I'm a new user and I want to add audio from a Presonus soundboard. What is the best way to do this?
My guess is using an AUX output into the line in, but being a newbie, I'm open for suggestions.

Welcome. Yes, that would work. If your Presonus has USB output that may work too. What is the model number of the unit?

It is a studio live 32 channel. I’ll check the number, it was purchased new in 2015.
I tried running it in as a mic from the aux and I got a signal that I had audio, but it didn’t show up in the recording. I’ll watch a few more videos and try again on Saturday. This is church equipment so I can only experiment when I’m there.
Thanks for reaching out.

As Tom mentioned, check for USB and see if it is being used in the current setup. The Presonus StudioLive32 does have USB I/0. Also, the Tape Out (RCA jacks) may be unused in the setup. The mixer has several output choices.

According to THIS MANUAL the StudioLive 32 can be used as a USB audio interface, so you should be able to plug it in and have vMix see it as an input. The manual also says it has ASIO (page 8), if this is the case not only will you be able to access the main mix but each channel as a separate input to vMix while also sending your master vMix audio back to the desk.

It has 1 USB port in the front being used for networking. In the back it has two FireWire 800 ports. Can one of these ports be used with an adapter to go to usb in the laptop? There is also a data port out as well.
Thanks for the feedback.

I was able to get the StudioLive 16 to connect, and I can see all the input channels on the mixer.
I was wondering if it is possible to add the mixer's "Main" output as an input into vMix via USB?
Thanks, Jon

This should be possible too. I use a different mixer (Behringer XR18) there I have a matrix what audio is available on what USB/ASIO. You may need a software from the vendor to make the same.

I found a duct tape solution!
Route/patch the main outs back into two unused channels (either physical or digital if possible). Then add those channels into vMix via USB.
It's not the best, and hopefully there is a better solution, but it's what I found for now.
