If you are like me you have been anticipating returning to your normal venue, but not all of your sound techs are returning to serve. You need to find a way to make a mix that works for your room, but also offers a mix that will work for your stream. In this video I walk through all of the steps to setup a post-fader mix on a stereo AUX Bus that sounds great and could be just the information you need to transform your live stream experience this weekend.

@allamhouse help. My audio goes out on my console 15.16 and that's where the audio is patched. How do I get just the live mix to go to the usb at the back instead of the entire post fade mix. Help
Another great video. Thanks! Good take on setting the room space for the stream mix with a verb/verb + delay combo. I like it!
Thanks for all the work you do on your videos. They have really helped enhance our live stream audio quality.
Hey Dave, thanks again for this in depth video. Again, this was exactly what I needed for church. You got the heart of the teacher man.
Another well done video. Thank you for taking the time to lay this out!!! That song sounds fantastic as well! would love to hear all of it!!!
Thanks for the encouragement.
DUDE.... YESS!! Ty so much for this in-depth tutorial! I am in the process of bringing together my X32 rack mount and ATEM Mini; this totally gives me some direction. Currently running X32 audio out of Aux 6 into the ATEM, , but I have Ableton live on another computer (coming into X32) and would prefer to run everything off 1 computer. Can’t wait to work on it tmrw. Cheers!
This is the by faaarr best Tutorial i ve seen in YT yet. Well organized well explained!!! Thanks a LOTTTTTTT!!!!
Thanks for the encouragement.
Thank you for the detailed tutorial. I learned so much from this. We recently started a live stream and I’ve been struggling mixing front of house and stream. I plan to put this to use and hopefully increase the quality of our production.
This will make your role so much easier going forward.
Dude, your videos have really, REALLY helped us to up our game. Our livestream has been sounding better and better. We're just playing around and tweaking settings, fine-tuning for our set up. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you for spending the time to teach this. It is invaluable.
Glad it is helpful.
This is the only tutorial that actually gave me the info I needed! 10/10 great job!
Thanks for the encouragement.
This tutorial was the missing link to my church livestream mix. Implemented in service today with the exact same settings and the outcome is on point. Thanks a lot
Thanks for the encouragement. I’m glad you found it helpful.
i watches this video more than 10 times. Everytime i learned smthing new. This video is so compact of lot of tricks hand tipps. Thanks again ang again!!!
Thanks for the encouragement.
All I can say is...WOW!!! That video was exactly what I've been searching for. Thank you sooooo much. I was already using a MixBus to send out to our ATEM Mini Pro, but you helped so much with how I can EQ and set limiters on my external recording mix. Thanks again, and God bless!!
Awesome. Glad it was helpful.
Very good video. Thank you for doing it. Super helpful to novice engineers and “de facto sound guys” like myself.
Dave thank you so much for all of your videos and especially for this one. I e been trying to clean up my live stream for our church. I’ve always been a strong advocate for streaming pre fade in an effort to have more control over the stream. But I really listened to this video and I’ll tell you I’m doing less work with just getting a good mix and making small adjustments to the house and allowing the stream mix to follow that. Blessings to you my friend and Happy New Year.
Happy New Year. Thanks for the encouragement.
Great job Dave, appreciate the information and quality detail.
Thanks for the encouragement.
Great video! This completely changed my stream mix. We use Switcher studio for our video stream, between this mix setup and being able to connect the x32 directly to the iPad via a USB-B to lightning cable its made a night and day difference. Thanks!!
Glad it is working.
Glad I found your channel. Feel like I learned a semester's worth of material!
Thanks for the encouragement. Let me know if you have any questions.
What a blessing. I'm trying to set up a scene from scratch for the first time after using a pre-set scene for several years. It is so different managing a system, while still understanding it, versus doing it all yourself from the ground up. You have been instrumental in helping me accomplish a years long goal. Thank you!
Thanks for the encouragement. I’m glad you’ve found the videos helpful. Feel free to post any questions you might have along your way.
