About

OB kit stands for outside broadcast kit and is essentially a stream machine in a box with wheels. (Minus the cameras and audio desk - but who needs them)

Units

  • OB 2 Skycaster
  • OB 3 C3PO
  • OB 5 Twitch PC
  • OB 6 Studio ATEM

Additional

OB4 was a project started by Will Stirk to mount the atem mini in a small pelli case with a monitor and other quallity of life features but is yet to be finished as of the writing of this sentance (March 2023).

Other units have been scratch built from spares and borrowed kit in the past, much like the temporary computers built for Roses every year. These machines tend not even to have names and are short lived and a bit of a bodge. They normally only come into being for Roses. Also some alumni turn up with an OB unit in their back pocket now and again so that's handy.
