Getting Audio from your mixer to your Livestream — RODECaster Pro, Mackie DLZ and any other mixer

In this week’s episode we show 3 main ways to get audio from your mixer — such as a RODECaster Pro, a Mackie DLZ, a ZOOM Podtrak, or any other mixer — into your livestream. We cover sending audio via USB, to your camera, or to a hardware switcher like an ATEM.

If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F6, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders. Our latest courses cover Sound for Live Streaming with the ATEM Mini and an Intro to Izotope RX. https://school.learnlightandsound.com