Pierwszy film szkoleniowy, który krok po kroku wytłumaczył mi jak ustawić parametry pod "live stream". Bardzo dziękuję. Świetna robota 👍
Thanks for the encouragement. If you need to route this out USB, this video here is the companion that walks you through that setup. ua-cam.com/video/Vx4HjArTeZI/v-deo.html
Dave, Superlative content and production. I set up the X32 according to your videos. Everything works now. I can't thank you enough for your efforts.
Thanks for the encouragement. I’m glad it helped you get all setup. If you want to see the full details of my scene, I have a playlist here that goes through the different groups and you might find them helpful. ua-cam.com/play/PLsW5UVUiB1ry8bnPJ5q8fR93KHW2TPKpg.html
@@AllamHouse I'll check them out. Thanks for the heads-up.
Every part of this video was useful. Thank you so much for making these videos, they have been very helpful
Thanks for the encouragement.
This is such a great explanation of the FX. Thank you!
I’m glad it was helpful.
@@AllamHouse I think this is still the best advice out there. The extra settings, FX, etc., work perfectly. Two years with no problems!
Thank you so much. We have an X32 compact and are struggling to get a good live stream mix for the very reason you mentioned. We have one engineer trying to mix FOH and Live Stream. Since the focus is on the house, the live stream is struggling. This video is very helpful!
Thanks for the encouragement. Keep trying, keep evaluating, keep learning, keep getting better. You can do it.
Thanks for your patience and explanation. This will help for my XR18
Thanks alot
Hi Dave, we were just trying to figure out stereo bus on the X32. Thanks!
Thank you so much, was having problems with making the bass guitar and live mix present. This will help much.
I’m glad it was helpful.
I watched a lot of tutorials with this Board and pretty much understand but in this presentation you simply THE BEST! The way when you do "QUICK RECAP" where you review what you did is GENIUS! I can say even someone who is new in this field will understand and can follow through your teachings.
Wow, thanks for the amazing feedback. Let me know if you have any other questions. If you want to see one final change I've made feel free to check out this video. ua-cam.com/video/9abR8wv4a9c/v-deo.html
Thanks so much--this is very helpful! We just got an X32, and it's sitting in my living room while I set it up as much as I can before installing in my church tomorrow. I'm following your settings here for getting the livestream mix. The panning part was especially useful, as we have a single line array that's not in stereo, so from your video I learned how to pan everything for the livestream mix independently of the house. Thanks!
That’s awesome. You’re gonna enjoy the console. Be sure to ask questions as I’m happy to help.
@@AllamHouse Thanks Dave, I appreciate your help! We have a mono setup in our church that consists of a single line-array of speakers with some subs. We have an external processor that does all the crossover and delays for the speakers. I set up our main LR mix to be summed to mono in a matrix bus and outputed to Ch 16 for the main mix, and I set up a link pair of buses post-fader as you described for one sound tech managing house mix and livestream. We have a few instruments going into the system in mono (acoustic guitar, electric guitar, piano) that we'd like stereo in the livestream. I set these up as adjacent inputs (acoustic L, acoustic R), and I will change the input source to be the same for both channels. The pan is set differently for each of the channels, and we will set EQ to be a little different in each channel. My understanding is that one channel should be delayed slightly (14 ms or so?). What's the best way to do this? Would this be okay if both channels (acoustic L and R) are going to the main mix that'll get summed to mono for the house speakers, or should we mute one of the channels for the house speakers? Thanks again for your help!
You sir have taken the mix to the next level... quite impressive. In your scenario, when doubling up on a mono input and doing the 'delay trick', I would only send the mono signal to the house (mono mix) and then send both signals, properly panned to the stream mix (stereo mix). Because the same performance is being doubled, there is not enough differentiation for the mono mix to process it well and it will generally just create a muddy sound. I also do this for my monitors. My IEM's are mono so I tell everyone to only use the first acoustic channel so they get an accurate tempo in their head.
Hey Allam, thanks for your video, they are really helpful. God bless you!
Incredibly helpful! Testing it out tomorrow!
That’s great. Thanks for the feedback.
This was an EPIC tutorial @AllamHouse. Thank you a gazillion times.
I’m glad it was useful.
This is the best turorial about x32 set up for live streaming. Thank you very much from Indonesia. God bless u...
