Guides
Step-by-step guides for setting up Active Intercom, the commentator console, vMix and Relaya.
Set up your crew intercom in 5 minutes
Create an Active Intercom workspace, add channels and crew, install the iPhone and Android apps and make the first push-to-talk call — step by step.
5 minConnect a remote commentator to vMix
Install the free Active Intercom Commentary Bridge on the vMix PC, add the commentator's voice as a vMix audio input over VB-CABLE and go on air — step by step.
15 minSeveral commentators in vMix — separate inputs, IFB and mix-minus
Give each commentator their own vMix audio input with slots and VB-CABLE A+B, send them a mix-minus programme return and talk into their ear with IFB.
20 minCommentators in Relaya cloud production
Link your Active Intercom workspace to Relaya with one code, assign commentators from the cloud control room and put them on air in sync with the picture.
10 minCommentator console: match-day checklist
What the commentator does on the day: microphone and quality, headphone mix, sound check with the director, GO LIVE, MUTE at half time and troubleshooting.
5 minPanel view and key assignment matrix
Use Active Intercom like a hardware key panel: LISTEN and TALK keys, latch, IFB, calls — and decide with the matrix who sees, listens to and talks on which channel.
