Hi all -

I am running QLC on both a Windows HP Spectre x360 i5 and I have the RPI image for a Raspberry Pi 3.

I have a Yamaha MG10-XU mixer with USB audio interface and have searched high and low for a solution that will allow QLC to pick up the audio from the mixer and translate to the audio trigger widget. I have looked into midi clocks, bpm triggers, etc.

Any help would be appreciated

Can the MG10-XU be used as an audio input when connected to your computer? Yes, you can now use the audio input and bind it to the audio widget of QLC+.
If you want to play music from your computer and use this signal as audio input for QLC+, you will face other problems and need some hardware tricks. This is because QLC+ needs exclusive access to the audio input signal.

Thanks GGGss - The external mixer would become the audio input source on the laptop. I will need to continue to play around with this and find a solution. I will report back when I get a chance to setup my gear and post back here with the solution
