You will need to make sure Monitoring is turned on for the ‘Any Input’ channel. To do this, click on the headphone icon next to ‘Any Input’.

Step 4. Take the Call
Initiate the call in Skype and check there is signal coming into the ‘Any Input’ and ‘Mic’ channels, if there is – you are ready to broadcast a Skype call.
