Question / Help Audio and Some Video (Need Help)

Greetings everyone! I wanted to address an issue that I have had with OBS Studio which really bugs me and I can't seem to figure out why it's happening. On my old pc, I was able to record fine, but on my new pc, everything sounds sort of distorted/muffled. Also if anyone has better video settings I can use it would be great! I have linked a pastebin below with one of my most recent logs. Also have my PC specs if they're needed.

Thanks in advance!

PC Specs:
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1070 8GB
CPU: Intel Core i7 7700K @ 4.20Ghz
Memory: 16GB of DDR4

I think that's it for pc specs.

(EDITED)
(New Pastebin): https://pastebin.com/kZYFefY6

Edit: That pastebin is new and it comes from the regular OBS. Also, wanted to note that it's the in-game sound that is Muffled, not my microphone. I also made sure all the correct sound drivers were installed... and changed the Hz for Microphone, but nothing changed.

Your log won't show us the complete picture of your audio equipment setup in your system. The only thing that it shows is your Corsair wireless headphone and mic (I have the same headphones). Audio problems can come from anywhere, and it doesn't necessarily have to be related to OBS Studio at all, but rather, improper setup.

I would suggest the following:
- Download and install all current audio drivers for your system. Do not proceed until you do this.
- Reboot system
- Open up Windows Sound
- Set the Corsair headphones as the primary default playback device
- Set the Corsair mic as the primary default recording device
- Right click and run down your audio list and disable all other audio playback and recording devices. Don't leave them in a Ready state. Just disable them.
- If you got speakers, disable and mute. You don't want speaker output being picked up by a live mic as it will cause echo.
- Turn off your webcam mic as well, it too shouldn't pick up any audio as it will cause echo.
- Set the Corsair mic and headphone to 48kHz DVD quality in the advanced tab (my Corsair driver wont let me set to 44.1kHz).
- Set OBS Audio Sampling rate to 48khz to match

Now test this specific audio setup.
