Great tutorial that was well worded and easy to follow! I've been meaning to do this for my stream for a long time, but have never found the energy to do so since there was always so much clutter with external applications and such. This method was a lot better though! Thank you :3
11 months later - This is still the best video on this topic, thank you so much. Super simple, super straight forward. A blind man could follow these instructions. THANK YOU.
I tried following the first 20 sec, until i realized it was a sum up. What a fantastic idea! One just knows what the vid covers, no bs. Love it! Subbed
after watching tons of videos about how to make audio right in OBS ... FINALLY A USEFULL VIDEO MADE ME UNDERSTAND ALL MY MISTAKES AND LITERALY FIXED ALL MY ISSUES WITHIN 7 MINUTES! THANKS KEEP THE GOOD WORK
dude. someone legitimately give this guy his million views. this is 10x easier than VB banana and is in-built with the OBS we all know and love. holy shit dude thank you for the guide. any aspiring streamer that wants to listen to tunes but doesn't want the copyright problems this is your video right here. golden standard for tutorials right here my GOD i can't praise you enough.
i have a question though! my alerts from streamlabs don't sound off on stream. so when someone follows or makes a TTS donation, no sound is made cause there's nothing to "capture" for it? im not sure how it works @@GreenBoxMedia
So after I create a special scene and call it Audio Control, and add all my applications, should I copy it to all my scenes? Or with only Audio control is enough for it to work? and What if I switch scenes?
If I´m using dual PC with NDI this can be done in the streaming PC? Or I´m forced to do the audio control in the gaming PC? And also does this gives input lag as the cam does when gaming or not?
For this to work OBS needs to run and stream on the system that is generating the sounds. So your gaming PC. For dual streaming setups check out the dual streaming PC setup I did on my channel.
im noticing it still picks up on my desktop audio as I use the same headphones for gaming/music. Will this effect anything? ~From using microsoft edge as my music platform Thanks in advance :D Edit: The fix to my issue seems to be at the start of the video! Hope it helps anyone reading
Much love for the simple walkthrough. Clean, precise, step by step. Loved it. Thought I knew what I was doing but man that Audio Control scene saves me so much time now. Much love brother!
This has worked amazingly; however, I keep getting told that there's some audio distortion at random times of the stream, lasting about 30 seconds each time. Have you heard about this? And how do I fix it? Thank you!
Usually has to do with the sample rate of your audio device. Probably just something that did not get figured out completely yet. As this feature is still relatively new / Beta.
I've had this issue myself, only happening with my music for some reason. Voice and effects etc stay fine. For this reason I had to revert to capturing all my audio at once. Hope this gets fixed, I've been told it's an issue in Windows. My audio sample rates etc are all good, been trying to fix it for weeks haha.
SLOW DOWN HOLY SHIT. Like thank you so much for the help but DAAAAAMN Edit: I watched the whole thing just tried to learn from the first 10 seconds of the video. My b
Great instructional video! Not a lot of fluff (especially with the 15 second intro) and still clear and easy to follow! I was also convinced to subscribe with the little joke on discord light mode. One question though, is there an advantage to putting game audio in your audio scene vs just doing it in a scene related to a specific game?
I don't know you...but I love you, thank you so much, so many videos out there, telling me to download this, do that, do this..so complicated, yours is simple, THANKS!
Thank goodness you explained this in detail and at a reasonable speed. Nearly every video I've watched missed critical steps or they just clicked through them fast or just said nothing about them at all. I appreciate it a lot! Awesome video!
You have the best tutorials! Will this work if I just add/copy the Beta Audio Capture for Spotify to my existing scene? I didn't want to make everything again if I could avoid it, but if I have to I will rather than use Voicemeeter, as it messed up my sound settings something horrible. Had to uninstall it cause I wasn't able to get sound to my physical outputs anymore after using it. :s
My guy.... I've watched a lot of videos and I've had so many audio issues, but your videos are sooooo clean and clear!! The to the point and leaving announcements for the end is top fucking tier. 🤘🏻🖤✨️
Great video. Nice and 'simple' (if obs can ever be described as simple) Added to my OBS playlist Watched it while my phone was in do not disturb but the auto generated captions were enough. Guess what I'll be doing with a new "obs tutorial" collection tomorrow Cheers 👍
it seems that this only works if you are livestreaming to twitch and VODS. If you are live streaming to TH-cam as well, the audio music would still go through and have to follow different settings for that. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thank you for the awesome video, I have yet to see if I did it right- but almost all the music I use on stream is Neffex, and despite the copyright free nature of them I was getting lots of warnings that would never have led to issues- yet still were frustrating to see every day. Thank you very much for the awesome awesome video :)
Now all they need to do is allow for multracks to the VODs so when they are downloaded they can have audio channels separated also, so that they can be remotely stored on twitch until needed
Hey, i followed your video exactly but when i do it my recordings/vods dont receive ANY audio except my mic, is there a fix for it? cant find anything online
Hello! nice guide i just have one question, how can i add an audio source for like Triggerfyre where i have my audio redeemables?, because that audio plays in obs and it seems i can't add obs to the audio sources with thise method :/, before that i was using a plugin called "wincaptureaudio" and i could add obs there but it just wasn't very stable, obs would close every now and then so i stopped using it and opted to use the feature in obs. Anyways thanks for your time ^^
I'm having an issue, any help would be appreciated. So i'm talking specifically with Valorant, because everything else is fine. Just the in game voice chat is not being picked up, so i'm not sure how to go about getting that captured too. The game itself is being picked up fine though.
check if there is a second source from Valorant that is voicechat only or if there is a setting like this in the game itself. Probably Valo uses a different audio output for the chat than the game.
