6. Mixing and Loopback Audio
Revelator Dynamic is equipped with a powerful yet easy-to-use mixer that lets you blend your micro-
phone with three stereo audio streams. These can include playback from a recording application like Stu-
dio One, the audio from a Skype call, the sounds from your favorite video game, or all three at the same
time.
If you’re just starting out and only plan on recording your voice, you won’t ever need to use the mixer.
However, when you’re ready to start adding call-in audio to your podcast or creating more elaborate
streams, this mixer will solve a myriad of routing problems and headaches.
Revelator Loopback streams will be listed as “Revelator Dynamic Stream Mix A” and “Revelator Dynamic
Stream Mix B” in software configuration menus.
macOS users, please note: All the mixer descriptions in this section assume that you have enabled
Multi Mode. This will provide you with the best user experience. If you haven’t enabled Multi Mode,
please take a step back to
the Universal Control Section and do so now.
6.1 What is Loopback Audio?
Loopback audio is the industry term for routing audio from one application to another. Applications that
use audio interfaces, like your Revelator Dynamic, are designed to receive audio from one audio device
and also send audio to one audio device. This means that most applications can only send to and receive
from an audio interface… not from other applications.
This can present a challenge in certain situations. Still wondering why loopback audio is so cool? Here
are some great uses:
l
Make your Podcast Guests feel like they’re right there in the studio with you. Not only can you
easily record the audio from your Zoom guest, you can combine your mic signal with audio from Stu-
dio One—and send the entire mix to Zoom by selecting one of your Revelator Dynamic’s Loopback
Devices as the source for Zoom. Your guests hear both your voice and your audio add-ons while you
record just their voice!
l
Create Super Pro Screencasts. Most screen-capture applications let you include your mic OR your
system audio. With Revelator Dynamic’s mixer and loopback streams, you can create a mix of both
your mic and your system sound then use a Revelator Dynamic Loopback Device as the source for
your screen-capture application.
l
Make a Gameplay Video. Just like with making a screencast, loopback audio makes recording
Gameplay audio and your mic at the same time quick and easy.
Best of all, the Revelator Dynamic’s mixer makes it easy to monitor any mix you create, so you can
record and stream with confidence, knowing that what you’re hearing is exactly what your audience will
be listening to as well.