Thanks for the encouragement.
Thanks for the video. Had always wondered how to just have the stream through the headphones to monitor. Looks like got alot of setting up to do because noticed was quiet but the limiter setting has probably answered my question.. God bless and thank you for your video again
Here is a different video I made to help address the Low Volume concerns on our streams
ua-cam.com/video/-RjP3IKFfqM/v-deo.html
Thanks for the video. I’m definitely going to have to try the limiter.
Thxs for all the information, learned a lot of the effects for the stream.
Thanks for the encouragement.
This was AWESOME... I am tech director at a a small church that is dealing with just this problem! We consulted with a larger church in our area and were encouraged to look into the X32 and a Dante card to run a separate mix. What I like about your video is that it does a good dive into what an X32 can do if you know what you're doing. Gives us much to consider (and keep researching). Thanks!!
This is great, thanks for the encouragement. This console really is amazing for the price point. Dante is nice and can offer many great opportunities as your needs and team grow. If you are like my church you only have one qualified technician to mix on any given Sunday so moving to Dante to use a DAW or additional board still requires additional volunteers which we don’t have. There are a few solutions (this setup being one of them) to help get a solid mix for your stream without needing ore volunteers. Let me know if you have additional questions... I’m happy to help.
What part did I like best?… All of it!!! Most helpful. Thank you so much. The Lord bless you indeed!
Wow, thanks for the encouragement. Let me know if you have other questions.
So so many thank bro ! it still working ! wish you so much happy in life
I’m glad you found it helpful. Let me know if you have other questions.
You have no idea how much you have helped me. I watched about 12 of your videos. I can’t lie my brain is fried. My church is finally making the transition to a digital board. I’m the one that handles the live streams. So I’m pretty much the only engineer. Thank you so much for taking your time to make these videos. God bless you abundantly.
Thanks for the encouragement. I’m glad you have found the videos helpful.
YES!!!! This is such an informative video!! Whoever set up our stream mix just put an output from the monitor jack to the stream system which just reflects what the house is doing. The broadcast is inconsistent and sometimes they turn the house up too loud which blows the stream out. Terrible! Someone mentioned there should be a way to make a separate mix for the stream.....and so I'm here! Now I can't wait to go mess with the board! (I'm not the sound person, I'm just the one who takes the time to figure this stuff out and learn what I'm doing lol)
Awesome. I’m glad you found the video helpful. Feel free to come back with questions.
The whole video was so helpful for my church thank you very much God bless you
Thanks for the encouragement.
Sir you're a Hero, thanks so much for that, I'll see all your videos.
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for the encouragement.
I was looking at another board, the new Allen and Heath Cq series, and I am gona stick with the Behringer or the Midas. I just loved your in depth easy to follow style of demonstrating how to set this up. Going from analog boards to digital, it is a different setup process, so I am super grateful for this
Thanks for the feedback and I do think there is more support out here for the Behringer/Midas ecosystem. Let me know if you have other questions and I can point you to quality resources.
Well explained, exactly what i needed. Thank you very much
Glad it helped!
Very detailed! Thank you so much.
Thanks for the encouragement.
A year later appreciating the knowledge thank you sir
Thanks for the encouragement. Let me know if you have any questions.
Fantastic tutorial, many thanks for making it so clear to us :)
Thanks for the encouragement. I'm glad it was helpful.
I settled for a mono mix for my live stream thinking I cannot pan the instruments to the mix busses. Thank you!
Glad this video helped.
Everything was helpful. Thank much !
Thanks for the feedback. Let me know if you have other questions.
Am just gonna start using one of these mixer so this was very helpful
Awesome. I’m glad you found it helpful.
Thx!!! super useful Greetings from Ecuador
Thanks for the encouragement.
This was VERY helpful, thank you
I’m glad it was helpful.
Hey, thanks for this amazing and helpful video! I would have loved to not only see the changes you made but also hear it or a “before and after” comparison, so that we can have a clearer imagination. Nevertheless this video is the answer to some problems I’m facing! Thx a lot.
