Cool stuff, you guys. Whatever frustration this set up caused, it's all totally worth it.

Also, I hope the end goal of the voice filters is to make everyone sound like Reapers.

Very cool. Thanks @vinny. When are you going to be on Bombin the AM or a Bombcast again? Can't wait to be regaled by the tales of setting up a new studio.

I'm so pissed - we picked up an ATEM 1 M/E Production 4k, and it was cool, but then almost IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARDS the ATEM 2 4k came out, and now I'm super sad. You can't really setup multiple overlays with virtual cameras with the ATEM 1.

I would like to say that I would absolutely love to see more in-depth content on the production side of Giant Bomb. Call the series Professor Vinny Presents (Or Another VinnCo Innovation!(TM)) , and dig into cable standards and technical specifications, and I will be a happy duder. I was sad to miss out on the PAX production panel and and as a production nerd would be thrilled to see stuff like that.

I'd also love to see a tour of the San Francisco studio. It sounds glorious.

CBS couldnt give you more funds to buy something better than a behringer? they work ok if you treat 'em well, but I feel like they could've given you some cash for something nicer.

@vinny: Were those inputs mostly getting cropped before output? Looked like somewhere in the chain it was trying to crop off an overscan problem (but the computer and PS4 didn't have an overscan issue and so the edges were being cut off - also meaning a 1080p recording was no longer recording a 1-to-1 pixel capture of the actual output).

Ha, nothing that sinister, thanksfully. I actually cropped it in post because the audio software displays the IP address for the connected the device in the top window bar.

@vinny What are the cameras you are using? The one I can see looks a little like a Blackmagic Cinema Camera.

If they are, how do you like them?

I'd watch a 12 hour live stream of Vinny figuring out the new mixer. I'd pay good money for it, too.

So Vindawg, looks like you're virtually set-up for your own version of the big live live NY edition show live.

Seriously, cool vid.

Get a Surface Pro and controlling all those dials and faders would be a lot faster with the touchscreen I think.

As somebody who knows just enough video production stuff to be dangerous, this kind of stuff is amazing.

@ares42: The music Vinny uses in his videos is the only thing I have a problem with. I understand it's there to make the content seem less boring, but I think he overuses it a bit, or at least needs to get a better selection. Midnight Brown, maybe?

@godlrod2: Watching any kind of GB content while consuming liquids is very dangerous indeed. I learned that the hard way once with a cup of coffee.

@tribski: I know it's not cheap and I think Vinny alone is more than worth the cost.

Amazing work Vinny! I'm excited for you too. With those effects you could even make Alex sound like a normal person now.
