I love mixcloud. For anyone who knows, the UI update was a nice touch from the old interface. They're always improving!
Been on mixcloud for 2 years. Solid platform.
How to upload
I’ve known about mixcloud for awhile but had no reason to stop using SoundCloud and switch to mixcloud. I do now. Thanks for the info
I'm a Pro Creator at Mixcloud so I am glad they are looking out for the DJs who want to stream live. I plan on testing it. Thanks for the video Cleveland Terry.
I purchased the Mixcloud Pro and started using Mixcloud Live function on it this week. Although still in the Beta version, it worked out pretty well. I liked it. There's still bugs of course but it was good to have a set without the worry of being kicked off social media for copyright issues.
the blooper at the end "...digital tech tips"... HAHAHA thanks for sharing brother!
Thank you so much for this! I'm trying to figure out the best methods to stream live content, it's what I miss the most, especially at this time. IG is really not having it right now with live mixing, so I'm diving into the worlds of mixcloud, twitch, etc. So many good tips.
As always, you provide excellent reviews on products for DJs. I have been using Mix Cloud since 2012 and though I don't have a lot a followers there (my focus has been developing my radio station), but I will look at boosting my followers on this platform.
There is a reason I watch these videos until the end. Lol... Thanks for the info CT!
i been using mixcloud since it was created great video chief
First of all.. My english is a little messed up.
I just want to tell you that you have become the man in this quarantine.
Thank you
Thank you for giving us content constantly in this hard time. Helping us setup our livestreams and other things.
We all are without a job. And everyone else is not getting content out that much now.
But you have stepped up your game and in doing so you have helped us all.
Thank you. From Puerto Rico.. Respect.

Love mixcloud, had so many issues with soundcloud so had to move over to them.
Maybe people will actually start using Mixcloud, come onnnnnnnnnnn
Very informative. Thank you so much. Livestreamed 2 times off Facebook and got kicked off each time. Looking forward to trying out mixcloud livestream.
Great video brother!! I have been searching for something like this forever!!! I will sign up today.
Hi what exactly means the eye 👁 icon? Thanks
What does the eye mean? When your live. There is also a head next to it (green)
Love your honesty and straight to the point videos. Excellent channel. Fantastic vids. 👍 ☺ 🙏 🥂
Ok I agree on that one I'll try to work on doing my livestream to as well🎧💻📱🎼
Good look, gonna give it a spin tomorrow night 👍🏾
Use the Phase wireless needles on OBS and keep getting a loud high pitch time code noise. Any ideas as to why? I use Traktor Z2
I’ve had a Mixcloud account for 6 years but it was of no use (really) until now. This is absolutely sensational. I don’t really get on with OBS, I find it very glitchy so opted for Ecamm ‘Live’. My only gripe is once I’ve done an hour, recorded that hour (to video) it won’t share to Mixcloud, You Tube, Facebook etc because it was too long BUT, I see other people uploading 2hr + recordings. Have I missed a setting?
I'VE BEEN USING MIXCLOUD TO UPLOAD MY MIXES FOR YEARS MAN.....I DON'T UPLOAD OFTEN, BUT, I DO HAVE A HANDFUL OF MIXES IN THERE. ON ANOTHER TOKEN, I HAD OVER 100 MIXES UPLOADED AT "MIXCRATE," LOST THEM ALL AS MIXCRATE WAS TAKEN DOWN ABRUPTLY FOR THE SAME REASON TERRY IS EXPLAINING ON THIS VID.
mixcrate been down for 4 years. But yes it was a good site. I dont know how they made any money
Thank you Clevand Terry, just started following you, enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work!
How much do they charge to stream your music, if you get donations could they take a percentage of the money, and if you stream music when do they want their money, weekly, monthly, or when.
I looked at this today, I think its a good 👍 look. I do have a question, when you shared it with your peeps, did they have to sign in to Mixcloud just to view and chat?
Don Clair yes they have to sign up to chat with you...
I'm excited to give it a go! I must learn OBS.
I just discovered Mixcloud Live today as I was looking for any place that would let me stream since I’m so frustrated with the Facebooks and IGs and Twitches of the world. What’re your thoughts now about MXCL 10 months later? I signed up for a free trail and I will dive in tomorrow. It looks a bit daunting but I’ll figure it out. Do I need an external webcam if I want to stream video?
so glad I already got a small following on Mixcloud, im exited about this, also heard it will save your audio and upload as a mix after you stream? That would be 2 jobs in one. ill be keeping an eye on this for sure. Thanks Cleveland
Works well with Virtual DJ, as long as you dedicate it entirely to broadcasting the stream, otherwise you get messages flashing up,saying BROADCAST CANNOT KEEP UP - if you are running stuff like track analysis or stems, that comes up!
