a Rodcasterpro, so you point on this got my attention. But it seems you cannot back up to a direct SSD from it, like you can do on atem mini pro iso. can you tell more about that point ?
Hai sir this is senthil from India, last month I brought AVmatrix HVS0402U i have some of the doubts in switcher 1, I couldn't switch off the device I saw in the use manual press 3 times or shutdown from the software but it cannot. 2, I couldn't connect from the switcher to CPU or windows laptop that not sync. Please rectify this doubts because I have no options to do, please do the needful Thank you
It's Fantastic. I would have no hesitations recommending this but it's no better or worse than the ATEM. The biggest difference is this gives you more hands-on tweaking without having to hook up a computer. Both are solid units.
once you change something in the menu, does the unit remember it if you turn it off and turn on ( not using a monitor to see the extra menu), in other words, making changes at home and taking it out with out a monitor. Hope I didn't confuse you. Thanks
@@GeekyNerdyTechy thanks alot, I have another question for you, it's about the yolobox. I know if you use a line in separate from the HDMI, the video and audio will be off. Suppose I use the headphone jack from my camera ( canon 90D, which doesn't do audio out from the HDMI) and run that as a line in on the yolobox,do you think it will delay the audio enough so it would sync. Thanks ahead, your videos are great. Would love if you do a video showing some ways of getting the audio to sync that's cheap( switchers are on the edge of my budget). Thanks again.
Unplug the cable. Most switches don't have dedicated power buttons and I can't recall if this one did or not, but I don't think it has a switch on the back?
You did a great job of focusing on the important features. I have an ATEM Mini but I am interested in the Atomos X Cast for the Ninja V. Is there any chance you could review this unit?
I used it on a live stream the other day (just to test it) and it's really good. If you use OBS you can set the bitrate as high as need be and it looks really good. The ATEM USB signal isn't bad for streaming at all: Here's an example of the that - th-cam.com/video/GH7Vwi8rmUc/w-d-xo.html
I have bought the ATEM Mini and sent it back after two days of testing. The quality over USB was not acceptable for me. I use the elgato CamLink 4K and The output of the ATM is a clearly visible, noticeable downgrade. Especially in darker areas of the picture. To get the good quality I had to use the camlink on the HDMI output, but then the only latency free output is used. And the combination with the Rødecaser is semi good, because on the headphone output of the RC you always have this sound, which is only on the headphones not on the recording. And when I connect the RC over the Headphonejack with the ATEM, I HAVE these bad sounds on my stream or recording. My hope is, that someone will make a device with the functions of the ATM in 4K plus some other functi9ns for an affordable price.
Would be great to have another video covering the difference between capability difference to the ATEM Mini (pro) when it comes to Logo, PIP, Chroma, Luma, ...
I guess im asking the wrong place but does someone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account..? I was stupid forgot my account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me
@@GeekyNerdyTechy Thanks, I'm taking delivery on a AVMATRIX VS0605U on Monday. Pretty excited about it. I'm going to put it on the frontend of my vMix system. That 402 unit has some things like upstream and downstream keyer that even the 6 series doesn't have.
Sir would you suggest me how to record the live events in this switcher. Should I use a external recorder or any option for SD card record in the unit? Would be helpful Thanks in advance
@@GeekyNerdyTechy I was surprised to see that listing! But it's okay, I checked on Adorama and they have it listed for sale but on pre-order. I'd really like to know more how the Avmatrix vs. ATEM Mini Pro. The price points are almost the same but which is really the better buy? Thanks!
HVS0401 is just the simplest video switcher. HVS0402U is more powerful with more layer overlay, 2 PIPs,1 LOGO,1 DSK, 1 background layer,1 Choma key /Luma key. More complete sound mixing function. More powerful media management functions, better and more stable USB output, more convenient control software, and so on.
@@AVMATRIX_PROAV oh thank you very much to reply me i have a last question a would like to start a podcast i've got 2 camera already and a monitor for multiview and i wondering if it was better if i take the HVS0401 or the HVS0402U
Great video Shane! Any chance you could test the usb out of this switcher and input to the usb in on the yolobox? That way we can have 6 hdmi inputs and stream without a laptop.
