I know this video is a year old, so I'm hoping you've simplified your setup by switching to an ATEM mini Extreme, and getting rid of those 3.5mm to XLR boxes. Since HDMI carries audio, use the HDMI feeds to bring your audio from each laptop into the ATEM.
Great video with a lot of very useful information. I am trying to do almost exactly what you show in this video for our non-funded retirement club. I am trying to do pretty much everything myself with a couple of amateur camera "operators" and having a lot of connection issues, especially audio. Do you happen to have a cable connection layout diagram for this exact setup? That would be so very helpful. If not, I guess I can just watch the video and mark down every connection that you point out. I'm crossing my fingers that you already have a layout in existence. Thank you again for this video, and I look forward to any more of similar videos.
You would need to use 1 laptop that is solely dedicated for playing videos. You would then connect an audio adapter to the headphone jack of the laptop. The adapter then sends the audio to a channel on the mixer by an audio cable (xlr, or similar cable). To send to the virtual audience, you would need to do an aux send from the same channel on the mixer - to the USB audio interface. This is explained from about 12:42 to 17:00 in the video. Thanks
Thanks for the video, one part unclear to me. If there are questions from zoom attendees, won’t the attendee laptop audio will also output the handheld mic from the presenter, since it is in all together in the zoom audio signa output? Thanks in advance,
Thanks for your question. Here's how we have the audio setup. This is explained at 16:02 - 17:00, in the video. To the people in-room, The virtual attendee audio would be coming in through the headphone jack output of the "Production Laptop". It then goes to an input channel on the mixer via a laptop D.I. Box. The Auxilary send on this input channel would be set to "0" gain to avoid any feedback audio to the virtual attendee. On the virtual attendee side, it would be like any regular Zoom meeting. They would use their microphone to send audio out, and their speakers would feed the audio in from the in-room audio that is being sent by the USB Audio interface (13:01) in the meeting room. Hope this helps. Feel free to book a consultation on our website, if you have any questions.
@@360avrentals4 thank you, I got it. Getting the sound from the production laptop which has zoom running with the mic input from OBS. Then the speakers will only have the attendees audio. Thanks again 😀
Possibly a silly question: how do you make it look tidy once you've set up? Hiding all this cables across the floor, stuff under the desk, etc... is it just a case of taping it down and throwing a tablecloth over the production desk?
Great question. We tape down all cables using black gaffers tape. We also us production draping and black skirts to cover the cables at the tech table.
Thank you for your question. It really depends on how detailed the setup is for the event. There's a right way to do this and then, there's a cheap way to do it. If you want it to be done right, it won't be cheap. But it's an investment into the quality and impact of your event. Feel free to reach out to us on our website for a more specific consultation.
Thank you for the video, great explinations and good overview!
Excellent job thorughout the video. Very clearly articulated and the viduals clearly supported what the narrator was saying. Well done.
Love these walkthroughs! Would love to see more situations
Great video, thanks guys. Really helpful to see the audio setup more extensively in this one. 🙂
Thank you very informative. Starting a new job where I'll be doing something like this. Thanks again and good luck with your company!

Thank you so much man! Great video!
When playing videos precisely how do you get the audience and online viewers to not hear without audio feedback? Thanks

How much is a normally charge for something like that ?

Would the YoloBox devices replace Vmix or if they can stay together?
Yes, that is correct. The Yolobox replaces Vmix in this scenario.
