Live streaming DJ sets, help! Posted on: 04.03.2013 by Nickie Poper Hi all,Recently came up with the idea to put on a live stream to help promote my club evening , I just need some tips on how to set up a proffesional looking/sounding stream. I have access to 2 computers, my laptop (running Traktor) and my desktop which I was going to use for webcam and audio. I was just going to go from my booth out on my mixer into the line in of my desktop but the sound quality is awful! There is a lot of distortion. I use Traktor Scratch Pro, with turntables and a mixer using an Audio 6 Can anyone help? It would be appreciated! Aiden | |

| Gaynell Rydberg 04.03.2013 | Ahhhh. I see now. Well, desktop PCI sound cards are relatively cheap. Probably about 30 bucks can get you a nice one, and it'll probably have less latency than the Audio 6. If above doesn't work. |

| Gaynell Rydberg 04.03.2013 | Yea, so change the mic setting on your stream to the audio card, just as if you're doing a mix. I'm just guessing though :P |

The way I have mine setup is 2 black magic HDMI input cards along with 3 Logitech C-920 cameras. Wirecast becomes your 'video switcher' so to speak and works rather well. Wirecast is not cheap but in my opinion it is well worth the money if you are serious about video broadcasting. |
| Gaynell Rydberg 04.03.2013 | Can't you record directly from the sound card? |
