HI
I'm new to Vmix and have a situation coming up soon where I will have a host & three guests on a V call. I'm confused by audio buses and need to create a " virtual green room" for them here is what I was thinking. Can you let me know if I'm correct?

V mix operator - on Webcam not Vcall ( ME) - Bus A
Producer on V CAll - Bus A
Director on V call - Bus A

All on V call.
Host- Bus A + B & Master
Guest 1 - Bus B + Master
Guest 2 - Bus B + Master
Guest 3 - Bus B + Master
Guest 4 - Bus B + Master

This way the Host, the producer and director can all talk to each other without the guests hearing. Is that correct?

Many thanks
Mark

@ MJM

It is also a matter of what "Audio Source" you send back to each caller.
If I have understood your audio routing above correctly, then NO, if you send anyone's audio to Master, you no longer have a "virtual green room", that is LIVE on air.
Otherwise, in your set-up Bus B is the channel everyone can hear and talk to one another if you send them back Bus B.
"Production Crew" on Bus A is fine but can't be on Bus B (or Master) if you don't want guests (or audience) to hear them.
It does require a certain level of "management" if you are alternating between "virtual green room" and LIVE on air and who can hear what.
