Can i connect PC and Mac together? I want to use Mac for live make music in DAW program and my PC I want to use for OBS streeming my music with adding some video camera source or audiovideo bacground file or another live source for my music from Mac. It will be works fine?
Hi Adam! Thanks for the video. It did followed your instructions and it worked for me in OBS but not in ZOOM? However, I could send from Logic but not from Protools Ultimate.. I used my HD Native Thunderbolt card as playback engine in PT. Any idea why I can't route audio from PT to ZOOM? Thanks in advance!
Hey! For me, it's the mostly the same setup going to zoom, obs, Skype, etc. So Zoom - in protools I will have a microphone track sending to an aux with source nexus. I will send my protools output to the same aux with Nexus. Inside Nexus my input would be VIDEO CHAT. that's just what I name it, it can be anything. In zoom under preferences and audio setup look for the microphone input. Zoom is upside down and they make.thia.thw second option. Here choose VIDEO CHAT or whatever your Nexus input is. In zoom choose the output you want. This should do it. You should now have your mic and protools audio sending to zoom. Beat of luck!
It's great. Less than a frame. When I am recording my voice in OBS I add eq and compression in Pro Tools. This adds latency but you can calculate that and compensate on the channel in OBS.
@@AdamClairmont Thanks for the response! I use OBS, but I'm currently using an ATEM Mini Pro ISO for my switching and audio is coming in thru the line-ins as well, a stereo DJ mixer signal and a mono Røde Wireless Go signal. My setup is relatively quiet under normal load, so I'm ok in this environment without noise suppression, but otherwise interested in using VSTs to mess with sound. Before the AMPi I used to use audio from separate sources in OBS, and I can test & calculate the amount of compensation needed, but it kept changing from OBS boot to another, so doing it all (video and audio) via the AMPI gives me solid sync, once the audio-to-video difference is once checked and compensated (5-7 frames often). When I need creative routing, I use Loopback on Mac, which is similar, but doesn't do everything Nexus does.
Sounds like a solid setup. I have the Atem as well but haven't yet gotten too deep in it. Was super happy to learn last week you can delay the audio for sync in it's software. So would you be running your mixer and mic into something like ableton ahead of the ATEM to manipulate the audio? Or would the VST's come inside the ATEM software?
@@AdamClairmont To be honest, if I did something with Logic (my main DAW of choice) using specific plugins or some other live routing needing stuff, I'd probably do that internally to/from OBS and leave the ATEM audio for the usual DJ mix + mic stuff. I think the ATEM can be seen only as a stereo gadget and I think I can't input anything to it with Loopback (or Nexus). I'm itching to the get the bigger, the Extreme, ATEM as it's possible to ISO record all the 8 channels (which I don't really need currently) AND use the web cam interface, which is not possible on the Mini and Mini Pro. Also Supersource is awesome for live interviews and such.
Okay, I see what you mean. Maybe I don't totally understand how you want to use the VST's. But hypothetically, you could route all the audio to logic, do what you do there with plug-ins etc, even leave somethings dry if you wanted like your mixer for example. Then take a stereo output from your interface into the ATEM and compensate for delay there? But maybe that's not what you meant earlier about using VST's. Sounds like you have a great setup, it's amazing what is even possible.
Well I'm not. This video shows how to route audio from protools or Skype or etc, into OBS. Not how to record in protools. But if you want to use nexus to take audio from a source like zoom, UA-cam etc and bring it into protools to record then take the instructions in the video and reverse them. Insert Nexus in protools on an aux. Select the proper receive ch in Nexus. Then bus the output of that aux to the input of an audio track in pro tools. Record enable and there you go. Hope that helps.
Ha! Thank so much! Hope it was helpful. Kermit lives to see another session, don't worry. In fact he has had a steady perch on one of our treatments overseeing everything for the past 6 or 7 years :)
Just learned that Source Nexus for Windows is coming VERY VERY soon! Hope that helps some of you!
Great video! Will be checking out Nexus for sure. Digging the production style too!
Hey thanks Matt! Still learning about editing and producing video...so much to learn, very humbling!
Can you use Plugins on the chain in pro tools before sending to nexus

How is the latency, like camera to audio lip sync?

I record voice-overs for TV with Source-nexus and use zoom to display pictures. All works.
Awesome!
i think you just saved my life
Ha! That's how I felt when I first learned about this thing!
The routing is a bit unclear in this video. How are you recording the output from nexus into PT with this set up? thanks

@@AdamClairmont thanks for taking the time to reply. I've figured this out now. Best wishes.
Okay 😎
good job sir!
You can do this through dante aswell.
That's right, I hadn't thought of that! I don't have any dante in my studio though... Good call though thanks!
I have no idea what you’re talking about but I love this! Very entertaining but..Kermit!😥🤣🤣❤️
@@dfed249 Thanks Dona!
RIP Kermit. Great intro haha.

$300??????? hmmm
$300!?!?!
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaah my thoughts exactly LOL
