723237 - Need better control of audio feed to the stream capture device.

The current configuration in 10Fwd does not provide an easy way to manage the audio level to the streamer.  

To use the level slider on wirecast effectively we need a higher feed level.

Level control of output from a notebook connected to the podium does not appear possible.

I thought about putting in a mixer/soundboard in between the podium inputs and the rest of the system so we can control levels individually for each device (ie the podium mic vs the audio in jack on the podium).

That is a hack though, and ideally we should be able to control everything from the crestron control system.

The original description talks about 10 Forward, but this is now a continuing problem in all AirMo streaming venues.

I believe the correct solution is to have a dedicated output from the DSP with aggressive expander/limiter settings that feeds the ATEMs at a substantially higher level so the ATEM audio level controls are not always pinned at maximum gain.