Much love from Germany🙏🏾🖤
If you want to dive-in deep to my settings, I have a playlist that has videos breaking down all of the settings I use. It is multiple videos (overview, drums, band, vocals, etc) and goes through with audio examples of each effect, EQ and Comp. Check it out here. ua-cam.com/play/PLsW5UVUiB1ry8bnPJ5q8fR93KHW2TPKpg.html&si=bd3civGcjtvzZuLe
Thanks, glad I found this. Btw, “Dana” led me to this link. Cheers!
I’m glad you found it helpful.
When and how to put the limiter was exactly what I was searching for all the afternoon.
Big thanks and greetings from switzerland
I’m glad it was helpful.
Great video! Just a thought, since you're using that limiter on your live stream mix, try setting the bus compressor to 1 1/2 to 1 with 100 ms attack time and threshold set to pull 6db at Max. It will smooth out what gets sent to the limiter and make your mix even fuller.
Thanks. I’ll give it a shot next time I’m up to mix and see how it reacts.
Loved it! Super helpful!
Thanks for the encouragement.
thank you very much for this
Great Video! Thank you!
Thanks for the encouragement. Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks very much your tutorial was very helpful
I’m glad it was helpful. Let me know if you have any questions.
Great tutorial. Very specific. THX
Thanks for the encouragement.
Thank You AGAIN !! I don't mean to be a nag. But now you gave me pretty much all I have questions for. I know I'll be watching it over and over again to catch some things I might have missed. But Yes. It does answer what I need.
I'm glad you are on the right path. Let me know when other questions come up.
@@AllamHouse I wasn't planning on needing any help this quick. And really doesn't have anything to do with the Live stream. BUT.. We just made the jump from floor monitors to earbuds. In the must part it's going ok. Still needs a little tweaking. But the problem is, Our Pastor has never been on his own monitor. I just mixed him into the floors, and not that much. So now he's just on the Mains, BUT he's not coming out of mains ANY MORE !! He's coming across the Live stream fine. I can't figure it out ??
My guess is you removed him from the Main LR Bus. Just select the pastor channel, and go to the left of the screen and find the button that says "Main LR BUS" and make sure it is lit up orange. This is the magic button to get the audio back into the main mix.
@@AllamHouse and again. You were right on. I don't even remember turning it off. But, AGAIN Thank You. Didn't you, at one time send me a link/page that I could send you questions without tying up the UA-cam posts ?? May be easier then filling this up. Unless you think that what we talk about may help others. I'm open for either
The comment section is ok, but I don't know how deep people go hunting through conversations. You can always reach me outside of YT by filling out the contact card on my website. sound.allamhouse.com
Good video. Didn't have time to watch the whole thing so you may have suggested this but may i suggest that instead of using a mix buss to you web stream, to use busses to matrix. Use your busses for grouping instruments, and then send those to matrices to your outputs. Use 1 stereo pair for you house and another pair for your web stream so that way you maximize your busses. Then mix off your dca's so that when you make your mix level changes on your dca, you are making relational changes to all you mixes in one shot. This also frees up your stereo buss as another "matrix". I do this in all my mixing, but especially in my corporate events. May have to send a web stream, a house mix, a center fill, delays, record feed. By using good gain structure and good room tuning, you'll be able to get balance mixes to all points very quickly. Happy mixing.
Yeah, Matrix is a different approach and does provide great results. I have another video that covers setting up a matrix for your stream, but this specific video is the method my team uses in our church. I use buses in a different way and plan to go through my approach in an upcoming video. Thanks for the comment.
good job, allam. i've learned a lot with this video. thank \o/
Thanks for the encouragement.
Very well done!
Thanks for the encouragement.
Thank you so much for this...
I'm glad you found this video helpful. Let me know if you have any questions or need help with other parts of your setup.
Huge help - thank you
Thanks for the encouragement.
Very helpful! Thanks a lot!
Thanks for the encouragement.
istimewa sekali mas, tutorial yang sangat membantu
Based on Google Translate, it seems like you found the video helpful. Thanks for the feedback.
Great explanation.
Thanks for the feedback
great video. another way is to buy an inexpensive stereo audio interface. Behringer makes one for around a hundred bucks. Send your aux outs to it then usb, either straight to your streaming computer or switcher. Also has a zero latency headphone out so you can have a set of cans plug into it and monitor it that way.
