    One thing I didn't say in the video is that in OBS when you add the NDI source, you can select "Audio Only" under the Bandwidth option. This hasn't worked very well for me (why I didn't mention it in the video), but go ahead and give it a try. It could mean sending a lot less data over your network.

    This video saved me from finishing off the little hair I have left on my head. I have been working almost nonstop for a week now trying to accomplish getting my audio from Reaper into my livestreaming computer which I use VMIX instead of OBS. I felt like if I could figure out how to get my VMIX desktop capture on my DAW computer to see the output from Reaper then getting it to my livestream computer would be easy, which it was. The Voxengo plugin was my missing piece of software. Once I installed that everything fell into place. So Thank you!!

      I don't believe DVS will work in multiple programs at the same time, you'd need to go to VIA for that. On a deeper issue though, I wouldn't be running Studio One to mix audio and running Pro Presenter on the same computer, you're asking for a hiccup. Those should be single use machines.

    Hello Steven,
    I must say i like your video as it is very informative and has lots of info to learn from. I do have a question though. How can i route my Church's sound board (Behringer Wing) to a DAW then use the DAW's PC audio output to send the sound to our live streaming computer which runs Wirecast 13? For a long time now we have been routing the audio from our board through an AUX send to an interface to feed the audio to our live stream PC but we want to do things much better by routing the audio to a DAW and possibly using the DAW as a seperate mixer for the live stream if that is possible? I appreciate your thoughts.
    Thanks,
    Bernard

    • @BallastMedia
      @BallastMedia  2 года назад

      A couple options, depends on how you are sending audio to the DAW from your Wing. If you are just using USB from the Wing to the DAW, you could route the mixed audio from the DAW back to the Wing, and route that to a physical output of the Wing to send to your stream. If you use Reaper, you could also use ReaStream to send the audio from the DAW over the network to the computer that is streaming (you'd need to install the ReaPlugs pack on that computer and insert the ReaStream plugin in to Wirecast. OR, I think the best way is to use Dante to send channels out from your Wing to the DAW, and then you can use Dante to route mixed audio to your streaming computer.

    • @Bernard-H

    I have a couple of questions. 1st: if your FOH engineer changes the gain level on the console does that make the signal on your broadcast computer louder? 2nd: How do you control the gain coming into your DAW for mixing?

    • @BallastMedia
      @BallastMedia  5 лет назад +1

      Yes, the FOH board has control of gain. With proper gain structure and a proper sound check, you really shouldn't need to change gain much during the show. The DAW technically doesn't have any gain control, although there are several plugins with volume output controls that I'll use to set a different level in the channel if I need something different then what the house is using. But by and large this is a lot less of a problem in practice then you would think.

    • @TylerDickeyMusic
      @TylerDickeyMusic 5 лет назад +1

      Ballast Media I see. I have a FOH guy that doesn’t really understand gain structure and likes to think gain is just another volume knob. It’s very frustrating. Any advice on how to deal with that? I want to implement this system but don’t want this guy to be changing gain all the time and messing up everything on our broadcast

    How do u control the level of sound sent from the console through Dante coming into ur daw so the stems are all at a similar level coming in? Is there a way to adjust this in ur daw or do u do have to do this from your console? It’s just somewhat confusing not using a normal interface to adjust gain for stems from a direct input and our console is a distance from the live stream computer so measuring stems running back and forth doesn’t seem like a practical solution..

Right now I do have a streaming Computer, sent the OBS NDI Output, to the ProPresenter Computer because it has multiple output card on it, so it could help the worship team to see what really happen in the live stream also to help them see the lyric (at the monitor) using a NDI Studio Monitor. My question is, do the NDI audio send from DAW Computer (3rd Computer) to streaming computer would need a lot of bandwidth at it? because I don't want to have a drop frames in OBS. The streaming computer are a laptop with AMD Rayzen 5 with 16GB RAM. By the way I don't use USB output from QU 16 to my streaming computer since I don't find any solution out there to connect it in OBS, so I just take a Aux out from the QU to another Behringer 308 USB Mixer, and works fine, just the not the quality I hope for.

So we are currently going out of the headphone jack of the digiface on the daw into the back of the computer in that tiny 8mm mic input of the live stream. I just ordered a cheap interface for our live stream where the plan is to still go out of the headphone jack , but it will go out of headphone jack via trs, into the interface of live stream with split ts into channels one and two.

      I've found some better ways to route audio on the network since this video, I need to make an updated video about it! Are you on a PC or Mac for your DAW and OBS computer? If you are on a PC, you can install the plugin ReaRoute from Reaper (you don't install Reaper, you go to their website and install their free Reaplugs pack of plugins to get ReaRoute). Then you can use ReaRoute in the DAW and in OBS to transmit the audio over your network between the two machines. (You'll also need to install the ASIO plugin for OBS, as ReaRoute creates an ASIO audio device on your computer to do the routing)

    • @BallastMedia
      @BallastMedia  5 лет назад

      Dante Controller only needs to be installed on one computer to setup and make configuration changes to your Dante network. Once things are configured properly you don't even need to run Dante Controller. You do need some sort of Dante interface on each computer, yes. If you aren't using many channels you can use DVS on the computer mixing, but I've found that adding too many channels that way really taxes the system because the CPU has to process the audio channels coming in through the network port. DVS will work just fine to bring in the stereo mix in to your computer that is streaming.

    I know this is an old video, but I've referenced it several times over the last year. Thanks for the helpful content. Question for you. I'd like to tweak your recommended Dante DAW setup a bit and would appreciate your thoughts. We use a single X32 for FOH and livestream mixing currently, but would like to offload the livestream mixing to a DAW. We currently have the X-USB card in the X32 connecting to a ProPresenter iMac via USB. I'd like use Dante to connect to a DAW in a soundproofed studio about a 100 ft away. Without buying the X-Dante card for the X32, what about installing the Dante Virtual Sound card in both the iMac next to the X32 and the DAW in the remote studio. The audio input path would be something like X32--(USB link)--->iMac---(Dante)--->DAW. The DAW mix return/output path would be, DAW--(Dante)-->iMac--(USB link)-->X32--(XLR out)-->ATEM Video Switcher--(SDI)-->Video Encoder. If this worked, it would be a pretty cheap way of transporting multi-channel audio via Dante. Sorry for the long comment, but appreciate your thoughts! Take care!

      My first thought would be 1.you might run in to latency issues with the additional hop in there and 2. You're going a second level of device to fail and cause an issue. But my 3rd thought is, try it and see if it works!

The Blackmagic has L/R XLR inputs for audio. Do I simply use Voxengo and a D/A converter? Or route the Voxengo output to a camera audio input? or ??? Thanks for the help.

    • @BallastMedia
      @BallastMedia  4 года назад

      Best way over a network is Reaper's built in plugin called Reastream. You'll have to install the Reaper stand alone plugin pack, you can download from their website, on the computer running OBS. Then add the Reastream plugin to the output bus in reaper and set it to transmit, and add the Reastream plugin to any active audio device in OBS and set it to receive.

The audio usb box has a headphone out line. Could we not just run a line from this headphone out and into the computer that is running obs? The computer running obs is a Mac and we do have option to switch its headphone Jack from an output to an input. Is this a bad idea?? Will the quality be diminished doing it this way?
