I only need realtime audio for monitoring (with video the cpu usage is very high, almost 20% on a i7 Win7 64bit system).

The vmix call (vcall) video source can be disabled but then there is no audio source option anymore.

To save resources an audio only option would be very welcome.

You've been given at least 3 working solutions to send vMix audio only to remote locations in this other post you did here : https://forums.vmix.com/...time-audio-over-internet

1 is the use of VLC or FFMPEG

2 is by using ISDN-like services (with a free account) which are in general for radio purposes which is by definition what you want to do if you're not sending video. These work in a browser which can be used directly in vMix through the WebBrowser input.

3 is to use a WebRTC service like Michael Graves suggested. Will work thru the WebBrowser input too if you mind setting this up in an external browser

Options 2 and 3 are very easy to use (Option 1 too if you have a little knowledge to start with)
Some of these will work out of the box when EXTERNAL is ON in vMix (use vMixAudio device). Others may require the use of a Virtual Audio Cable or NDI Virtual Input.

I think it's worth "at least" giving it a try...

With all respect, but let other vMix users decide if they like this request.

Of course there are workarounds, but nothing tops basic functionality :)

I need this too, requested a version of this a while ago to sync two audio channels with one video source outside of a network. I prefer not to add too many workarounds because it's very hard to undo a project later

+1 I need this too because I don't like to teach our team of volunteers every time how to maintain a workaround.
