But I cannot then listen to and monitor myself with that delay. In my own case, because I am using SD (in 16:9) and Firewire, I need 203 ms of audio delay from the Shark. Not to mention the screen real estate involved. You can do many things in the vMix inbuilt recorder, I think it's just that we reckon it would all be so much easier if we could just do it manually in a normal mixer rather than have to keep clicking on faders and buttons onscreen. I can then talk "off air" as required and then just bring myself back "o air" at the appropriate time.

I want to play pre-recorded video content, which has its own audio, so it would be nice to be able to fade that in gently underneath my intro, which is then faded out. Being able to incorporate a compressor, limiter gate, have aux effects sends, separate monitor or headphone mixes, setting up EQ to minimise say, background computer fan noise.

Behind every BBC style tv talk show for example is a proper sound guy, who has to sometimes "ride the levels" all the time, to maintain a consistent audio level back to the production guys. Instances of wanting a proper mixer include setting up a mix minus for Skype callers, adjusting their mic levels or muting if there is interference on the line. You are developing a good relationship with the Studiotech folk now, so a look at how they handle things would provide many clues -:) Why have they upgraded their mixer to an enormous Behringer X32! -:) But vMix has much better facilities in other respects.

I too started with VB and yes, it has everything on the audio side handled via a hardware mixer and it's very easy to understand. I think it's not so much covering a live event, where for example, all the mics can be fed into a mixer and then into vMix, as when doing a tv style show that these issues arise.