You are exactly right. I love this stuff because there are so many ways to get things done, just have to find what works for tour environment.
Thank you for your video. We will try to implement it. I have been looking for this kind of video because in our streaming video to FB and UA-cam we can NOT hear the effects we give to the singers. We do not have a band in our church so our music is very simple. We only want to hear the effects on singer's mic we put on the house mix to our streaming mix. We use Bus 7 but it is not stereo therefore I learned from this video. I learned a lot of things from your videos. I am trying to watch them all because your explanations are simple.
Thanks for the encouragement. I'm glad you are finding value and learning from the videos. If you come up with other questions feel free to post them in the comments and I'm happy to answer and/or make a video out of the answer.
Was able to start messing around with this setup today after service.
That’s awesome. Good luck with the setup, let me know if you have questions.
Thank you so much!!
I’m glad it was helpful.
Dave, God has truly blessed me to find out about your channel!
This is just what I needed. I've gained more from you than I have the last 6 years in school. I just graduated last April with a BS in Digital Audio Technology but no one taught us Live Sound. Do you have any tutorials for getting the best sound in house from the Pastors mic. I use a DPA headset with IEM. And Sennheiser wireless transmitter and reciever. When he sings there is so much distortion
Thanks for the encouragement, I'm glad you are learning. It sounds like the gain is too high in general. It is probably fine when he is speaking, but when he is singing it jumps up into digital clipping. Do a soundcheck with him and set his gain to -10 (on the meter) when he is singing. This will make his speaking seem a little soft, but you can use compression to not only control his overall volume, but raise his speaking parts. You might find you want to use a second compressor inserted like I do for my singing vocals. Stacking compressors allows you to not overuse one compressor, but let each one work a little and it makes everything sound natural. This video here runs through my vocal settings in depth on my pastors mic and my other vocal mics as well. ua-cam.com/video/E5xyJXaliMg/v-deo.html
thanks alot great advice keep it coming
Thanks for the encouragement.
@@AllamHouse youre welcome. i just got an x32 rack so ill be checking out a lot of your videos.
Superb.
I’m glad you found it helpful. Let me know if you have questions.
Great tutorial! I Just wanted to note that my x32 is on version 3.12 and I was still able to do all of this.
Yes, you can do it on the older version, but the custom routing that many people do to send this out USB is not capable on firmware older than 4.0. This video explains how to do this to route out USB and into a streaming device. ua-cam.com/video/Vx4HjArTeZI/v-deo.html
@@AllamHouse oh! Okay, I don't send audio to our livestream via USB so that is why I am confused haha.
How do you have it connected at this time?
@@AllamHouse I have the stereo mix bus going to a pair of aux outputs and into our video switcher.
owasome brother...thankx a lot...
I’m glad this was helpful. Let me know if you have other questions.
Love the song
Thanks for the encouragement.
Great video! At 29:10 you mention the need to be careful not to accidentally touch the mix bus faders for your stream. This is especially important in order to avoid clipping the stream, since the limiter is inserted pre-fader. It would be nice to insert the limiter post-fader (so if you raise the fader, it just pushes into the limiter, instead of raising post-limiter and clipping your stream) but unfortunately I don't think that's possible; it seems like the only choices for insert position are pre-EQ and post-EQ, not post-fader -- and of course you'll almost certainly want post-EQ. The only 2 workarounds I know of are:
1. Change the output tap to pre-fader instead of the typical post-fader tap. That way, you know that the limiter (or compressor @ 100:1, if you want to avoid using up an FX slot) is absolutely the last thing before the physical output, and therefore you'll never accidentally clip the stream since there's no fader to accidentally push.
2. Run the fader at +10 instead of unity, again so that there's no chance of accidentally pushing it up. In this case, adjust the output gain of the limiter by -10 to compensate (to -11dB in your case). If using the compressor as a limiter, unfortunately the output gain doesn't go below zero, so set the threshold 10dB lower to compensate (and then adjust all channel sends by -10 as well, which makes them harder to use given the log scale). The only benefit over option 1 is if you want to "fade out" your stream using this fader; otherwise it's kind of pointless.
