[@LunarAbyss7]

I know this is an old video but being as I am new to dual PC streaming (from single PC streaming) this video was a godsend! I tried so many videos to get everything to work and nothing worked. The step by step GOXLR helped a ton. You’re awesome! Thanks!

[@HumanCraft1]

I just wanted to say, you are a phenomenal content creator. So easy to watch, incredibly informative, and overall helpful. Great job at what you do, love to watch your videos regardless of how applicable they are to my scenario.

[@NickAcker]

This channel has been beyond helpful this past month. I've been trying to figure out the best way to stream mixed drums with 12+ inputs while not really overloading my laptop and creating a massive amount of delay. The routing has been a pain due to the amount of inputs, but thankfully I can avoid it by using my board to mix. However, I'm definitely going to try using something like voicemeter for mixing in my DAW with live playback as well and see how that turns out! I just gotta thank you for the constant tips and advice explained so easily in your videos man, cheers!

[@geekyperi]

Whoa! Thanks man. I wish I watched this well before I bought my mic let alone my other streaming stuff. I had to go with the mix amp (awaiting delivery) simply because of the investment made on mic (AT2020USB) etc. Also the Aussie dollar makes the GOXLR around $450 where the Astro mix is $220. My 6 followers wont really know the difference. :) The 2 PC setup series has been so helpful, thanks again!!

[@HamVR]

For a 2 pc setup with the GoXLR, it's worth noting if you also want multitrack audio recording (e.g. in OBS) for post production editing, you are much better off connecting the GoXLR directly to the streaming PC via USB (and not the gaming PC as per this video) and using the line out and line in with the gaming PC (to send the mic audio and recieve the game audio). With Discord on your streaming PC, you will also be able to record your friends chat onto a different audio track. If you want an easy push to mute option in Discord, get yourself a $10 USB foot pedal you can wire to the streaming PC. Job done.

[@mrslapside]

Hi I got a audio interface and a mic on gaming pc will my audio go to streaming pc if I get go xlr with elgato?

[@jdaoust47]

This is exactly the way I went about it. Except instead of my line out going back to my gaming pc, I instead use the line out as a second audio source to my stream pc. Broadcast stream mix and line out to the streaming pc. Music and discord are also on my streaming pc. This way I can leave my music off on the line out for post production (most of my music is twitch safe but not youtube safe). I do not need any audio going to my gaming pc except the headset line out. I use the goxlr headset line out to the line in on the gaming pc and use my headset and headset mic for in game chat while my main xlr mic is going to my stream pc. On the gaming pc in the sound settings you can select the line in and check listen to audio. Now you are listening to all of the goxlr sounds on the gaming pc. Hope this makes sense!

[@xreadyaimmissx]

Thank you so much for all of your videos. I just got a GoXLR and built a new gaming rig. Streaming has been very rough the past two years, with only one pc. The frustration gets to me when I just can't get things just right so that the pc can handle the game and obs at the same time. Being able to split that stuff now is going to make this so much easier and more enjoyable for everyone. I've been using Voicemeeter and my Turtle Beach Elite Pro T.A.C. mixamp all these years. It's been an amazing tool to have, but I'm happy to finally have a physical mixer to change things. Also, RIP Sam and not muting. lmao

[@ChrisTitusTech]

Looks for referral link to buy goXLR in description... not there. Yup, Harris just loves the goXLR, but do yourself a favor and at least add an amazon link in there man. I'm so sick of dealing with my Behringer mixer that I'm going to do the same as you and just trade it in for the simplicity of the goXLR.

[@EternalElir]

I'm coming to this video a bit late looking for a nifty solution to take the audio from a 4k60 pro capture card and routing it to one of the Wave Link software's inputs, but I found this to be a super well done explanation of some solid audio setup options for anyone looking for a guide. For now I'm setting the OBS Audio Monitoring for the capture card to route to the Wave Link Game input that way I can alter the levels for me (all my audio is being done on the streaming PC) vs the stream.

[@M4croz]

Being honest i dont stream or anything but i do Home Office and i want to be able to use my mic in both pcs, mainly bc i dont want to keep plugging and unplugging it and want to be able to hear the audio from both pcs as i use them at the same time, so your channel has helped me a lot to improve my setup, thank you!

[@starked5630]

Thank you so much for this video. I've been fighting with voiceemeter for months and this made me just go buy the goxlr!

