Every overlay lit at once on the house rig, 18 September: the merged chat, the tip moment, the word and the door, the Live On strip.

Multistream setup: OBS and Restream

Go live once. Land everywhere. Read one chat. Wake up to the clips.

The broadcast rig I go live on every week, on your OBS and your accounts. One encode goes out and every platform you toggle lights up. YouTube, TikTok and Discord chat arrive in one rail with their marks. A gift on any platform gets a moment on screen and never a dollar figure. And the recording is cut, captioned and checked before you are awake.

Who this is for.

I built the first one because I was drowning. These are the three people it was built for since.

The owner who streams to one platform

You go live on one platform and the people on the other three miss it. Setting up a second one by hand is the thing you never get to.

One encode out of OBS, every platform you toggle lit, and one Live On strip that shows you where you are.

The show with four chats and one pair of eyes

You cannot read four chats at once, and the one you miss is the one that tipped.

Every chat in one rail with its platform mark, a moderation gate in front of it, and a tip moment that fires by itself and never shows the amount.

The creator with hours of replay nobody watches

Every stream leaves three hours of video and nobody is going to cut it.

The night is scored, cut in both shapes, captioned and checked by morning. What passed is on a contact sheet; what failed says why.

What is in the box, and what the month adds.

Everything in the first column ships with the one-time shape in the house look and the house sound, running on your accounts. The second column is what the monthly seat does after that. Nothing on the add-on shelf below is needed to go live.

IN THE BUILD
  • OBS on your machine with the four desk scenes in the house look (ink, gold, paper) with your name and logo in place
  • One encode fanned to up to five destinations you already hold accounts on
  • The merged chat with a platform mark on every line, and the bridges to the platforms that expose one
  • The tip moment: the stock sound, the stock card with a first name and never an amount, and the spoken thank-you
  • The code word card, the door card and the Live On strip
  • The stock cue pack (join, tip, follow, share, question, seat, win) and the stock transition
  • A licensed bed under silence: the free StreamBeats pack or the house drone, never your own playlist on air
  • On-air redaction of prices, phone numbers, addresses and names, and the kill switch
  • Installed on your machine from the intake, one sit-in on your first stream, the recording, the scene collection and the keys handed over
THE MONTH ADDS
  • Stream keys and sign-ins kept live on every destination (TikTok reissues a key per session unless LIVE access holds)
  • The strip and the cards updated when your schedule or your door changes
  • One scene or destination change a month
  • The bridges tested before your first stream of the month
  • A business-day fix when it breaks

Build your package.

The base is the whole thing, running, on day one. Tick what makes it yours and the total follows. None of the add-ons are needed to go live; every one of them is running in the house today. Add-on prices show the day it opens. The other half of the studio, The Room That Runs Itself, is its own page.

  1. The base
    The Booth Build and handover, one time
  2. Add on

Nothing added yet.

Not open to buy yet. Hold your build and it comes back to you the day it opens, or see one built first, Friday at noon Eastern, free.

One email when it opens, with your build on it. The seat is the free session, one reminder the morning of.

How it lands. One sit-in, no call to book.

Buy it, fill in the intake, and the build happens from the intake. The one live session is the handover, where it gets broken in front of you on purpose, and the intake is where you pick its slot.

  1. Buy it here

    Stripe checkout: card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. The receipt lands in your inbox and sends you to the intake on this page.

  2. Fill in the intake

    Ten minutes. Your machine, the accounts you hold, the platforms you want lit, your logo and the page you want on the door card. You pick the sit-in slot at the end.

  3. The rig arrives as a package

    The OBS profile, the four scenes in the house look, the overlays, the chat server and the clip pipeline, with the install sheet and a recording of it being set up on a clean machine. Your keys go into a file on your own disk and never touch a chat.

  4. The sit-in on your first stream

    One live session on your first stream, scheduled on the intake. I pull the mic and you watch the cue land in your prompter. I type a phone number into your chat and you watch it come out masked. I start a song in the room and you watch it go silent the second the stream starts. You keep the OBS profile, the scenes, every overlay, the chat server, the clip pipeline and the recording.

Straight answers, including the limits.

Whose Restream account is it?

Yours. Restream is the fan-out and it is their product on their plan. I set it up inside your account and point your OBS at it. How many platforms you can hit at once is set by the Restream plan you choose, not by me.

What does TikTok need?

LIVE access on your TikTok account, which TikTok grants, not me. The chat reader uses an unofficial connector that can break when TikTok changes its side. There is no way to write replies into TikTok chat, so replies to TikTok viewers are spoken on air.

What about Facebook?

Facebook Live goes out through Restream to your profile or your Page. Facebook does not expose live comments on either, so Facebook chat is not in the merged rail automatically. LinkedIn and X ride Restream the same way, and X live needs a Premium account.

What does YouTube need?

A YouTube Data API key on your Google account for reading chat, and a one-time OAuth grant if you want replies written into YouTube's own chat column. YouTube's daily quota is finite, so write-backs are capped per run.

What machine and software?

OBS Studio 28 or newer with the built-in websocket on. Windows for the process-priority manager and the one-button check. A local transcription install for captions, so no audio leaves your machine. A voice service such as ElevenLabs only if you want spoken replies; the cards on screen need no voice at all.

Can it show how much someone tipped?

No. The card shows a first name and the platform. The amount is never rendered or spoken, and that is enforced in the code.

What is not included?

Restream, YouTube, TikTok and voice-service fees, which are on your accounts. Cameras, mic and lights. A Discord room with a stage and a live-chat channel, which is The Room. Both, wired and run together, is the studio solution.

The limits, plainly.

Written here rather than discovered on your first night.

  • Restream is your account on your plan. How many platforms go at once is set by the plan you choose, not by me.
  • TikTok needs LIVE access on your account, which TikTok grants. Its chat reader uses an unofficial connector that can break when TikTok changes its side, and there is no way to write replies into TikTok chat.
  • Facebook, LinkedIn and X go out through Restream but do not expose readable live comments, so their chat is not in the rail automatically. X live needs a Premium account.
  • OBS Studio 28 or newer on Windows. A local transcription install for captions, so no audio leaves your machine.
  • The tip card shows a first name and the platform. The amount is never rendered or spoken, and that is enforced in the code.
  • Restream, YouTube, TikTok and voice-service fees are on your accounts. Cameras, mic and lights are yours.

After you buy: the intake.

Ten minutes, once, and it is the only form. The receipt sends you here. Everything the build needs is on it, including the slot for the handover sit-in, so nothing waits on a call.

Accounts you already hold

Ninety minutes, online. Weekdays 10:00 to 16:00 Eastern land fastest.

Goes with The Room That Runs Itself and The Studio Solution. Every engine on this site is built to plug into the others without a rebuild. Every price, one page.
