I have four guests coming into a vMix session during a live show. I would like to have the ability to talk to the guests independently of each other from the gallery. Is this possible ?
I have an external XR18 mixer and was thinking this could a solution. My main mic is routed through the XR18 via XLR and then back into a vMix as a X-AIR ASIO input.

Can I send an independent vMix AUX bus audio output to each caller when they are not on air? We now have the bonus of ABCDE etc

I am also looking for a web based cueing system to remote cue a presenter.

Interested to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks

Hi Richard thanks for the advice but I did have a look around but I couldn't find anything about how to unlock the additional Bus's. I can only find Bus A and Bus B within vMix call and not C<D<E<F<G.. wondering if we ca use the additional Buses for the different talkback channels we have going for this production.

@ Ralston,

Once Audio Buses C to G are enabled in Settings ===> Audio Outputs
They will be available in the vMix Audio Mixer by right clicking on the [M][A][B] buttons of the Input in the Audio Mixer.

The exploded interest in vMix Call, and need for Talkback (implemented using many buses), illustrates the difficulty in seeing bus C-G. So, consider adding your vote the Request about a more intuitive layout of bus selection and overview

@ralson

Did you find a solution as I also have a xr18 and I would love to control the vmix call audio on my mixer

Thx,

Wouter

Hi Wouter ... No I didnt .. It doesnt look like the XR18 gives you the ability to output its BUS outputs via the ASIO Driver - only the inputs into the mixer...but... there is nothing stopping you hard cabling from the bus via XLR back into a spare input .. will test that tomorrow. I was recording a four way chat this evening via vMix call and couldnt get the Video Source/Audio Source sends to work either .. I want to be able to send a different screen back to the callers rather than the main TX output along with a audio Bus say BUS 3 which would have a different director on the call's talkback channel .. I was able to select BUS C for one incoming caller but not two, the second caller input wouldn't allow me to change the BUS to C only Master ...

USB outputs from my XR 18 are available as ASIO devices for Audio Inputs in my vMix

I did a quick demo of how to add a bus from the XR18 into vMix.

Hey Mavik, Thanks so much for taking the time to show this to us. The Air XR18 is such a powerful outboard mixer and combining it now with vmix will be a god send for us. Thanks again.

Do you need an external mixer to work with the extra busses in vMix? I also have an XR18 but I was hoping the busses and routing would be handled without needing it.

You do not need an external mixer with vMix (in fact, it can complicate things if being used bi-directionally).