@@jj-cr2ed i just downloaded 'win capture audio' it's literally the same thing, but because Val uses two audio things, the vc in game is a background window, so the beta obs thing doesn't work with it
hey mate i tried doing this and i have lost the twitch notification sounds and the redeemable channel points. are these just on desktop audio or do you know if they can be added as a application audio??
when i do this, the new audio tracks stay inactive and do not come up in the audio mixer. when opening advanced audio settings, it shows the new tracks as inactive, and desktop audio & mic as active.?? edit: i fixed this by switching out of studio mode in the bottom right of OBS
Thanks for the video! Quick question though... What if the box is all greyed out? I can see it, but I can't use it or click it for some reason. I am already on twitch as the option but it won't let me check anything? What gives?
hey! idk why but it doesnt work for me, i've delete everything and reinstalled, did what you said but it won't detect any audio, the green bar won't move
Hey! I want to seperate audio for my VODs aswell to be available to play music from spotify. But I don't use obs, I am using twitch studio... Is this possible to do if ur not streaming through obs?
Omg is there any way just to make it so the game audio auto detects which game is being used instead of having to add 65 inputs seperately? Seems absurd.
@@GreenBoxMedia well I guess I’ll just leave one “game” audio source and just change it every single time I go live I guess. Kind of annoying but eh that’s ok.
I'm still having audio spill over issues. (I know that's not the technical name for it). Anytime I use Spotify, the music gets picked up on my Desktop audio. My microphone is muted, and these audios are on separate tracks.
This was great help for me and thank you so much. I do have a question @GreenBox, how do I add my sound alerts from both sound alerts extension and twitch alerts extensions? can you help? Never mind I read your FAQ and there was the answer, open sound alerts from each browser source in OBS and enable " Control Audio via OBS " works like a charm
ปีที่แล้ว
Hey man I don't see the Application Audio Capture feature, and yes my OBS is updated. Not seeing it but seeing the (BETA) text besides it in the video I figured I'd install whatever the latest OBS beta is but it still isn't there. edit: Downgraded my OBS to 28.0.3 (the version shown in the video) and still not there.
It's a great video, but it won't work for quite a lot of creators. See the problem is, your Spotify goes through Desktop Audio as well. So do alerts, blerps and similar stuff. This means basically that you don't have to make this many audio sources, you need in-game audio (for all of the games) and Discord if you want it. Your music will be part of the Desktop Audio anyways, and you will have to mute it in track 2 alongside all of the other alerts and blerps.
If you use a desktop / audio output capture you can not seperaten sounds Coming through desktop without the need for additional software like Voicemeeter. The only way is to get all your audio sources into your OBS using seperate inputs. Including telling OBS to manage Audio for all your browser sources like Alerts as well.
Great Video but 1 question I have is how do i keep my sound for stream stuff such as bits, donations, channel points etc. If I use headset audio or desktop it will double all the other applications audio
i was in discord chat and had my mic i use to talk in vc and than my stream mic but when inused my stream mic to talk to chat the people i was pkaying with heard what i was saying how do i fix this so its seperate chat
This video was very helpful. I do have 1 question…how would I utilize the twitch VOD if I’m using. A GoXLR? I have the GoXLR plugged into my gaming PC and the XLR runs to the stream PC. So all audio is coming from the GoXLR. Since I only have 1 audio source in OBS (in this case, which is the GoXLR) is it even possible?
Out of all of these videos I've watched, no one mentions how to make sure your sound alerts still work. I've done this process over and over and every time my sound alerts don't work.
Well sound alerts should not interfere with this. If you alerts are done using a browser source they will just play as they normally would. If you use an external application for the alerts, you have to add the application.
i've not been able to make this work. Followed a ton of tutorials, all showing the same thing. But my recordings still have the audio that I unchecked in the Advanced Audio Properties :(
Any ideas on how to use TH-cam Music app (which is basically a Chrome browser. Not a standalone app like Spotify) with the Twitch VOD feature of OBS? If I route YT Music to channel 2. Then anything I share via Chrome browser (like YT videos) will not be in the VOD. :( YT needs a dedicated app!!
.....Is this for windows?? Cause I'm on a Mac and I'm not seeing the "application audio catcher" option in the menu.....:( Please don't tell me this isn't a possibility on Mac
Hey Greenbox! quick question, should I delete "desktop audio"? I think it was automatically there when i downloaded OBS. im not sure if it will double the audio or not
could you please tell me how I would be able to still capture my sound alerts for my stream? I use stream elements. I'm not sure how I would add them in there as an audio capture, like what would I add in to capture the alerts?
I am using the Wave 3 mic and the software that comes with it. I am wondering if it will do the same thing or if I should just not use the software and only use this built in OBS option. Thanks for the great video.
I would do the combination. Use the wave link for everything that goes to the vod and OBS for everything that does not go to the vod. In other words put music on a track I'm wave link that only goes to your headphones but not the stream mix and add the same music to OBS for the live track vod track. Here is a basic wave link tutorial: th-cam.com/video/qWtTZdtCR7g/w-d-xo.html
Is Twitch VOD track only for Twitch? What about TH-cam, Kick, Rumble and other streaming platforms? I'd like to avoid using voicemeeter for other platforms if possible. Also Great video but there is one thing I didn't see in this video. What if I want to keep my spotify or game audio at a lower volume for myself but I want it to be louder for the stream audience? This setup doesn't allow me to keep the audio levels separate. If I try to lower spotify volume for myself on spotify for some reason in OBS the volume meter decreases for the whole stream.
This is a twitch exclusive feature no other platform uses this. If you want to mix with different volumes you will 100% need additional software like Voicemeeter.
Yes, using OSX. 😅 The audio capture is only working on Windows at the moment. For Mac you would use a third party virtual audio mixer like sound flower.