[@HappypantsGL]

this was actually really helpful. I just set up my dual pc setup and was still confused about audio and how to get it to go the proper places. Eventually I want the full goxlr but for right now I think I will try Voicemeeter cuz both my headset and mic are usb. Thanks :)

[@jonathankurtzer2316]

Very well done. I have been looking for that explanation for 2 years.

[@daoquang900]

one tip before you try Voicemeter, it CRASHES a lot!!! For every 30 mins I always have to go back and check if my voice is still ok or Voicemeter crashes and messes up my whole audio!

[@Nalerian]

Also, you can't change any devices physically that are set up in Voicemeeter without it crashing. Example: I output an HDMI feed to a capture card from my gaming PC, voicemeeter pushes the audio I want from that gaming PC to the HDMI out to the capture card. I occasionally make a video with my kid from the Nintendo Switch and swap the physical HDMI cable from the PC to the dock on the Switch. Voicemeeter crashes hard and needs a reboot (you can't just restart the sound engine, the entire program crashes) and all audio is hosed.

[@daoquang900]

@@Nalerian yeah, too much of a pain in the ass to use

[@justjake8095]

I recently just did a complex setup for my dual pc setup. I have 4 audio source coming from my main pc and going to my streaming pc - a mic, webcam audio, pc audio and elgato audio. This makes it easier to adjust the sound for my stream but also when I go to edit my videos (I record and stream) it makes it easier to change/edit each track to my liking instead being stuck with what I got. Thank god for NDI having a dedicated output filter for video and especially audio. The only part that sucked was syncing audio for my webcam with my mic and syncing my webcam/mic with my elgato for my stream

[@Redjkeee]

When I've been planning to build a dedicated stream PC I've thought that I would buy some fancy Yamaha mixer, but when it came to reality I was really on the budget. I've searched the web for ideal way to connect audio from both PC's how I need it. And one thing that had saved me is VBAN of Voicemeteer, it's kinda complicated but it totally worth it, I've learnt how it works and set it up in a few days, then just simply made a backup settings and done with it. Almost a year have passed and only a couple time I've been having problems with sound. Now I'm wondering to move on GoXLR mini and a new mic. Thank you, Harris, for making such a great content, you're the only guy I watch constantly on KZbin and always get that motivational vibes from you last year. I'm kinda late on your schedule due to my work, but I just don't skip videos 😏

[@mastodonlive9084]

I own that behemoth Yamaha. Never could get it to work in 100% sync with the set up but I'm not an audio guy. I'll give it another try after watching this. I would like to see a dedicated Yamaha tut too.

Harris this is a year to late but you are my hero... Thank you

[@jimmywohlers8888]

Got my GoXLR in the mail this morning. Very helpful video.

[@jimmywohlers8888]

I now have it set up so that my Astro mix amp is hooked up with my GoXLR. Love the combo. Had to hook up a ground loop isolator to help get rid of the feed back. As a former owner of a MG10XU, the GoXLR is so user friendly. If anyone is on the edge of getting one, i highly recommend pulling the plug and getting one.

[@f4n4tikkgamin43]

Well you don't have to complicate it that much in Voicemeeter. You can just use one of the two virtual inputs for your system sound. Then output that sound to your streaming PC, or separate it. What I do is: 1. Use Voicemeeter Aux virtual input as my system sound. 2. Use Voicemeeter Vaio virtual input as my game + discord sound. This way I separate the game from the system so I don't get various Windows alerts sent to my streaming PC and thus into my stream. 3. You can use "Virtual audio cable" input + output for music. This way you have three separate audio streams that you can control directly from your gaming PC. So you can basically achieve the same thing as with a Go Xlr. At least until you can get a Go Xlr. If you let's say want to split your game and discord/chat too, you can always use Voicemeeter Potato which provides 3 virtual inputs. So, 3 virtual inputs + virtual audio cable and you can have the same sound separation as you would with a Go Xlr. Happy streaming everyone :)

My MG12XU has been such a work horse for me. Started off with two AT2035's for my brother and I, then upgraded to my personal MKH50. I would personally pick up a RodeCaster Pro for a new audio interface. Only reason I wouldn't get a GoXLR is it only has 1 XLR input.

Hello! I have to say, Harris went into his preferred set up of playing music through his streaming pc and hearing chat from the gaming pc, but didn't explain how to set this up to be used with the goxlr! I have no way of using the GoXLR to lower the music volume with the instructions provided here. I know this is old but I am new to GoXLR streaming and could really use help with that aspect.

