    I've been searching through his Youtube channel and he has an updated setup diagram YouTube It seems the functionality he has which I am looking for is the ALT3+4 Mix Bus. Because he plays music on the streaming PC, if he wants he can turn down the streaming PC volume on the Mixer which...

    Does a Mixer change audio tone quality?

    Nice explanation thanks. I was under the impression if the UAC-2 has the better pre-amp that I should reduce the gain output from the 286S and let the better pre-amp in the UAC2 increase the gain even if it is the last peice of hardware in the link. It's what the chap in the clip also did as...

    Does a Mixer change audio tone quality?

    Whoops :facepalm:, I remember when I was researching for mics that Dynamic ones were the ones suitable for bedroom Twitch broadcasting, but yeah I don't want condensors.

    Does a Mixer change audio tone quality?
