Hello everyone,

I'm currently designing a vMix-based production workflow and would appreciate hearing from users who have real-world experience with solutions that have already been tested and proven reliable in production environments.

I'm specifically looking for recommendations regarding two areas:

1. SDI ↔ NDI workflows

I'm searching for hardware solutions that you've successfully integrated with vMix for both ingest and playout. The ideal setup would allow me to:

- Convert SDI sources to NDI for input into vMix;
- Convert vMix outputs (NDI) back to SDI when required;
- Maintain low latency and stable operation in live production environments.

If you've deployed specific products, I'd be interested in learning about your experience regarding reliability, latency, synchronization, and overall integration with vMix.

2. Dante audio integration with vMix workstations

I'm also evaluating the best approach for integrating Dante audio into a dedicated vMix workstation.

My objective is to enable multichannel audio input and output between vMix and a Dante network. I'm particularly interested in knowing:

- Which Dante interfaces or PCIe cards you have successfully used;
- Whether you're using Dante Virtual Soundcard, Audinate PCIe solutions, Focusrite, Yamaha, DirectOut, or other hardware;
- The number of channels you've been able to achieve reliably;
- Any recommendations regarding driver stability, latency, redundancy, or best practices for mission-critical applications.

If you have a setup that has been "battle-tested" and officially or unofficially validated in your production environment, I would greatly appreciate your feedback and recommendations.

Thank you in advance for sharing your experiences.
