26 Features: Vmix

It’s 10:47 PM. The “Galaxy Cup” e-sports finals are in 14 hours. Marcus, the Technical Director, stares at his current vMix 25 installation. His input list is a mess of 18 cameras, 4 remote Zoom feeds, 3 instant replay channels, and a malfunctioning PTZ camera that drifts like a shopping cart.

The worst part of any show is the remote guest. But vMix 26 introduces . He creates a single call link. Click. Click. Click. Three remote analysts join on one connection. Each gets their own ISO feed. No separate browser tabs. No dropped audio sync.

Marcus opens his email. A notification blinks:

After the show, Jen asks, “What did we change?” vmix 26 features

The first thing he notices is the color. vMix 26 loads, and his main Sony FS7 isn’t washed out anymore. The new (HLG/PQ) treats his shadows like velvet and his highlights like diamonds. He mutters, “Finally, I don’t need three LUTs just to look normal.”

At 5:00 AM, the graphics guy sends a 4K60p Alpha channel via NDI. In vMix 25, this would melt the network switch. But vMix 26 includes . The graphic floats over the player’s head. No green screen. No keying artifacts. Pure, clean augmented reality.

That night, vMix 26 sends a silent update. A new feature appears in the menu: Marcus watches as the commentary automatically lowers the game audio—no sidechain compressor needed. He laughs. It’s 10:47 PM

One analyst is on 5G in a taxi. vMix 26’s adaptive bitrate turns their video into a pixel-art nightmare, but the audio stays pristine. Marcus whispers, “It’s alive.”

Jen stares at the monitor. “Is that… real?”

In vMix 25, this meant fiddling with external slow-mo servers. In vMix 26, he opens the new tab. It’s built into the main UI. He hits ‘Record’ on the ISO feed. He drags a slider. Cue . Play . Angle 2 . Cue again . He exports a clip to the replay channel in 2 seconds. His input list is a mess of 18

Then the disaster. A player breaks a chair on stage. The producer screams, “REPLAY!”

He takes a breath. He clicks install.

He plugs in his X-Keys panel. vMix 26 now supports with device-specific macros. He taps a button: “Kill feed & play stinger.” The entire show transitions without touching his mouse.

The drifting PTZ camera—the bane of his existence—stops drifting. vMix 26 remembers the of the PTZ head, even after a power cycle. He sets a preset: “Wide Stage Left.” The camera moves. It stops exactly there. Not two inches off. Exactly .

Marcus smiles. “Everything that mattered.”
