Yes, using a central control system or software can be one way to achieve this. Central control systems, such as Blackmagic's ATEM Software Control, allow for the configuration and control of multiple inputs and outputs across different M/Es (Mix Effects) from a single interface(here by network communication). By setting up macros or using custom scripting within the control software, you can assign specific actions to different physical keyboards. This setup enables one keyboard to control ME1 while the other controls ME2 simultaneously. Each keyboard can trigger specific macros or commands tailored for its assigned M/E, making it possible to manage complex productions with precision and ease. Additionally, some third-party control software solutions offer even more flexibility and customization for controlling ATEM switchers and might also facilitate this kind of setup