Because I have both bought for testing I tested to connect the HVS0402U with USB out to the Yolobox USB in. It worked, but I don't checked it for a live stream if it is handled without hiccups.
Awesome review ! Got to know Mini Pro just got a Firmware update which allows any of the normal PC monitors, even 720P to be used as Multiview Monitor with Mini Pro. With this switcher, can a 720p monitor (normal PC HD monitor) be used for Multiview ?
A SWITCHER TO PLAY VIDEO? YOU HAVE TO BE VERY IGNORANT AND WITH MONEY, THE LUMIX CAMERA IS VERY GOOD, BUT PUTTING A CAMERA FOR STUDY, WELL IF YOUR BUDGET IS VERY BAD, OTHERWISE A CAMCORDER IS THE PROFESSIONAL WAY TO WORK, BUT IF YOU ARE A TUBER MAKING PODCASTS, EVEN WITH THE PHONE, YOU DON'T EVEN NEED A SWITCHER, BETTER THAT MONEY IS SPENT ON TRIPS AND MAKING REVIEWS OF PLACES WITH YOUR DJI POCKET AND DRON
This is one powerful unit. Let me know what you think!

Great review. Missing answer to two questions: Does it stream RTMP directly from the unit ? Does it have side-by-side view vith an image background?
It's a live switcher not an encorder so you'll need a computer or encoder to push it to the web.
can another be published
can I use a stream deck with this unit?
Hw do you connect the switcher to ur computer
Good video! Did you upscale the 1080p50 from the unit to 2160p50? 😉 I'm still on the fence about what product to get for my live streams. This one checks a lot of boxes, but pricewise it's close to the Mini Pro, so it's either better connectivity or encoding/streaming...
I did. I recorded it at 1080p then used final cut to output 4k. My GH5S camera was recording in 4K as a backup for those comparison shots :)

In the U.S., the price of the "0402" is around $579 ... the "0401" is around the $379 price.
Are there significant differences to justify the price difference ?
Thanks for the heads up, I have adjusted the description. I need to double-check the differences as this was the only one I had on hand.
The 401 doesn’t appear to have the T-bar for transitions for one thing. Looks very similar, function-wise apart from that as far as I can see.
The 401 doesn't have the usb port to use switcher as a webcam. 402 has one already and is the latest model

it is giving 0.8 Sec. delay in Video & Audio in realtime output in event . any reason ?
Connect audio to your camera then hdmi/SDI to the mixer..

To get the good quality I had to use the camlink on the HDMI output, but then the only latency free output is used. And the combination with the Rødecaser is semi good, because on the headphone output of the RC you always have this sound, which is only on the headphones not on the recording. And when I connect the RC over the Headphonejack with the ATEM, I HAVE these bad sounds on my stream or recording.
My hope is, that someone will make a device with the functions of the ATM in 4K plus some other functi9ns for an affordable price.
Hai bro how can I download a AVMATRIX software for Mac do u have any link ? Bcz in India we didn't get the Mac version so pls guide me
hello sir, can my hd 720p projector work with this video mixer ? coz the only pgm output / multiview at 1080i/1080p.
edit: it has 16:10 aspect ratio
I am not 100% sure it may squish the aspect ratio unless the projector auto-detects a different input like computers can?
@@GeekyNerdyTechy oh okay, maybe it will auto fit the aspect ratio
Would be great to have another video covering the difference between capability difference to the ATEM Mini (pro) when it comes to Logo, PIP, Chroma, Luma, ...
I guess im asking the wrong place but does someone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account..?
I was stupid forgot my account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me
@Ayden Isaiah Instablaster ;)
i want this
I'm taking delivery on the AVMATRIX VS0605U which is the upper model to this one. Would you say this box is noisy?
You hear the fans when you turn it on and then it's pretty quiet.
