Multi-Audio Streaming Setup

[Project2501]

Hi all,

 

I've been asked to advise on something that's honestly a little out of my usual ballpark - hoping someone might be able to point me towards some relevant/pertinent reading material.

 

My boss has started streaming webinars for our clients, and have Q&A sessions at the end.

 

The marketing team tried doing one last month with a Yeti and audio coming back out of the conference phone, as you might imagine it was awful.

 

Need a multi-point audio setup (both input and output) that's got minimal fuss to setup/teardown, can be operated by regular users, can support at least 4 but preferably 6 heads and can get easily routed through a PC (thinking S/PDIF or a PCI-E card with jumps for XLR)

 

Annoying, this is in a grey are between a single system streaming (too small for purpose), and studio/broadcast audio (for which I don't have a budget) which I know pretty much zero about.

 

Anyone got any clever ideas?

I would grab a mixer and a Behringer HA400 (or something similar) and then an audio interface for output/extra inputs IF needed.