[@allengerjoey]

[@MightySquirrel]

You can also send alerts through your mixer over channels 7 and 8 if you have a dedicated mixer, by sending the alerts to monitor only, then into a USB sound card. The USB sound card is then sent to channels 7 and 8 on the mixer (this way you can hear your own alerts as well).

[@iAmLoeTheCreator]

Would you have to use a line in port on the stream PC to get the audio from stream port on mixamp? Elgato external capture cards feature an Aux port on them for analog audio however it doesn't look like the 4K60 Pro Mk. 2 does. This is my first foray into a Dual PC gaming & streaming set up so I want to get set up right the first time. I have the Shure MV7 microphone so it can be used as both an XLR & USB mic & already own the Astro A40TR + Mixamp Pro (console combo) . I don't have the funds for the Go XLR right now as I just purchased my 2 computers + 1440P 240Hz monitor and the less expensive Mini is out of stock, but I'm definitely interested in the method you mentioned using the MixAmp Pro as my audio controller. All of your content has been a blessing BTW!! I've learned so much over the past month in preparation to take on this new venture. Appreciate you!!

Thankfully the first streamer I see using actual real audio gear equipment ( Yamaha soundboard)

[@ChrisHazard]

With a wired headset and mic with USB and headphone out is incredibly easy providing you don't want to hear your STREAMPC audio - if you do, a cheap stereo mixer with at least 2 line in and 1 line out will do the trick (or pony up and get a goxlr and don't read anything below). GAMEPC: y splitter from speaker out to headset and to line in on stream PC - keep in mind a y splitter will decrease overall volume by a few dbs. GAME PC: plug USB mic in - headphone monitor jack on mic to microphone jack on STREAMPC - rather than hearing your own voice it sends it to the stream. OBS capture card settings, capture audio is line in jack - 0 latency providing you're cloning or using capture card as a passthrough, obs projecting will have a little bit of latency. Adjust headset monitor volume on microphone to increase/lower stream PC mic volume - 1 mic 2 PCs! This is how I have it setup for my streams until GOXLRs go down in price here in Canada and you can have more fun with your audio, I used voicemeeter in the past but I hated the latency it introduced. Hopefully this helps somebody who's in the same situation as me. Cheers!

[@MateuszZych]

The cheapest version and for me the best is Voicemeeter and a set of rules set in OBS using ducking in the compressor

I keep my set-up as simple as possible. I capture video with capture card and capture audio with OBS NDI, it just works. stream PC uses USB mic and if I ever want to go in discord I use my webcam mic EZ clap. Ideally I could just connect a aux cable from gaming to streaming PC but i couldnt get it to work so i stick with OBS NDI for now

[@fawkyooo7377]

Question do you know how to have 2 PC's go to a ?Mixer? ?GoXLR? and output to a set of headphones so you can listen to both PC's at the same time? and then be able to adjust the volume on each PC? and lastly be able to switch out put from headphones to external speakers?

[@bigmeatie]

Would you not be better connecting your GoXLR/Mini to your stream PC? That way you wont need to worry about unbalanced signals being sent to your stream. You can send your digital audio from your gaming pc (most MOBOs have a digital output). This would also allow you to switch the digital input to a console too if needed without complicated routing options.

[@SavageSenzu]

It shouldn’t be this difficult to import audio from a capture card to one pc to another pc setup for streaming. But yet it is. Before anyone comments yes I use voicemeeter banana and no I haven’t been able to get it to work. No matter the settings.

[@dashofawesome64]

Just use the van function in voicemeeter. Install it on both pc's and then go to "outgoing streams" turn vban on put in ip of the pc you gone send it to. Remember the name and on the other pc you go to "incoming streams" Add the IP of the audio stream where its coming from and press ON on both done.