@@GeekyNerdyTechy Thanks, I'm taking delivery on a AVMATRIX VS0605U on Monday. Pretty excited about it. I'm going to put it on the frontend of my vMix system. That 402 unit has some things like upstream and downstream keyer that even the 6 series doesn't have.
Sir would you suggest me how to record the live events in this switcher. Should I use a external recorder or any option for SD card record in the unit?
Would be helpful
Thanks in advance
The easiest option would be running the unit into OBS (free) and recording that way.
Can it record four video channels on a computer separate from the program output like the Atem mini pro ISO does
To my understanding, the ATEM Mini Pro ISO records to a locally-attached SSD rather than to computer. It can also record to computer?
It seems superior to the atem mini pro... Day by Night Difference!
The B&H link says this item is Discontinued?
It's brand new so maybe they are out of stock or something? Maybe they are awaiting stock possibly? I am not sure.
@@GeekyNerdyTechy I was surprised to see that listing! But it's okay, I checked on Adorama and they have it listed for sale but on pre-order.
I'd really like to know more how the Avmatrix vs. ATEM Mini Pro. The price points are almost the same but which is really the better buy? Thanks!
Whay is the difference btw the 0401 and 0402 ?
HVS0401 is just the simplest video switcher. HVS0402U is more powerful with more layer overlay, 2 PIPs,1 LOGO,1 DSK, 1 background layer,1 Choma key /Luma key. More complete sound mixing function. More powerful media management functions, better and more stable USB output, more convenient control software, and so on.
@@AVMATRIX_PROAV oh thank you very much to reply me i have a last question a would like to start a podcast i've got 2 camera already and a monitor for multiview and i wondering if it was better if i take the HVS0401 or the HVS0402U
@@AVMATRIX_PROAV is this 8bit processing unit? or 10bit?
Can this record internally?
No it can't but the unit I just posted a review of today can.
Can you review the hvs0401 ? Please
Hi there, I'll see what I can do but this is the only one of them I have on hand right now :)
@@GeekyNerdyTechy okay thanks bcs the 0401 Can be an alternative to the atem mini and mini pro for just 300$ i think
Great video Shane! Any chance you could test the usb out of this switcher and input to the usb in on the yolobox? That way we can have 6 hdmi inputs and stream without a laptop.
Because I have both bought for testing I tested to connect the HVS0402U with USB out to the Yolobox USB in. It worked, but I don't checked it for a live stream if it is handled without hiccups.
You left out loading in a logo on usb
That'll happen when there's a million things a device can do.
Awesome review ! Got to know Mini Pro just got a Firmware update which allows any of the normal PC monitors, even 720P to be used as Multiview Monitor with Mini Pro. With this switcher, can a 720p monitor (normal PC HD monitor) be used for Multiview ?
I had this connected to a 31" computer monitor while I was filming and it worked fine :)
Isn't that a chinese copy of the ATEM MINI series. Even All the Buttons looks similar.
On the ATEM mini extreme,can I mix the audio, of two sources like you can in the avmatrix?
It’s an ATEM mini pro wannabe.
A SWITCHER TO PLAY VIDEO? YOU HAVE TO BE VERY IGNORANT AND WITH MONEY, THE LUMIX CAMERA IS VERY GOOD, BUT PUTTING A CAMERA FOR STUDY, WELL IF YOUR BUDGET IS VERY BAD, OTHERWISE A CAMCORDER IS THE PROFESSIONAL WAY TO WORK, BUT IF YOU ARE A TUBER MAKING PODCASTS, EVEN WITH THE PHONE, YOU DON'T EVEN NEED A SWITCHER, BETTER THAT MONEY IS SPENT ON TRIPS AND MAKING REVIEWS OF PLACES WITH YOUR DJI POCKET AND DRON
Your caps lock is on
Hi can you please Review the New AVmatrix shark S6
Hi mate, I don't think I'll be getting any more switchers like this from them until they hit the 4K standard.
@@GeekyNerdyTechy thanks for the feedback, I appreciate
