Our church wants to live stream services out to Zoom. We think vMix will make production easier than our current attempts at wrangling Zoom by hand. We want to have two USB cameras and two USB mics. We want to show a split screen a singer/pianist and hymn lyrics (powerpoint)for one segment. We want to swap to another camera on the the minister while he talks. We'd like to show pre-recorded videos. And we'd like to have an overlay in the upper right on all of it with our little logo. It seems like four is a lot of USB ports, but USB cameras are relatively low rez videos (not 4k) and possibly not a lot of processing power required? Tell me this is not going to require a huge windows box with a GPU card and a 4k monitor. Thoughts on a system?

The main factors to start with are your church's budget and what you already have.

Does the church have a computer (laptop or desktop?) for vMix or are you going to buy one?

What kind of webcams do you have (brand/model)? Does the church have a camcorder with an HDMI output?

Your church could use existing microphones/cables or take a feed from the PA system and route the audio into the vMix computer with something such as a Behringer U-PHORIA UMC202HD or UMC404HD.