[@jerridmutter1638]

My current setup is a USB Mic - Elgato Wave 3, USB Headphones Arctis Nova Pro (wired). ------ Once I output my audio to the HDMI cable going out of my gaming PC, I no longer have sound going directly into my headphones. I want to keep using my headphones on my gaming PC, because I don't want to switch over all the time when I want to game off stream. -- I'm wondering what software or mix I should do (or can I do it) on my gaming pc to send audio both to my headphones normally (The Nova's have a spatial sound/surround sound feature that I use) and to the HDMI cable so the streaming PC has audio. ---- For the Mic I was going to use the headphone jack on the mic to the mic jack on the streaming PC and filter my mic sound there. ---- I do have access to both the elgato mixing software and the Arctis mixing software. I do not want to buy a GoXLR Mini without having an XLR mic. ---- Do any guru's here know the method to this madness? I plan to run Discord and Spotify on the gaming PC. My alternative is to plug everything into the streaming PC and hook up my headphones to it, I'm just not sure that is the right solution. I may want to game and not have the streaming PC on.

[@StarHiKou]

I think if you have an USB mic, you could just have "listen" checked on 1 of your PC and a 3.5mm male to male audio cord routed to your other one. However if you do want to hear yourself I'm not sure if a simple splitter is going to work. Other sound like gaming audio and discord could just go through your HDMI or DP via capture card

you are not just a hero but also a national treasure

[@mrgusse]

Is there a reason why you use a virtual cable as default device and set it to hardware input #1 in voicemeeter instead of setting Voicemeeter VAIO as default audio device and voicemeeter VAIO AUX as default communication device? If you do like I say you have 2 hardware inputs for cables that can be used for music, alert etc.... and you can still adjust levels on all sources. for me the set up is like this on voicemeeter potato: HW Input #1 : USB mic -> A1 + A2 + B2 HW Input #2 : Cable-A Output (music) -> A1 + A2 HW Input #3 : Cable-B Output (alerts) -> A2 + B1 HW Input #4 : Cable-C Output (not in use) HW Input #5 : Cable-D Output (not in use) Voicemeeter VAIO (default device) -> A1 + A2 + B1 Voicemeeter AUX (default comms device) -> A2 + B3 A1: Speakers (motherboard) A2: Headset (DAC) A3: not in use atm A4: not in use atm A5: not in use atm B1: Stream main audio (desktop sound, alerts) B2: Microphone (used in discord, stream basically everywhere I use mic, which makes me able to use compression, gate etc for mic on all programs) B3: VOIP (audio source for VOIP on stream) Now I use a single PC setup atm, but this works. And give me alot of control.

[@FreddyGabriel]

I know this is old but I'm at the end of the road here trying to figure all this out. GOXLR SM7B USB Capture I have it all set up perfectly. The issue I am having is audio. If I check line on headphones, I hear a buzzing sound. Audio works fine. The communication between two pc's work. If I check Line in under line out I get a humming sound that is so loud it rips a hole in your ear drum. I keep hearing my voice which I don't want to hear. In a single stream setup, I disable headphones so I don't hear my voice. With a duel PC setup, there is no way around disabling the input of my voice coming from the stream pc. I'm sure you probably won't answer this as the video is old. I'm hoping someone has a solution to this. I'm about to switch back to my single PC setup and call it a day.

[@AvocadoPit]

I personally don't enjoy using the voicemeter output for game audio for my headphones like in the second setup. I used to use this before but there tends to be some minor latency that does effect the whole experience of playing fps which are games that I play for streams. Just tossing it out there so that maybe there's a better way of setting it up. I personally use a setup similar to the second one but I plug my headphones into my gaming computer and use the audio jack on the mic to plug into my streaming computer as a mic input. I also use a speaker output from my main computer and plug it into my line in on my streaming computer as to introduce less latency for gaming audio. I'd like to hear you opinion on this harris, and if it is a good way of setting it up.

the mini is 250

[@drunkendracula8412]

Well yeah dude thats why its so easy to set up. 500 isnt ridiculous if you want to have simplicity. But yknow i get you, its so not cheap though

[@adamklase8547]

Guess I'll apply this info when I can afford a 2nd PC 🥺

[@rissaska]

My streaming pc cost 150€

[@KenjiTech]

a 2nd pc should not be too hard to get because unlike your gaming PC, a streaming PC can have much more corners cut. if you are going to use GPU encoding, the stream PC does not have to have a top tier CPU and not even a high end GPU because AFAIK the hardware encoder is the same across a GPU generation. for example: a GTX 1050 has the same NVENC hardware as a GTX 1080ti. that means you get no quality improvement from buying a more expensive GPU from the same generation - get a newer entry model instead if you can afford it as the hardware encoders get better each generation. then again, who builds a seperate stream PC to use GPU encoding - right ? just slam a used GT 1030 in there and spend as much as you can on the CPU

[@liamstraub3394]

just buy a old used dell latitude

[@duttiee]

My streaming pc was $415

[@pekokopiko943]

My streaming pc is my old Asus X550XV laptop

[@shakultra]

This is dope but how would you record separate audio tracks while using the goxlr ? I use voicemeter and I send all my audio from vm to my streaming pc via vban and then the audio is split up on my streaming pc in obs so when I record my stream the audio will be on separate tracks.

