Reading directly from prompter software on your laptop makes the reading more noticeable due to the closeness. There are cheap beam splitter mirrors that work with ipads, more expensive ones that work with laptops. A second person can record with a phone and external mic via trrs cable. That’s what we did with our ceo.

I would shoot slog2 or 3 (your pref) with a color checker reference shot for better and more adjustable color accuracy.

The High profile delivers enhanced quality over main. The tradeoff is it’s more complex, which means it is harder for devices to decode. Back in the day you may have had to use baseline for certain devices and main was used for SD digital broadcasts. When the High profile was developed, it became recommended for HD applications. Over the years, more and more devices are able to decode this profile.
The encoding level that is selected dictates the choices you’ll have for settings like max resolution, decoding speed, frame rate, bit rate, etc. For example, one of the main differences in 4.2 versus 4.1 is a doubling of the maximum decoding speed.
In either case, just double-check the constraints of the whatever the decoding device will be. I assume you are using Adobe Media Encoder and they have many presets to choose from that have optimal settings. Or, if you bring in a clip for compression and select match source, they will set the profile and level. However, I notice it’ll usually default to main and 4.1 but I’ll bump it up to high for many of my project needs/requirements.

I haven’t used it and it may be overkill for your specific instance, but the Loupedeck creative tool is pretty popular and compatible with Premiere.

The only other suggestion I have is to reset the preferences and plugin cache. To do this simultaneously, hold down Shift-Alt (Win) or Shift-Opt (Mac) while the application starts. Then release the keys when the splashscreen is up.

I assume you checked the Preferences>Audio Hardware to make sure the default output didn’t get changed to another setting?
Otherwise, always worth trying this trick that works for older versions of Premiere:
Click on the hamburger icon by the sequence name in your timeline and choose Reveal Sequence in Project. Copy the sequence. Then paste it back in the project panel and rename it so you can tell the difference. Open it up and you should be able to hear audio when playing this new sequence.————————————————-

A quick google search found this at istock: https://www.istockphoto.com/video/animated-facebook-live-streaming-with-mixed-emotion-icon-come-from-bottom-to-top-for-gm1160196531-317503118
But this looks easy enough to construct yourself for maximum flexibility. You could even take a screenshot on your phone as a reference. If you want to flood the video with likes and emojis, you could setup a particle emitter.

I have a similar issue with 4K60p footage off my Promise Pegasus Raid Tbolt. How is your RAID configured? I’m considering getting another RAID configured as RAID0 for speed and keep my RAID5 setup for redundancy (as I’ve had to rebuild from a lost drive several times and this has saved me).

Brightcove may have a solution for you. They just rolled out some new offerings, so it may be worth a quick call to them. They are responsive and you’ll know in a day if they can help or not.

Premiere can support a lot more than 20 audio tracks. If dragging media into your timeline isn’t working as you wish, just add the empty tracks first. When you right click in the video track section and select Add Track, it will add a video track. When you do this in the audio track section, it adds an audio track. In either area, if you select Add Tracks instead of Add Track, you can enter the number of video and audio tracks you wish to add and where they are placed. You may find it easier to create the tracks first when dealing with so many tracks and then just dragging your media into them where needed.
