Question / Help Need suggestions on which direction to go when streaming audio

[Mike Winston]

Hey everyone,

I am using two C920 Logitech webcams, with a UR-12 interface from my Pioneer mixer for OBS. It's been a pain in the ass having to adjust the levels always in trying to get the audio in sync and loud and crisp.

I have seen so many tutorials about how people are using a SC4 Rode with their Iphone, or the Behringer UFO202 simple interface for audio from the mixer.

What I have been having more issues with is how and where to adjust the gains and levels just enough to where the highs and lows of the audio makes sense for the viewers to listen to my live DJ mix shows.

So what I have been wanting to find out is what would be the best suggestion in running audio from my mixer to OBS (laptop) with the easiest method and less adjustments to do in order to get the audio perfect quality I need? Im thinking the UFO202 would allow me to control all audio, lows, mids, highs from the mixer straight to OBS?

Also since people in the past had been using the Iphone straight for streaming (video and audio) with one video screen coming from camera on iphone, I would think the mic on the Iphone would be highly recommended to use for streaming with OBS since Apple had made such a great mic which picks up the music from the monitors and any vocals coming from anywhere else.

So if that is the case, is there a way I can also use the Iphone as a mic ONLY while still using the two Logitech C920 webcams in OBS? If I can, how do I set it up? Im assuming its through using the SC4 cable??

Thanks and any suggestions, tips, and advice would be greatly helpful.

Any suggestions?

The SC4 is for connecting external mics to the iPhone, not for using an iPhone as a mic. And I honestly can't see what the UFO202 would give you that your UR-12 doesn't. It certainly seems like a less capable device than the UR-12.

It surprises me, though, that you'd have continuous problems with getting the levels right; I'd have thought it would be a set-once-and-forget thing. Maybe if you go into more detail about what the problems are, we'd be able to offer some suggestions about how to fix them?