I have a stupid question, can I use my iPhone to stream on Mixcloud?
Can you do a review on Go:Livecast streaming studio?
can you have 320k sound with the video stream? thats one of the things i hate about facebook live not being able to
It's now November 22... Where are we now with streaming as far as free/fee platforms and legalities with copyright issues???
I have been streaming on Mixcloud this past 2 weeks and I really enjoy djing for 6 or 8 straight hours without interruptions. IT IS WORTH IT! my viewer based was way higher than on facebook.
QUESTION: "I am running Serato, Serato Video, Camera, OBS and streaming to Mixcloud, all from the same laptop and I see my CPU usage goes quite high so, Do you recommend using 2 laptops for this or have you tweaked the computers so the stream can be smooth?" thanks for replying..
I have seen videos where they suggest using 1 laptop for djing and 1 for streaming. Another video suggests the Mixemergency instead Serato Video supposedly because Serato Video uses too much CPU and the other one is less agressive, your thought on that?
Excited about this. Can one pre-record and schedule on obs?
No, because I’m it’s current state, you have to tell Mixcloud to go live and the key is not persistent (it changes every time ) It won’t just start like on RUclips or Facebook or twitch.
@@ClevelandTerry Thanks man. Then maybe using "One Stream" would be better?
Terry thank you for this video, fans can view the live through the app?
Yes
I'm currently looking for ways to live stream other than using Facebook. I'm curious how I would utilize OBS if I'm using Serato on my laptop. Would I need to switch windows on the screen while playing? Do I need a additional PC? Can someone give me some advice? Thanks!
DAMMMMM i am researching this .....just found this and Im joining Cleveland brah......thanks again
Welcome
Funny how this just came up now. I was thinking earlier this week it would be great if you tuba Facebook have a $50 a year plan that will let you stream
That was my thought. Set up royalties. Seems easier and better than tagging and removing copyrighted material and it also keeps people on their platform. I'd pay it.
hi, can we actually pay for not to be kicked out? do you have a link please? thank you
@@abraxasdj Mixcloud is legal and costs $15 per month. They had a 3 month free trial, not sure if that's still around.
awesome job as always. do you know if people have to create a mixcloud account in order to make comments? or can you just share the link with them and they can just comment? geez i was thinking they'd have to comment on FB while running the stream in Mixcloud Live. also love the blooper at the end
How can I use rekordbox video through obs to stream music videos over mix cloud live?
Do the videos get recorded and available in youre libary for people to watch later?
Not yet because it’s still in beta but it’s coming.
Thank you so much Cleveland Terry i appreciate your insite on this new streaming service for Dj this is awesome man thx!
Recently subscribed 👍 great to find your channel . Great info and nice bloke 👍👍👍
ok now that i have switched from O.B.S which didnt work to Streamlabs O.B.S that after a short test appears to work i might look into Mixcloud once more.
Where is the live section....???? I started it, and cannot find the Go live section, it sucks i am interested in program but ......what i am seeing on your broadcast i has not found it...?????
Did you sign up for the premium service? It’s free for the months.
What is the link i cant find it
thanks for your tips !!!
Cleveland Terry: Hit the 'Go Live' and you are active! Everybody's seeing it.
Also Cleveland Terry: ...Except, NOBODY is seeing you right now... 😂😂 😂
I checked via the app the day you went live and could only see the existing mixes
Hey CV great tutorials :) if you stream via mixcloud is there a way to restream to FB and IG and not get kicked out? Is the only way to not get kicked out is to share the link to mixcloud?
There are no hard fast rule. Assume IG will kick you out before Facebook but with reatream you can just restart it with a click.
@@ClevelandTerry I am using mixcloud right, which is now copyright free, so how can I restream my mix to other social networks like FB and not get kicked out for copyright?
Oh, I see. Nope different rules for each social platform. You’ll still get kicked out of anything Facebook owned.
@@ClevelandTerry I hear you, so best thing is to just share the link to the mixcloud on FB. Listeners will come to mixcloud to see and hear you, but no chat right?
They can chat on Mixcloud from the browser. Just not from within the app yet.
I'm using an earlier version of OBS for Yosemite. OBS is working fine--a nanosecond lag, if that. But when I got to the preview pane in Mixcloud, there's a 15-second lag. (I timed it.) And when I go to broadcast it, there's nothing--just a blue box that says "loading," or something to that effect, and nothing ever loads. The support from Mixcloud isn't the greatest--they say to be sure I have the right settings. I used OBS' auto-configuration wizard to set it all up. Anyone have any insight? Thank you!
First, there’s always a lag, on any platform you use. Second when you start Mixcloud, do you start the stream in OBS also? Sometimes it does take a while to load.
