Building a Pro Streaming Setup For PS5 (Mac OS)

[@Unlockingparadoxes]

Believe in yourselves and each other and never give up on your dreams and aspirations and remember to be kind and uplifting to each other and open minded and genuine and respectful and humble.

[@F3PIZZA]

Thank you.

[@takethebluepillnottheredpi584]

Why does this sound like Jerry Springer closing statement after his show 🤔😅. Sounded almost like it

[@Unlockingparadoxes]

@@takethebluepillnottheredpi584 merely coincidence. I've been using this quote for literally years.

[@Unlockingparadoxes]

@@takethebluepillnottheredpi584 Jerry Springer is a legend though.

[@Unlockingparadoxes]

Rest in peace Jerry Springer. 😔

[@aaronnobu]

The fact that you consider Macs makes you my actual favorite channel in this space. To all my gaming friends: I know I know, Mac and gaming and streaming yada yada yada ive heard it all lmao. but they're the best computers in so many other circumstances....and "just get a PC" isn't always feasible. So thank you MidnightMan!!!

[@Quickcat21MK]

Apple sucks if they don’t want you doing something they allow user interface interruption. Windows is still not like that.

[@martymcyourflysdown6872]

@@noetic8 Everything he said was true. Macs are superior for audio and video editing. They just suck for pretty much everything else lol

[@Arcvde]

I had actually lost motivation to start a steam because I had a Mac and PS5. You have actually helped me ignite my fire again to stream

[@MidnightMan]

You can do this! Mac’s are stream machines too

[@peek73]

I have been streaming for years now, and finding out how to do all this on my own was a nightmare. I game on X-Box but my setup is very similar to this one with a few minor changes. Thank you for putting this out there and I will send people here if they ask me how to set up their own console stream. Perfect man, just perfect.

[@MidnightMan]

Happy to help 😊

[@heavenbalanciere9744]

Hey I'm trying to setup for a Xbox.... what are the differences?

[@heavenbalanciere9744]

I'm trying to setup an Xbox to stream for fun with my friend. Can you tell me the differences that you mentioned in your comment?

[@andrelong1410]

My guy kept it so simple unlike other people tryna sponsor different brands thx man

[@iStayReddy]

I cant express how scarily precise this video is for me. Literally the PERFECT video 😂. I literally have no excuse not to start streaming now. Thank you so much

[@Yami2Hero]

Bro where do I connect the usb 1 slot to? And on the PlayStation what sound (output device) to use. And what mic device to use

[@iStayReddy]

@@Yami2Hero the USB C slot should connect from your Elgato to your laptop. I imagine your commentary mic should also be connected straight to your laptop too so that can be used as an audio source in Streamlabs. The sound output device should stay whatever you’ve had it as this whole time. Alternatively, experiment and see what works if there are issues. Happy streaming! 😊

[@Quickcat21MK]

Have you tried? You cant play off stream footage you need a separate monitor.

[@Jetstreamhustla]

I might as well get into it lol 😭 let’s do it!!!

[@PerfectlyPoachedEgg]

Do tell me you started streaming? I adore hearing people taking steps towards creative content that can pay them.

[@AJCoReTV]

Yup, similar setup as me! M1Pro, Nova Pro wireless, HDX cap card, PS5, OWC 12 port dock… with WaveXLR + SM7B plugged into to line in on the Nova Pro. No chatlink pro needed for my specific setup. 🎉 Details: WaveXLR 3.5mm line out to the line in of Nova pro DAC… PS5 audio set to “hdmi TV”… this is how you bypass using chatlink! All hdmi capture baby! 😊 Now with this video here, he shows a great way to stream with only 2 usb ports! Nice! My setup requires a huge usb dock with many ports.. so pros/cons.

[@MidnightMan]

Thanks for sharing! I always typically go HDMI TV myself as well, but love how many options are available with this gaming headset. It’s gotta be the best gaming headset out there, I’m extremely impressed by it

[@AJCoReTV]

@@MidnightMan yup! Love them, worth every penny! I just learned diff ways to use them thx to this vid. Your other vids have helped me when I first made the move to Mac.. follow to check out upcoming desk tour that will hopefully give back some ideas.. will def give a shout out 🙌🏽

[@nosn4me03]

Are your arctis nova pros the ps5 or Xbox version?

So happy it helped you!!

[@TheRecoveringGamer]

Bro! I've been watching you're videos for different things since the PS5 came out (from your remote play how to's to gadgets) And you just now created the video that I've been doing research on for almost 3weeks now, it's hard to look for a how to video regarding this exact setup. So I just want to say, thank you! Love your videos man!

[@diskostoo]

I finally pulled the trigger fella on the Nova Pro. Total game changer for sure. Appreciate the guide man. So easy following this. Epic results! LESH GOOOO!

[@MidnightMan]

Right move, I thought I was gunna return mine, that never happened they’re too good 😂🤣

[@SkillzNGameplay]

I've actualy built a mini streaming setup like this, replicating my main setup, love streaming on a macbook air M2 its been great, best of all barely any equipment compared to what im used to, even more streamlined i used the facetime cam 😂 (with some software tweaks) , great guide easy to understand 👌🏼

[@Yami2Hero]

I am lost I need a step by step. I don’t know which end of the chat link pro goes into where. I don’t know what settings on the ps5 to use as far as mic/output device. And I don’t know where to put the other end of the usb 1 cord that connects to the game dac please help

[@jayyviews]

Wow, I had to subscribe immediately after watching this. I started streaming earlier this year but my setup wasn't this dialed, I just simply hit live on the Playstation itself and did that, but after seeing this I'll be making a complete 180 and will make another attempt because I do enjoy it a lot, this might be my sign to get back into it! Thank you again, P&L!

Just a heads up, it doesn't need to be an Elgato Chatlink cable from the DAC to the capture card. I use the exact same setup with a regular generic P3 cable from the DAC's output into the Elgato Capture card.

Why is it advantageous to have game audio & mic audio as one audio input? I enjoy having control over each one independently and I can add filters to the mic (A50). Thanks for the help. My HD60 X & chat link pro come-in today! STOKED!

[@MidnightMan]

Very nice! 👍🏽 and some folks just like having a simplified setup

[@CapnFlags]

@@MidnightMan Makes sense! I have a ridiculously complicated setup. I’m pretty sure it is the only one like it in the world. Wiimote & Nunchuk on PS4, 55” LED TV on the wall, my butt on the couch, a 36” swiveling piece of PVC pipe jutting out from the wall behind me, a camera mounted on the top of that pipe pointing down, paracord hangs my WiiS4 Controller from this pipe, then I have A50s and a M3 MBP, to boot! Hahaha! Upgrading from AVermedia to the cat. My next upgrade needs to be an external monitor of some kind. The MBP is off to the side so I can’t see comments pop up. The very next upgrade will be some form of Stream Deck. I am highly caffeinated and wow what just happened?! Hahaha! Dude I mean it when I say thank you. I fist watched your videos years ago and this position was a fantasy. I started with a PS4 Camera pointed at my hands on my weird controller. I’m not someone who gets brand new MacBooks! 😂 That kickstarted things, combined with my GF’s encouragement, understanding, and assistance. Let’s face it, you pretty much have the best videos for someone with my exact setup…well, except for, you know, my WiiS4 controller, Controella 😂🤣 Cheers, MM 😊
