Little Switch, Big Streams
Toggle from recording to livestreaming with the Music/ Streaming Switch. When in Music mode, each input acts independently with individual gain control. It also sends separate mixes to each headphone output.
When in Streaming mode all inputs are combined into one signal to work seamlessly with your streaming software.
Onboard Monitoring
Use the Direct Monitor Switch to send the input signal directly to your headphones while routing the same signal to your DAW or streaming software.
Loop it Back
The Loopback Switch combines the input audio with playback from your computer and routes it to your streaming software. This is perfect for adding background music to your stream or singing live with an instrumental track.
Using the Loopback function for background music during a livestream
