I’m a product manager on Mixlr, so if anyone wants a hand with setting up a broadcast on Mixlr, feel free to send me a message directly.

Also very easy to set-up several remote locations from one account if that’s what you want to do!

It’s sadly right in the middle of the night for me but for people in Europe or America the time is manageable : Blanck Mass is going to do a livestream on Satudray 21st at 20:00 GMT.

Ben Powers is one of my favourite artists (loved his work in Fuck Buttons, love his solo work too), I bought some little things from him I didn’t already have on Bandcamp today, hopefully the live will be stored somewhere later.

So you can listen to Scanner / @robinrimbaud’s live, get something to eat/drink and then listen to Blanck Mass. Not bad for an isolated Saturday.

Sounds like a fun evening. I’ll try not to ramble on too much after my set then to give people a chance to grab a bite to eat and relax their ears :slight_smile:

Did my first test streaming last night on OBS and Twitch. I also tried to stream on YouTube and Facebook, but couldn’t get the streams running for some reason. Tried generating stream keys several times on those platforms and putting them into OBS, but only Twitch worked—hmmm.

Thanks to everyone posting in this thread—it helps to see what everyone else is doing. I’m streaming as resonant_space on Twitch and will be doing more streams soon. It was a little crazy, since I was doing both modular video and audio synthesis, plus trying to handle the stream, but it was fun. I’m one of the coordinators of the DC Modular Collective, and we’d like to figure out how we can do multi performer shows. Is that possible on OBS? Could I provide the video stream and use a remote audio stream? Or just switch streams from OBS? Thanks!

I’ll be doing a relatively short live show on Monday at 4PM, Paris Time (GMT +1).
It will be Broadcasted on Facebook Live. Hope you’re all well.

I’m watching Colin Benders unfold reality in Amsterdam with a live performance with Audio Obscura. Yesterday a stream with Hainbach was aired too.

So his hard is this to set up? I know nothing about Linux servers or anything, I’m on a Mac. Can the resulting stream then be sent to Youtube, Twitch or something? I’m really struggling to find info regarding multi-user location streams.

I did find this software called JamKazam. I tried it and it works but it looks really outdated. I have a feeling this company went out of business.

It’s really easy, my performance today used OBS on the iMac, which connects directly to YouTube. Worked perfectly and used iPhone as my camera and quality was superb! Check it out here if you want, if only to see the quality :slight_smile:

Some notes about streaming audio & video shows:

  1. Stream yourself to the world: Use OBS locally, stream to Twitch / YouTube / Facebook who’ll do a great job of getting it to anyone who wants to tune in. Hardest part is setting up OBS - which isn’t that hard, see other posts.

  2. Stream yourself to friends on your own: Use OBS locally, stream to a linux server in the cloud. Use nginx to reflect the stream to people connecting. You need to supply them with the URL, and you pay for all the outgoing bandwidth. That said, if you want to stream to say <100 people w/o using the big services, this is doable if you have some Linux chops.

  3. Multi-location stream to the word: This is complex - but I’m working on it. I’m doing it with a linux server running ngenix and OBS on the server (!) - which is then remote controlled to composite video and audio artists, switch between sets, show title cards, etc… I’m setting this up for an upcoming on live version of our monthly Resonant Frequencies concert. If this is the kind of thing you want to do, my work-in-progress design, notes, and instructions are here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OLvpEui-GOJ7qOuGXoMd3d0XYw58Zjry-_7kjwG1CFc/edit?usp=sharing

Quick question about the show—will you all be recording/archiving it on twitch for viewing later?

While watching your wonderful stream, I was thinking I would never get such a nice image quality since I just have an iphone that I could use for streaming :slight_smile: Now this has become super possible. Thanks for the info and the music.

not sure… with each person streaming from a different location it’ll be up to them to make a recording. hopefully but no guarantees rn.

Thanks for the heads up and have a great gig! Strange new world we suddenly live in.

What app do you use to turn the iPhone into a Webcam ? How do you connect it to the computer ? What’s the latency ?
Thanks !!
