Sending LR mix out CH 1-2 of USB-B out

Qu Qu Troubleshooting

Hi,

Going to start right in with sth that I am sure is very simple but I am also sure many people do and I can’t seem to figure out.

I want to make it so the LR mix (or another mix) outputs out CH1-2 so essentially the master mix of the mixer becomes the input for Zoom. Can anyone think of a way that can be done? I have tried assigning CH1-2 to LR/L and LR/R respectively but it doesn’t seem to do the trick. Is this even possible or do I need an intermediary software to make that happen. Seems like it should be relatively straight forward but perhaps it is not.

Thanks in advance!

We just send the livestream mix out mix78 and dont have to hassle with usb at all.

Is your problem a limitation in the pc software for zoom, or is it truly a Qu problem?

Do you really want the master LR out going to zoom or do you want to give zoom a better mix without your room acoustics affecting the mix adjustments?

PC or MAC? wich desk? wich driver?

standard USB sends for Left/Right are 17/18
set this as standard audio device and Zoom should use this instead

I have done it.
First did you go to the IO set up and under the USB tab select L & R on tracks 1 & 2?

Have you confirmed that your software is picking off tracks/channels 1 & 2 from the
USB B multitrack out?

I my case a couple times I was connected to a computer that was running OBS and OBS was seeing tracks/channels 1 & 2 and I set them to the L R main mix.
Those were a live stream only event, no house PA to speak of.

Another time I was setting up a system and in that case I set up a separate mix to feed their live stream so some mix balance adjustments could be made.
I that case I’m not sure of the software they running but it also picked off tracks 1 & 2 and worked fine.

Are you also mixing for a live PA or is this for a ZOOM event only?

For testing use the mixers tone generator, if a live PA is involved you may want to turn off the system when testing or set up a separate mix.
