Tip: WDM Setup is from the perspective of the computer.

i.e. WDM Inputs: Input FROM mixer TO computer i.e. “WDM Sound device” for recording audio to Audacity, OBS Studio …

i.e. WDM Outputs: Output TO mixer FROM computer for media playback e.g. Spotify

from the mixer to the computer

1. Set up mix: Set Mix 15 & 16 to be a matrix (i.e. a mix of mixer outputs), then send MASTER to this mix.
2. Set up Digital Patching: Send Mix 15 & 16 to USB 63 & 64
3. WDM Setup: Assign USB 63 & 64 to input slots WDM 1 and WDM 2 of the WDM audio device.

NOTE: OBS Studio may not immediately pick up WDM device changes: Open the “Audio device > Properties dialog” in OBS, this seems to trigger recent audio device changes to apply.