But it would be super cool to make use of the fader in a pre-insert (or pre-compressor) manner, so that you can ride it as the program levels vary! Any ideas? An assignable knob (or MIDI controller) could be used to ride the input gain of the limiter, if it doesn't inflict zipper noise, but adjusting into the mastering compressor would be even better.
Yes, I actually do something like this now where I send my MixBUS to a Stereo Matrix which has the limiter on it and is setup as Pre Fader to not be susceptible to the fader movement. Here is the video that discusses that setup. ua-cam.com/video/9abR8wv4a9c/v-deo.html
@@AllamHouse Brilliant! Have the output tapping the matrix pre-fader to ensure no accidental gain after the limiter, while keeping the bus fader to help ride the mix into the mastering chain (and fade out at the end of broadcast). 👍
For your need to ride the volume during an event you could assign a DCA to the MixBUS for volume control or you could use on e of the knobs in the assignable section to control that volume as well (if your DCAs are all used up).
thank you so much.
I’m glad it was helpful
Thx Allam,
God bless
I'm glad you found the video helpful. If you need to find a way to route this mix out of your console, here is a video that covers the three options you might consider. ua-cam.com/video/xGt1z5I7blQ/v-deo.html
Great tutorial as always! How would I go about routing just the MixBus I am using for livestream to the USB card? I have look at a lot of videos but still have not been able to figure it out. Thanks for the Fxs answer you gave me. Thanks to you I was able to fix it.
This. Idea is the companion and covers the routing for sending the stream out the X-USB card to your computer. ua-cam.com/video/Vx4HjArTeZI/v-deo.html
Great Video! Will you please do a supplemental video showing us your OBS settings?
I can, but it is a very simple setup. Our cameras and audio go into a Blackmagic (BM) video switcher. This goes across an AJA-Utap device to convert SDI->USB. OBS has the BM device setup as an audio input and a video input. The only additional thing we have is our lower -third lyrics coming across NDI from Pro7 into OBS as well.
toma tu like, si me funciono, gracias!
I’m glad you found this video helpful.
You sound and remind me like Dallas Jenkins, creator and director of The Chosen series!
I'll take it. He's a pretty impressive guy.
Thanks so much for sharing this, it’s really a great blessing to us. When we use the effect 1 & 2 for room reverb & delay +chamber on the exclusively for live-streaming . What effect would you recommend we use for the FOH? I can’t find similar effects on other effect rack - we are using x32 compact. Thanks 😊
The FX 1-4 allows you to use the same FX multiple times. In the video I explain how I have a Vintage Verb (BUS 13) for FOH, Delay (14) for FOH, then Vintage Verb (15) for my stream and Delay (16) for my stream.
I put most of these tips into place on our M32R for services today and got lots of compliments. The FX in the livestream were exactly what we were missing. Thank you! In fact, I got so excited about getting the FX right that I have missed setting up the most important part: setting up the mixbus to post-fader! For now, I'm pretty sure the mixbus is still set at Sub Group. When the full band is going, the mixbus is loud and getting pretty deep into the orange on the meters. However, when it's just the pastor, I barely get two bars of green. Therefore, I need to adjust the mixbus fader during that transition from worship music to message and then again from message to closing music. Will this fix itself once I get it set to post fader? Will adding the limiter possibly help with this? I would rather not have to make this adjustment, but if I need to I will assign it to a DCA.
Go ahead and make that change to be a Post-Fader mix and the. You will have the flame in illy to turn up the pastors mic and make the fine adjustments to your stream mix. The limiter will also assist in getting the soft levels up while keeping the loud parts from clipping. I have my stream audio (music portion) just below clipping at -1 before it goes to our stream. I cover those settings in that video so you can go back and check over them using the quick links in the description.
You have been greatly helpful, I appreciate your willingness to share your knowledge. I have a question: so, as we moved into a hybrid reality for Bible study, we just purchased a shure cvo overhead, so that people can hear in house discussion. Now, it’s gotten a little feedback-y because of gain. As we don’t really use the overhead for worship, is there a way to send it only to the bus mix and not master FOH? Or, do you have any suggestions for eq-omg overheads for auditorium/sanctuary? Thanks!
