I am completely new to streaming. As in, this afternoon i downloaded this software and tried to get it to work. I am an audio production professional. I have great mics and I am going to use my Yamaha TF5 mixer for this project. The mixer hooks to my PC through USB and will send multiple channels of 48k audio. I cannot make the OBS software recognize the audio coming from the mixer. It "sees" the mixer as a device and gives me the option to select it in the audio settings. However, the RTA meter for the source never registers a signal. If I play amazon music on my desktop, the signal registers on the meter whether i have the default or the TF selected as the device and nothing I do to the TF effects the levels of the desktop audio signal in any way. I use studio audio gear often and generally understand how this stuff works. My question is, how do I tell OBS to look for signal from the TF on the specific channels that the TF sends on. Or, conversely, can anyone here tell me what USB channels OBS looks to as a default so that maybe i can set the TF to send on those.
More confusing still is the case of my DAW. When I could not convince signal to register coming from the TF, I routed the TF into a DAW on my PC and used the "record monitoring" function to essentially turn my board audio into desktop audio. I have no idea why audio coming from a DAW program would be treated any different than audio coming from a music program such as Itunes or amazon, but it is. This problem has me baffled. If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it.
