Is it possible for multiple operators to operate Vmix at the same time? Like have a person dedicated to graphics, audio, replay, a TD etc?

Thanks for the reply. I read through that, and scrubbed through the video. Didn't see anything about having separate operators on the same machine.

Now I suppose I could run graphics through Caspar cg and NDI into the vmix computer, and then a separate external audio mixer, and I could use some DAs and feed a second instance of Vmix all my audio feeds. Just seems like a lot of work.

Actually, can you run multiple instances of the vmix mobile control software? Maybe I can use multiple tablets to achieve what I'm looking for.

@ Jon Hart

vMix is a production tool that can be adapted to multiple types of workflows from the "one man show" to a full blown "TV Crew production", although each scenario will require specific or customized set-up protocols to accommodate a particular workflow configuration, which may or may not meet your expectations.
But a direct answer to your question is:
YES, it is possible!

The availability of the API, and external control schemes that leverage it, implies that it can certainly be used in a multi-operator arrangement. However, such a setup may not be readily available, off-the shelf. It may require some DIY.

I developed an iPad app for different people can run different things....also I read in the forums that there is a software that can use 2 or 4 mice on a single computer,so if u can get 3 monitors out each person can have a window open that won't conflict with the other mice and keyboards on same system