*Does this work on Streamlabs OBS?*
No
*Do I require Voicemeeeter?*
No
*I don't see the Twitch VOD Setting*
Check the video chapters
*Can I use copyrighted music with this?*
Legally speaking, no, however because there won't be any music in the VOD the chance of a DMCA takedown is reduced. It does however not change anything about the Livestreaming of copyrighted music.
*How can I capture alert sounds?*
Assuming your alerts are coming in through browser sources.
Open the browser source setting of the corresponding alert and enable 'Control audio via OBS'.
There's a setting for it on Streamlabs now 👍
butttt does it work now?
My alerts are all silent now, turning on the "control through OBS" did nothing

Welcome to Quick Tips!
So after I create a special scene and call it Audio Control, and add all my applications, should I copy it to all my scenes? Or with only Audio control is enough for it to work? and What if I switch scenes?
You would add it to every other scene that needs audio.

If I´m using dual PC with NDI this can be done in the streaming PC? Or I´m forced to do the audio control in the gaming PC? And also does this gives input lag as the cam does when gaming or not?

As long as they are browser sources you simply tell them to have audio controller by OBS in the browser source properties
Awesome video and knowledge, cheers from Brazil! Tu é foda! :D

Thanks so much. This is very helpful for me.
This video was very helpful. I do have 1 question…how would I utilize the twitch VOD if I’m using. A GoXLR?
I have the GoXLR plugged into my gaming PC and the XLR runs to the stream PC. So all audio is coming from the GoXLR. Since I only have 1 audio source in OBS (in this case, which is the GoXLR) is it even possible?
I don't have a go xlr to verify. Your only chance would be to separate out the tracks in the goxlr and send them separated to the streaming PC.
Out of all of these videos I've watched, no one mentions how to make sure your sound alerts still work. I've done this process over and over and every time my sound alerts don't work.

how can i make an audio source active it is saying inactive on my side??
hands down the best video on this topic, thanks for this
Is Twitch VOD track only for Twitch? What about TH-cam, Kick, Rumble and other streaming platforms? I'd like to avoid using voicemeeter for other platforms if possible. Also Great video but there is one thing I didn't see in this video. What if I want to keep my spotify or game audio at a lower volume for myself but I want it to be louder for the stream audience? This setup doesn't allow me to keep the audio levels separate. If I try to lower spotify volume for myself on spotify for some reason in OBS the volume meter decreases for the whole stream.
This is a twitch exclusive feature no other platform uses this. If you want to mix with different volumes you will 100% need additional software like Voicemeeter.
thanks actually helpfull video

Glad you liked it, and welcome to Quick Tips :)
Perfect video! 🙏
Thank you 🙌
I work OBS from my Mac and I tried adding spotify and it never shows up even though I have the window open. Am I doing something wrong?
Yes, using OSX. 😅
The audio capture is only working on Windows at the moment. For Mac you would use a third party virtual audio mixer like sound flower.
I never usually comment but.. I’ve been trying to figure this out forever. You made it so simple to understand. THANK YOU!! 💖
You're welcome!
