Steinberg redefines the sound of streaming and puts total control in the hands of creators

Steinberg announced the immediate availability of MixKey, a powerful audio mixer offering a versatile set of tools designed to meet the needs of demanding streamers, podcasters, and creators.

MixKey is a professional audio mixing application created for live streaming and includes a wide range of features to meet every need. Using MixKey within a streaming setup ensures high-quality audio, thanks to its built-in low-cut filter that helps deliver clean and clear speech at all times.

Its customizable interface allows users to change channel colors and names, as well as easily adjust volume levels. Added channels can be monitored through headphones, and by activating the Cue function, individual sources can be listened to. Notable features include auto-leveling, recording of the full streaming mix, multi-source input, and panic buttons to mute the microphone or the entire audio output with a single click.

These are exciting times for Steinberg, as we bring many years of audio software development to the streaming market. In collaboration with Yamaha, we are thrilled to introduce MixKey, which offers streamers a reliable audio mixer packed with outstanding features, said Stefan Schreiber, Head of Strategic Business Development.