[@KiryiMONZTA]

Ok, I use USB mic and USB headset. As far as I understand I am able to transfer all sound from my gaming pc (game, TS) to my streaming pc just by adding my capture card from my streaming pc as an output in a software (e.g. voicemeeter) on my gaming pc. Hum, sounds more difficult when I'm writing it but actually it's easy, right? Thanks for the help. Or I did get anything wrong, but even then thanks for the help. :D

[@Luagsch]

How does GoXLR work with a soundcard? Let's say f.e. Sound BlasterX G6 (also USB) or internal Soundcard? As if I understand correctly the CoXLR sort of becomes a USB soundcard for the PC it's USB-plugged in (?)

[@xthe_moonx]

what mic do u use when recording video on youtube? it sounds way better then when u switch to ur streaming pov

[@conkey99]

How would this differ if i have a soundcard? Currently im running a audigy fx 5.1 for the headphone amp and a Blue Yeti. Iv got Blueyeti into voicemeeter and iv got my soundcard going into voicemeeter, from there there going to voicemeeter vban back to streaming pc. Do you think there is any other way of doing this? Im thinking about getting a GOXLRmini but im wondering if i even need it atm or im happy with my current situation. If you can think of any other different configuration that does the same without having to use Vban id greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Great Video!

[@krzykyle]

So you go over how to setup the gaming PC with voicemeter but not the streaming PC. Is there anything extra we have to do there?

[@wickedslick4399]

"3.5 inch" lol.. I think you meant 3.5mm. no judgment.. there was a LOT of technical jargon flying out of your mouth. This video was extremely helpful. Thank you

[@taithermansen8315]

Man this was great but it’s still missing the one piece of information I can’t seem to find. I am using essentially your first setup with a roadprocaster mic. I am trying to get my mic to go to the streaming pc on a separate channel so when I record my stream for later production I can mute or modify my audio separate from my game audio…. Any advice?

[@TSCupaJoe]

Really appreciate all your videos and VERY insightful. I dual PC stream and finally about to get the Mini GOXLR but can't figure out if I'm going to be able to set up my headphones sound like I need. I play PUBG religiously and need my "Loudness equalization" under the windows sound option. Is there something similar when right clicking the "Headset" on the GoXLR? If not any idea how I could route the sounds back to my PC headphones so I can use the windows default Loudness EQ? Preferably without VoiceMeeter, LOL.

[@RetepBoy]

Part 3... getting different audio sources into your recordings, while also streaming. Do you record and stream on the streaming pc? When you record it's nice to capture multiple audio tracks. What is the best way to accomplish that?

[@Vahlkor]

I don’t know if anybody has asked this question yet... So part of my dual PC is having a channel in my mixer for all my consoles. These consoles are connected through an HDMI switcher that goes into an HDMI splitter with audio extractor. From the splitter I send video signal to my monitor and capture card, all I have to do is select the switcher channel from the console I am going to play and viola I have video in OBS and audio in my mixer for that console. So the mixer has audio for my gaming pc, audio for all my consoles and audio for my streaming PC. Now does GOXLR has an input that I could use for all my splitter audio source?

[@JustinV911]

For the stream pc is it just one 3.55mm cable? And game pc is done via usb from goxlr mini?

[@editlmaoontwitch6725]

Let’s say I were to use voice meter how you were to get my voice and game volume to the stream pc with a usb mic, would I be able to somehow grab discord voices and send them over through my capture card and to the streaming pc?

[@jeffreyharding5709]

Great video.. do you have or can you make a single pc audio setup?

[@MrRourk]

Yes Nvidia has made doable. But it is limited and does not take much to stress CPU and cause stuttering

[@malfana07]

I have Creative 5.1 Surround Speaker and a gaming headphone that I alternately use them both depends on whether I 'm on gaming or watching movies with my family. How do I connect both output devices with Go XLR (or another brand mixer) if I wanna use two pc setups (currently I m streaming on single PC )
