Streaming The Moment
vMix is a powerful, flexible and easy-to-use real-time video production software that covers almost every live-production need: concerts, school events, sports, worship services, esports, webinars and more.
It is also budget-unfriendly for small teams:
- HD: $350
- 4K: $700
- Pro: $1,200
When you need multi-platform or multiview streams, the bill multiplies.
That’s why we pair vMix with the C6 hardware encoder—a cost-effective way to send different pictures to different platforms without extra vMix licenses.

Real-World Case 1
Taiwan Tech Summit 2024
- Public: President’s keynote → Facebook Live
- Private: Internal awards → YouTube Live
- Problem: Facebook stream must end with an outro slide; YouTube continues.
- Solution:
- vMix 27 (4 external outputs + trigger macro)
- C6 encoder fed with two distinct program mixes
- Facebook output stops automatically after outro; YouTube output keeps running.
- Result: One operator, one vMix license, two independent streams, zero downtime.
Real-World Case 2
Multi-view Concert Stream
- Requirement: Same performance, but viewers choose between stage-cam, drone-cam, or crowd-cam.
- Solution:
- vMix 27 sends three external outputs (each a different multiview).
- Each output hits a dedicated C6.
- Three separate RTMP endpoints give the audience interactive camera angles—no extra PCs, no extra vMix licenses.
Key Take-away
Use vMix for mixing, C6 for multiplying.
You get unlimited platforms & views while keeping software costs locked to a single license.