A crowd mix should pretty much have everything below 400hz rolled out and the rest will depend on the amount of PA and other things coming into it. You will have to crank the gain since the subjects tend to be far away. As for keeping it out of the mains, just simply select the channel and push the ‘stereo bus’ button next to the screen so it is NOT orange. This will make sure it doesn’t go to the mains and then you can send it into your stream or monitors. I cover these concepts in this video about monitors. ua-cam.com/video/zwYcNieISF4/v-deo.html
Thanks so much for the live stream info works great. My current issue we have a vocalist which accentuates plosives a lot. I cannot find the right frequency to cut. Any Ideas?
Typically plosives happen in the 120-150 hz range. I usually use my low cut to sure this issue, but you could use your lowest EQ point if needed.
Thank you so much this video was exactly what I was looking for. I have a question how do I route the live stream mix bus to my live streaming software (OBS) using the USB on back of the console?
I'm glad you found this helpful. This video explains the three common ways to get your stream mix from the console to your streaming device. ua-cam.com/video/xGt1z5I7blQ/v-deo.html
I just wanna say thank you. I'm brand new to mixing....and this is exactly what I was looking for, and I've seen a lot of videos so far to improve our stream "room". If there is one area I'm not sure about is how you getting an L/R instrument, for example your acoustic guitar. Are you getting L/R signals 29:40 as different inputs or are you somehow duplicating one input and assigning them to 2 channels.
You are exactly right, I am doubling the input into two channels. I actually cover this setup and processing in this video here ua-cam.com/video/3xnQFr0XD0I/v-deo.html
@@AllamHouse thank you
yo bro thx so!
I’m glad you found the video helpful. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Great video, got it all setup now, question though. What source do you use to monitor? We have the projection/stream computer in another room. The person mixing the stream would be there as well, would it be better for them to monitor straight from the board or from obs?
Usually we have our sound tech monitor right at the console. It’s bot ideal, but that is what we have to do. If you have a second sound tech and can run a Pre-Fader AUX mix for tour stream, that is certainly a better situation. You could have them remotely mix the AUX feed from any device and it will bot get in the way of the house mix. You can then monitor from OBS (you’ll have to turn on monitoring and output in OBS) to have an accurate feel of the final mix.
Hey Great Video ! We tested in our Church and gave us a huge improvement. I would like to ask you, what Effects should i use to the House mix?
I’m was using the same FX on 1 and 2, and then the same ones on 3 and 4. This gave me a pair for FOH and a pair for stream. I have made adjustments in my scene and you can find those listed here… ua-cam.com/video/amxVZQ2NaF4/v-deo.html
Great video, needed that. Please what device or cable can I use to get audio from X32 into my computer for streaming using the mixbus or AUX. I make use of a video engine software called VMIX. Thanks
I have another video that walks through the routing to use the USB output on the back of the console. Requires and USB A to USB B cable.

Dave. First thank you for your vides. They really are a great resource for learning the x32! All my live has been on smaller analogue boards so you have been a blessing. The one question I am having on furthering my x32 setup at church for live stream is which layout style to use (my own words). You have a video showing aux send bus, using the bus sends, and then using a matrix. I was planning on using this video as my base an running out a stereo bus pair that was open. Can you explain the main benefits or differences from each of these 3 techniques? To me it really seems like using that using one of the bus pair is not really that different from using an aux pair? What benefit is there using Matrix instead of just the buses?
I personally use this MixBUS setup (slightly modified as I’m explaining in a new video series). It gives me the ability to have a separate mix that follows the house mix faders, but is crafted/altered specific to my stream. A Matrix is a quick way to grab tour main house mix and shoot it over to another location as well, but your Sends On Fader is used for MixBUSes, not inputs. I cover this difference in a short video here. ua-cam.com/video/I_9KeueWL-0/v-deo.html
Typically, the rule of thumb is to use MixBUSes to build mixes of inputs and use Matricies to send specific mixes to other places... like a foyer, cry room, or satellite speakers that need to have a delay out on them.