@@ClevelandTerry Thanks for replying, Terry. I start the stream in OBS as instructed before going back to the Mixcloud window. The preview pane has a 15-second lag, and then when I push to go live, there's nothing. Just a blue screen and some empty promise of something supposedly starting soon. (Lol.) But I'll wait 5, 10 minutes...Nothing.
@@HerbertHollerDJ Wait, so you never see your stream before you press the Go Live in Mixcloud?
@@ClevelandTerry I do. I see it in the Mixcloud preview, with a 15-second lag. I'll press "Go," and...nothing. Just blue.
Has someone noticed a timelimit to mixcloud? Last night it cut my livestream after 90min... Maybe an OBS issue?
You can actually have a notification post on all your socials through Re-Stream. You can "activate" it to post
on Facebook and Twitter (didn't see IG). You can type in what you want it to say on your post.
Yes i know. The issue is you can’t bring all your comments into the restream chat bot. And IG doesn’t work at all, without backdoor apps.
@@ClevelandTerry When are we going to hear you get on the tables and rip them up? LOL! Love your videos bro!
@@djjohnnyvlive I DJ on twitch all the time. I'm on mixcloud too but not as much because of the extra steps needed to get on.
I did some research on this it looks good, if they allow you to embed to websites then I'm all in, but still might give them a trial just see how things workout.
Hey guys try...Mixlr.... it's has a custom build software....it has a free version. You can live stream on Mixlr and put the link on social media like Facebook for your fans to follow you and join Mixlr. It also has chat box where you can interact with your listeners and see how many people are listening.
Mixcloud super solid plus with the select im one of many has this badge
DOes mixcloud allow you to re-play your stream?
Not yet. It’s still in beta.
Thanks Cleveland Terry
I would just like to say that chew.tv was the first legal live stream platform that was set up for dj's and did not sensor what was played also chew archived the videos to allow you to embed them in social media or on your website, now when mixcloud gets to that point it will be perfect until then not so much.
Good to know!
@@ClevelandTerry Thank you for this information, I have signed up on chew.tv and from what I see, you can use Virtual DJ (No need for OBS).
I agree with kathyrynw3...I used Chew.tv for about 5 years until Bandlab absorbed it...It is what I envision Mixcloud becoming ...lets hope they (mixcloud) will make the $$$ to take it to the next level...but being legal is 100% the main issue, everything else can be improved.
Hey Cleveland, how do you deal with serato freezing while streaming?
I use a secondary computer for OBS.
Cleveland Terry thanks for responding, unfortunately it’s not an option to go out and buy another computer. Is there anything else I’m overlooking that can help resolve this? Thanks again for responding.
Rashidi Lipson Your computer only has so much processing power. The only option is to push the lowest resolution on OBS which includes the camera and avoid a lot of additional movement on your vids. Btw, what computer are you using?
Cleveland Terry Okay, I’ll give that a try. I’m using a 2015 MacBook Pro. It has a 500GB SSD (66% free), 16GB ram, 2.8GHz processor. Were you referring to the output resolution or the video bitrate?
what about the delay once you're streaming? i have a 20 sec delay between what i'm doing and what's been broadcasted through mixcloud. Any idea how to solve this problem?
Get a super fas internet. It’s the nature of streaming. There will always be a delay.
@@ClevelandTerry thx for the intel :) but such a delay is way to long.
coekieman I don’t understand. Why does it matter if there’s a delay? It’s not your using the stream as a monitor. Isn’t the DJing the most important part?
@@ClevelandTerry you're absolutely right. Wasn't thinking cleary this early morning for me in Europe :)
Excellent video as per usual bro
Can you do a tutorial on how Mixcloud pays DJs for Select subscribers?
ok the first O.B.S i tried didnt work .I did a test of Streamlabs O.B.S and it worked fine and now i have that i will look at Mixcloud as a possible alternative to the ever restrictive and punitive youtube
Danielle King agreed.
@@ClevelandTerry an update on My Streaming on Streamlabs O.B.S.I did a longer stream of over half an hour and the music was ok but the video had freezing here and there.It might be that i need to connect with the router via etherent to get a better stream.My computer handled Serato and Streamlabs O.B.S. without any crunching noises but before i could start i had a server stream key issue again and i had to put the stream key in by typing the thing into Streamlabs O.B.S..So this went better as i was able to broadcast but i do hope i dont have to type my stream key out every time i want to stream.
@@DanielleKingdjdinosaur yes you need to use ethernet cable, not wifi. You also need to get your flatmates/family to not use the internet at the same time (change password while using it/unplug their cables?). You need to know how much upload speed your internet has. Ideally 10-20mbps but minimum 5mbps. You can also just reduce the quality by making smaller resolution *720/480p* and/or lower bitrate.. 2000-2500 should be enough for small camera and audio, but higher does look better. But you don't need it for DJing, it's about the music not the video.
