How do I connect a mixer to PlayIt Live?

While we don't provide support for specific mixer models, here are the general connection methods:

For USB mixers: Connect your USB mixer directly to your computer and select the audio device under File > Settings > Live-Assist Mode tab in PlayIt Live.

For analogue mixers: If you don't have a USB mixer, you'll need a USB audio interface (such as the Behringer U-CONTROL UCA202). Connect as follows:

  1. Take the output from PlayIt Live through the USB interface
  2. Connect the output of the interface to the input of your mixer using RCA cables
  3. Take the output of your mixer back to the USB interface using RCA cables
  4. Record the USB interface as an input to your stream encoder

This setup allows you to mix PlayIt Live's audio with other sources on your mixer before sending to your streaming encoder.
