Hi, first time poster here, maybe known to some of you from other places .
Looking for a screencasting expert please!
I'm trying to set up a film scoring tutorial video using something like OBS, or Manycam and appear to be running into problems. I'll describe the setup and then the problem!
The Setup
Line 6 Helix Rack as audio interface.
Cubase Pro 12
Nexigo webcam
RODE mic for V/O
OBS or Manycam or similar (it seems they all work very similarly).
The Problem
The two main areas of major issue are -
1. when I select the Helix (or insert own interface here) to be captured as an audio input inside the screencast software, it will either capture the playback or the instrument thats being inputted but not both. So in the case of demonstrating how I might score a film, we either get the audio track of the film, and possibly anything I have recorded on the timeline, but not the sound I'm recording analogue into the project. or we get the opposite effect, which is that it can hear what I'm playing on guitar but won't listen to the film's existing soundtrack/Cubase overdubs.
2. I can't get the Cubase video player to be 'seen' as a window in any of these apps. It simply doesn't show up as a 'window' to other programs. (whereas audio performance oddly does).
I know this stuff can be overcome as Thinkspace and various youtubers seem to have everything in one place flowing. Any experts please get in touch!
