What type of output does Dante Via provide when balancing levels of different sources?

Dante Via is designed to facilitate audio routing between various sources and destinations on a network. When dealing with balancing levels of different audio sources, achieving a coherent output is crucial. The mixed output from all sources allows users to integrate various audio feeds seamlessly, blending them into a single output stream. This is particularly beneficial in scenarios where multiple audio sources need to be combined for monitoring, broadcasting, or recording.

By providing a mixed output, Dante Via simplifies the process of audio management, allowing for easy control over the overall sound without necessarily needing to adjust each individual source separately. This capability is essential for applications like live sound reinforcement or studio recordings, where balanced audio from numerous inputs is required for a cohesive listening experience.

In contrast, raw audio output would not manage or balance the levels, while separate outputs or distinct output paths would increase complexity and limit the efficiency of using multiple sources. Thus, the mixed output from all sources is the most fitting choice for effectively balancing levels within the Dante Via framework.