Nice first name my name is Cleveland too👍🏿
Hey this is DJLYONHEART... I just realized you can also STREAM directly from Virtual DJ too... instead of OBS
Yes you can.
Hey DJ Lyonheart and Cleveland Terry can you PLEASE help me? I've subscribed to mix cloud PRO and trying to live broadcast from my virtual dj 8 pro also. It's very glitchy and pauses every 10 seconds and not smooth at all. Meanwhile I can broadcast superb on Facebook and RUclips and it's flawless and looks n sounds Nice! What am I doing wrong in mixcloud? Is there just too many users now? Do I need to adjust settings or get OBS? I like that I can broadcast from VDJ any pointers would be greatly appreciated !
I don’t use vdj streaming. I use OBS.
Mixcloud as a platform, it's much better made than Soundcloud. But people aren't there. It's actually something like Facebook vs Google+... Google+ was better coded, but all people were on Facebook. In Europe, we know Mixcloud for years. It just never really attracted the listeners. I hope now that will change.
Can your Facebook friends see the stream if they are not Mixcloud users?
It currently points to a browser so I don’t think you need a Mixcloud account.
I believe the link to share will remain the same ( mixcloud.com/live/*ProfileNAME* ). You can tell users when you are broadcasting and send the link anytime. Only the stream key will change. I want to know who else got a major lag or buffer. I had a 20-25 second delay on everything. I had to click the "Play" and "Pause" icons on the Mixcloud page a few times to get the stream to work. It was frozen at first It worked great after I toggled a few times....but still had the delay.
Cory Evans correct, the url should not change.
I had the delay too. It's still a beta sooo we have to be patient with Mixcloud x)
There will always be a delay, just how long will be the issue.
@@ClevelandTerry Yeah hopefully it will improve. FB is about 2-3 seconds. I can get used to this, but I have to monitor a little different
so you can go on Mix cloud to live stream
Cleveland Terry : Live mixes in Mixcloud are not avaliable for see them later , not interesting for the moment
I didn’t say they were available later. But it’s in beta, give it a moment.
Can't wait to try this! Thanks for the info!
streams audio an video or only audio? let me know, thanx!
I really wish there was a way to embed it into facebook. It's really hard to move people from facebook over to any other platform. Not only because people don't click through but because facebook's algorithm buries anything that directs you off of their platform.
As always great info. Thanks bro
I loved using mixcloud but stopped, as my fanbase is not on mixcloud so I get bare views, that’s why I stuck to youtube and instagram as my friends are there, sadly not on mixcloud.
Tried this mixcloud streaming service, but it still is very, very buggy. It has great potential, don't get me wrong. But it just isn't where it should be yet.
Try ( hearthis.at ) they are really good too. Otherwise thanks for the videos, we learning lots.
Mixcloud is cool but they charge people to activate the REWIND BUTTON. It’s the Coby Walkman of streaming websites
Ha! Great analogy.
Wow Amazing have to check that out
Good info bruh! Appreciate you
Nice review 👍🏾🍻
I forgot to mention that bandlab took over the chew.tv platform and they do live streaming on their website just like mixcloud but they have had theirs in place for over a year and it's free.
Funny, that's where I found it first too lol.
Awesome Video!!
Thanks for the info Bro.
Good and informative video once again
Glad you liked it
Workings with GOPro 7 straight away also :)
Derrick Crayton dope!
Periscope is still the champ. This is very promising
but you can’t make any money off of periscope.
@@ClevelandTerry that is true, the percentage of DJ's who will make money that they can really be happy about is gonna be slim.
@@ClevelandTerry I KNOW A FEW BEDROOM DJ'S THEY WON'T GIVE A RAT HOLE ABOUT EARNING, THEY JUST WANT TO BE OUT THERE SO PEOPLE CAN SEE AND HEAR THEIR MIXES, AS LONG THEY GET POSITIVE PROPS, THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE....AND THAT IS A FACT.
Why are you yelling at me?
Cleveland Terry the caps right.
Why don't they just have a simple go live button instead of all the technicality
Because it’s still in beta.
So what's you guys current assessment of the Mixcloud Live platform since the recording of this video??
Nothing has changed. Still needs work.
@@ClevelandTerry 👍🏽
Thanks Cleveland!
Nice this is what we needed
I love mixcloud!!!
Terry the man!
The only thing is that mixcloud doesn't let you rewind songs in the US. because of their license.
Ernesto Avilez good to know.
Facts unless you have pro. Also if you do a mix with one artist it will block your mix.
Once again 👍🏿👍🏿!
YIKES!!!
