Producer

Lay out overlays from anywhere.

Invite a Producer, or open Live Center yourself. Lay out scenes and overlays from a browser. When Studio is open, Switch takes a scene live. When it is closed, pick a cloud profile on that tab, and Studio picks it up next time that profile is open.

  • Edit any scene without cutting the one on air
  • Move, resize, show, hide, and add overlays
  • Mute, volume, and duck tracks from the mixer
  • Create and edit elements, including Element Builder
  • Work on the setup when you are not at the streaming PC

Capture devices, encode, and go-live stay in Studio on the streaming PC. Moderators stay on chat until you promote them.

How it works

Invite a Producer and lay out the scene

01

Studio signs in first

Sign in on the streaming PC so a cloud profile exists. Get Studio from Downloads. The Producer tab lights up from that profile, or live when Studio connects.

02

Invite, or use it yourself

Owners and admins already have the tab. To give someone else the Producer tab, invite them as Producer in Settings, Staff. They sign in on their own account and land in Live Center.

03

Edit the scene, then take it live

Open a scene without cutting program. Move overlays and captures, show or hide layers, mute or duck audio, or create an element. Switch takes the scene live when Studio is connected.

Two modes

Use Producer with Studio open or closed

While Studio is connected, the tab controls the live canvas. When Studio is closed, it edits the cloud profile that Studio will load later.

Live

Studio is connected

Prepare a scene in the tab while the program stays on its current scene. Your Producer can switch to BRB without using the streaming PC.

Away

Studio is closed

The same tab edits a cloud profile you pick. Open Live Center from a laptop at work, or Edit in Producer from Studio in the control panel. Studio loads those edits the next time that profile is open on the streaming PC.

Stay on the PC

Go-live stays local

Capture devices, encoder, Scene Builder, and Go live stay in Studio. Producer is the overlay layout, not a remote desktop of the whole app.

On the tab

What a Producer can do

Scenes

Layout without cutting

Click a scene to open that layout here. That does not cut Studio. Switch when that scene should go on air.

Layers

Move, resize, show, hide

Move and resize overlays or capture layers on a schematic canvas. Add an overlay you already have, or remove a layer from the scene.

Elements

Create and edit

Create a new element from the tab. Edit opens the existing editor, including Element Builder. Delete and regenerate overlay URLs stay with owners and admins.
