My Facebook Chain
In the first AGF open mic, I used a Blue Yeti USB for guitar and vocals. Results were OK once I switched from Google Chrome to the new version of Microsoft Edge. (Chrome gave me more interruptions and stuttering and worse sound. I found Edge to be a better browser for Facebook Live than Chrome. I tried Firefox but was unable to get all of the settings resolved to have it work.)
Last AGF open mic, For guitar, the chain was K&K Ultra Pure Mini--->Pure XLR preamp--->Yamaha MG10XU--->Behringer Ucontrol UCA222 USB--->Computer--->OBS Studio (free software)--->Microsoft Edge--->Stream Key option on Facebook Live. For vocals, the chain was Blue Encore 100 dynamic--->Yamaha MG10XU--->Behringer Ucontrol UCA222 USB--->Computer--->OBS Studio (free software)--->Stream Key option on Facebook Live. I probably spent 4 hours off and on testing levels, settings, and tone for guitar and vocal mix using Facebook live "only me" option until I got what I thought was a fairly good result, much better than the USB Mic only option that I previously used. I think the real find in this process for me was the OBS Studio software which seems to give a better interface to Facebook live than the "camera" option in Facebook live. The sequence to go live is to have OBS running and ready to start streaming to Facebook Live. The option on Facebook live to Use Stream Key with OBS requires that you select Use Stream Key then copy the stream key found under Live Stream Setup into OBS. Since the only thing I'm using OBS for is the Facebook live stream process, I've not had to add the stream key to OBS other than the first time. Once you select Use Stream Key in Facebook Live, there will be a pop up window that says "Waiting for live video." When you select "Start Streaming" in OBS, Facebook Live will then show the camera and allow you to "Go Live." As with any other options, make sure you have everything ready to go, all cables plugged in, etc. Make sure that Facebook live is going to where you want it, in this case AGF Open Mic, then Go Live on Facebook should get you going.

My Set-up...if it works lol
Me  Ibanez AW54CEOPN AKG Perception 200 Condenser Mic (Using it for the Room..ie guitar and vocal). AKG into Mic Mechanic for Reverb and Presence..Can't use Vocal corrections because of using the AKG for both Vocal and guitar, It confuses it and warbles the sound.. Mic Mechanic into a Focusrite 2i2 3rd gen From there in my Computer I'm going to use the freeware program OBS to stream to Facebook because going directly into Facebook was causing stuttering/cutting out.. Just thought this might help also for people thinking about doing this... I wouldn't be scared to use a USB mic I have but thought a little reverb would help my vocals LOL So I had to add interfaces Good Luck.....
