Audio Mixer

The audio mixer is the audio controller of your entire production.

The audio mixer is useful where there is a need to modify the audio coming from multiple sources to create a clear, solid mix.

The different signals are summed to produce the combined output signal, which can then be broadcast.

Please note that by default, the audio return of your inputs/program is disabled.

Access the Audio Mixer

You can mix up to 12 different audio tracks at the same time and have up to 4 different output buses (up to 4 output languages).

When adding a new input in the Production, a new audio input fader will be added for this input in the audio mixer and the first output bus (P1) will be selected by default.

Create my audio workflow

Assign an input source to an audio fader

Select a specific input audio track (optional)

Select to which output bus this input audio track will be sent (P1 to P4).

Set your output audio track language label (optional)

Audio faders options

A. Mute/Unmute an audio input from the program (or one output bus).

For streaming purposes, by default, all audio inputs and the actual mix for the program are enabled for P1 output bus so that your audience will hear everything that is selected on air if P1 output bus is selected.

B. Enable local audio return on the headphones for this input/output bus.

For monitoring purposes, by default, all audio returns of your inputs and program are disabled so that you, as the operator/producer can choose exactly what you want to listen to.

You can create your own local mix on your local device. On a second device you would need to create another mix.

C. Force the audio return of an input in the program

For streaming and / or monitoring purposes you can add an input to the program, even if its video is not active on the program.

D. Use the L/R Fader/Pan to adjust any irregularity between L and R channel

Audio routing

Audio routing allow you to apply audio option on a specific input audio fader, such as:

Switch left and right channel
Left to Stereo (duplicate left channel to both)
Right to Stereo

How to use the audio routing?

Go to the Audio mixer (1)
If you don't already have an audio fader please add one and assign an input to it.
Select the audio track drop down menu (2) & select "audio routing".
Select the wished audio routing.

You can now publish multiple output bus/languages per publishing destination, depending on if they're supporting multi audio tracks and/or publish each output bus individually to a predefined social media language page.
