Documentation

Chrome now allows this HTTPS page to connect to vMix over HTTP on your local network. If you still want to run the app locally, clone the gh-pages branch if you have Git installed, or open the gh-pages branch on GitHub and click Code -> Download ZIP. After this go to the cloned or extracted folder and open the index.html file in Chrome.

vMix Audio Handling

The audio volume science is a little bit hard to understand and vMix in addition also makes it even more complicated by using different scales. Here is some background on the Decibel (dB) based scales (like "volumeThreshold"), the formulas how the scales can be converted, and some examples:

Scales:
    Volume:      0 to 100    (used for UI volume bars, SetVolumeFade)
    Amplitude:   0 to 1      (used for API audio bus meter, @meterF1)
    Amplitude2:  0 to 100    (used for API input volume input, @volume)
    Decibels:    -oo to 0    (used in audio science)

Formulas:
    Amplitude    = Amplitude2 / 100
    Amplitude2   = Amplitude * 100
    Volume       = (Amplitude ^ 0.25) * 100
    Amplitude    = (Volume / 100) ^ 4
    Decibels     = 20 * Math.Log10(Amplitude)
    Amplitude    = 10 ^ (Decibels / 20)

Examples:
    ==== METER (measured) ===============      ==== CONTROL =============
    Volume (%) Amplitude  Decibel (dB FS)      Volume (%) Decibel (dB FS) *

  (*) for a usual incoming voice signal of -18 dB FS

Attention: Keep in mind that 100% of a Volume Meter corresponds to 0 dB FS, while 100% of the Volume Bar corresponds to the full incoming signal (usually about the target loudness of -18 dB FS for voice). So, if you attenuate by targeting a Volume Bar of 50%, you are reducing your incoming signal BY(!) -24 dB relative, and NOT TO(!) -24 dB absolute.
