I have an announcement graphic (e.g. webcast will start soon...) and I was wondering how I could play an audio file (music) along with it.
Right now I can either play/show one or the other but not both together(?)
I tried using the audio as an Overlay but no joy...
Wirecast used to do this using 'layers' which are not a feature in vMix (?)
Any advice?

I would bring in the audio file, create a virtual input of it, and then add the still graphic in the Multi-view tab under settings for the input.

Many ways to do as have been posted. Did you trying playing the audio file and using the graphic as an overlay? That's simple and works.
