Setup Configuration

Go to MickFX Base in your SAMMI Bridge and follow the instructions. It will set up everything you need for my effects. You’ll choose between a webcam, VTuber, or neither, and it’ll automatically create the necessary scenes for your setup.

→
Alpha Scene: Holds your webcam or VTuber source.
→
Frame Scene: If you’re using a webcam frame, this is where it goes. If not, this won’t get created.
→
AudioFX Scene: Keeps audio effects separated from your main scene to avoid clutter.

Name Changer/Fixer

If you rename a source in OBS, SAMMI tracks the changed name and adjusts it in its interface. You can also manually update names if needed. It’s a lifesaver if you accidentally mess up your setup!

Scene Management

Remove unnecessary scenes to keep your setup clutter-free. For example, if you don’t need a webcam frame, you can delete the Frame Scene. You can also switch to Screen Only mode if you decide not to use a webcam, or re-add your webcam scene if you’re already in Screen Only mode.
