Assistance setting up an Xenyx 502

HunterScott

Hi there!

I recently bought an Xenyx 502 premium 5-input 2-bus mixer to use with my streaming set up.

I've been using a virtual mixer after suffering from a few playback issues. I have a dedicated streaming PC that my Blue Yeti is connected to via USB, I also have a 3.5mm jack going from the Bllue Yeti to my gaming pc.

As you have to set your output to Elgato Sound Capture on the gaming pc to capture your gameplay audio, I was unable to listen to the game audio through my headset. This is where the virtual mixer came into force and allowed me to record my gameplay audio and microphone input and also listen to the gameplay audio through my headset.

 

With the Xenyx 502, how would I set up the device to reproduce the same effect? I may have been incredibly vague here, so feel free to throw some questions my way if you need me to elaborate on any aspects of my set up.

 

Cheers!

Use two track for PC audio and Channel 1 for mic audio. I have a 802 and I love it once you get your levels set up.
