VST Live

Advanced Live Performance System

Streaming🔗

VST Live can stream its audio and video to other applications. Currently, it supports streaming to OBS. With OBS, any incoming audio and video stream from VST Live can be sent to a variety of platforms such as Twitch.

OBS🔗

OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) is a free, open-source application used for live streaming and video recording. It allows users to combine multiple audio and video sources—such as cameras, screen captures, application windows, and external inputs—and send the resulting output to popular platforms like Twitch, YouTube, and Facebook Live.

OBS is widely used by musicians, performers, gamers, and content creators.

When used with VST Live, OBS receives audio and video streams directly from the application, making it easy to broadcast live performances or virtual shows to any supported platform.

You can route any audio channel to the OBS output channel. Alternatively, use a Send on an audio channel to feed audio to the OBS output.

Connection🔗

The order in which you start the applications does not matter — you can launch OBS first or VST Live first. VST Live automatically establishes the connection as soon as both applications are running, ensuring that audio and video streaming is instantly available. Just start your tools in any order, and the stream is ready when you are.
