VST Connect Screenshare

Yesterday I was doing a VST Connect session with my producer friend, and since we both do production I found myself wanting to share my screen so he could see the vocal edits I was making and other adjustments. So I used Skype to screen share but it was interfering alot with Cubase. Could you guys at Steinberg add a Screenshare feature to VST Connect that allows the end user (Vocalist/Producer) to see the session screen. I think that would create a even better collaboration experience and put Cubase even further ahead of the game. And seeing that you would intergrate it through Cubase (Screenshare), it would run alot smoother together with VST Connect.

Just want to say I’ve used Cubase for 10 years, and absolutely love the software and enhancements. You guys do great work and for a producer like myself who makes beats, engineers, the whole nine yards, Cubase has been awesome for me.

I’ve been looking into this as I do one on one sessions with clients that often want access to viewing the session. A great workaround is to use the latest OBS and enbable Virtual Cam. Set up OBS scenens as you normally would. I have options for a full screen, screen with video in lower thirds, and a full screen video. I then use the OBS Virtual Cam as my video input into VST Connect instead of a webcam or physical camera. Saves you having to transmit two streams via connect and skype simultaneously.
