Hi guys, I was wondering what would be the best setup for the following scenario.

Feeding audio from a mixer 150 mtrs away from my PC.

Is there a way I can stream the audio from any mixer into vMix via WIFI or BLUETOOH?

What would I need to accomplish it?

A possible solution: use a cheap pc to convert the audio to NDI, use a ubiquity nanostation to send the NDI signal to your pc.

Hi

I think the easiest (and most reliable) solution is to use XLR cables. As long as it's balanced and properly shielded, XLR supports 250m.

Wireless transmissions over 150m could be done too, for example with a wireless bridge, but it implies more gear and serious tests.

You can also find cheap audio Tx/Rx on Wifi 2.4 Ghz but 150m seems to be a little too much imho. Basic Wifi is usually limited to 100/120m.

I heard about Bluetooth systems with 400m range but I don't know if it's reliable and if it transports uncompressed audio.

Another solution is to go with Ethernet IF you can have a switch in between. An ethernet cable is limited to 100m.

Thank you guys,

I do Live Streaming for meetings and conferences using vMix, but sometimes the audio or PA system is way far from my PC, that's where the question came about.

Yes I was wondering about getting the audio feed as a NDI source.

I appreciate the suggestions.

I've used a pair of TP Link CPE-510, they are good up to 15 km.

TP Link CPE-510

with 2 PC's and a mixer, with NDI with minimal delay.
