section.

The

Master

audio mix includes all inputs in vMix, including Cameras, Microphones and Videos and will be

recorded according to the levels set in the built in

Audio Mixer.

Make note of the

Automatically Mix Audio

setting as this determines if audio sources are automatically

muted when not in use.

Multiple microphones can be connected to your vMix PC using a USB ASIO audio interface, such as from
Behringer, M-Audio, Focusrite and others.
The

Behringer UMC404

is an example of an audio interface that supports up to 4 XLR microphones and

each can be added separately to the vMix audio mixer for independent control.

Advanced - Using an External Audio Mixer

In the diagram above, all external audio sources such as Microphones are connected to a separate external

Audio Mixer

.

There are two connections that need to be made to vMix:

1. vMix Audio Output connected to External Audio Mixer Input

This contains all the audio from vMix inputs such as video clips.
This can be connected using a stereo audio cable from the computers built in Speaker Output or a USB
Audio Interface such as the Behringer UMC404.
Many Audio Mixers include built in USB connectivity which is recommended to ensure the highest possible
audio quality.

Regardless of which output method you choose, this output can be selected under the

Master

option

Settings -> Audio Outputs

in vMix
