Cheaper than direct from vMix. NB: registration code will not come instantly from Adorama, in case you need it then and there. Worth the wait.

I started out with the ree 60 day full program subscription, then moved up the line to the 4K level. Yes, like anything else it seems hard to use until the magic switch is triggered in your head allowing to you to move around with ease. No, I have not mastered the use yet, but I am working on it each day. I also use OBS, xSplits, and just direct stream into FB etc. vMix is much more complexed than the others and provides a better production. Practice, practice, and you will master one day. Enjoy producing and streaming and you will learn.
