Integration details

Audio inputs for live caption workflows

Use laptop microphones, USB interfaces, virtual audio cables, or browser-recognized audio sources to power live captions. The goal is to keep the integration simple for event teams: one caption session, a clean audio path, and a browser-based output that can move into the tools, displays, or audience devices already used for the event.

  • Flexible audio routing

    Stage Captions can work with many common audio setups recognized by the browser.

  • Better captions from better input

    Clean program audio helps the caption engine produce more readable live text.

  • Fits real event setups

    Teams can use the source that already exists in the room instead of rebuilding their audio path.

In practice

How teams use this integration

  1. 01

    Connect the source

    Plug in the microphone, interface, or virtual source that carries the event audio.

  2. 02

    Choose it in the browser

    Select the audio input in Stage Captions the same way you would choose a mic in a video call.

  3. 03

    Check level and clarity

    Confirm the feed is clean before the session starts so captions receive the best possible input.

Common questions

What teams usually ask

What is the best way to use Stage Captions with Audio inputs?

Start with a Stage Captions room, connect the event audio source, then route the browser-based caption output to the display, stream, or audience access point that fits the event.

Does this integration require a custom plugin?

No. Stage Captions is built around browser outputs, links, and QR codes, so most workflows can use standard browser views rather than custom production plugins.

Can the same caption session support other outputs?

Yes. The same live caption session can support multiple viewing paths, including production tools, venue screens, confidence monitors, and attendee devices.
