BRIDGE CAST: How do I mix the game sound of PlayStation 5 and voice chat with the BRIDGE CAST, and then stream everything? (using a computer)

You can mix the game sound of PlayStation® 5, voice chat, and computer audio with the BRIDGE CAST and then stream it using a computer.
*An HDMI capture device is required. Please use a device that has the capability to output audio separately. (commercially available)

Follow the steps below:

*A dedicated driver must be installed to connect BRIDGE CAST to a computer and handle multiple audio sources. Install the dedicated driver before connecting the BRIDGE CAST to the computer via USB. For details on installing procedure, see "Installing the BRIDGE CAST app and driver" in the "BRIDGE CAST Owner's Manual".

1. Connect a microphone or headset to the BRIDGE CAST.

   *Use an XLR cable for connecting a microphone.
   *Use a cable with 4-pole (TRRS) mini-phone plugs (3.5 mm) for connecting a headset.
   *See "Connecting to Your Computer or External Equipment and Configuring the Settings" in the BRIDGE CAST Owner's Manual.

   

2. Connect your monitor speakers, headphones, or headset to the BRIDGE CAST.
   
3. Set the USB connection setting switch to "PC".
   
4. After powering on your computer, connect the USB ports of the computer and the BRIDGE CAST using the included USB cable (Type-C to Type-C or Type-C to Type-A).
   BRIDGE CAST automatically turns on, and the indicators on the operating panel light up.
5. Connect the HDMI capture device, computer and PlayStation 5 as follows:
   *Connect the PlayStation 5 controller to the AUX jack on the BRIDGE CAST using a TRRS cable (4-pole stereo mini plug).
   
6. Depending on the voice chat app you are using, make the following settings:
   • When using a voice chat app (e.g., Discord) on a computer (recommended)
     To feed the microphone audio of the BRIDGE CAST into a voice chat app on your computer and to output the voice of the person you are chatting with from the computer to this unit, make the following settings for the input/output devices for the voice chat app.
     *See "Configuring the Device Settings on Your Computer" - "List of devices" and "Examples of settings" in the BRIDGE CAST Owner's Manual.
     • Input device: MIC (BRIDGE CAST)
     • Output device: CHAT (BRIDGE CAST)
   • When using the voice chat functionality of PlayStation
     Connect the PlayStation 5 controller to the AUX jack on the BRIDGE CAST using a TRRS cable (4-pole stereo mini plug). With this connection, BRIDGE CAST works like a headset of the controller, and the audio from CH[1] (MIC) is fed into the PlayStation 5 via the AUX jack. Also, the voice chat audio on the PlayStation 5 is fed into CH[2] (AUX) on the BRIDGE CAST.
     *Both game and voice chat audio is fed into CH[2] (AUX). Adjust the volume balance in the PlayStation 5 settings.

7. Start streaming with a streaming app (e.g., OBS).

   *In the audio settings of the streaming app, set the input (microphone) to "STREAM (BRIDGE CAST)". For details, visit the official information provided by each application.
   *For details on adjusting the volume on the BRIDGE CAST, see "Connecting to a Video Game Console" > "Adjusting the Volume" in the "BRIDGE CAST Owner's Manual".
