Audio cuts out at approx. 50 - 60 mins. Record and stream

Hi,

I'm using OBS to stream and record DJ sets using Rekordbox and a DDJ-FLX4. the FLX4 is outputting audio to Master + Blackhole (2 ch., virtual sound card) so the headphone feed is not picked up by OBS. Everything's working, except the audio cuts out while recording at around the 50 - 60 minute mark consistently. It starts getting choppy (sounds like dropping "frames" of audio) and eventually goes completely silent. Video is unaffected. After looking through forums to see if others had similar issues, I thought it might be an audio buffer issue, and under Settings -> Audio, toggled Monitoring Device from Default to Blackhole 2ch, as well as checking the Low Latency Audio Buffering Mode. None of those seems to have an impact on recording and do not fix the dropped audio at ~50 - 60 minutes issue. I've alo tried uninstalling and re-installing (dragging OBS to Trash and emptying Trash) to no effect. However, that does not revert my settings to default, so not sure it's deleting all files upon uninstalling.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I had a similar problem recently when recording an interview. Everything was fine till about 50 minutes then it started happening, the audio in this case was cutting out intermittently (stuttering), but recovered after 40 seconds but would repeat again. This happens for the rest of the video making it unuseable because when I edited out the problem bits the viewers wouldn't get the full flow of the conversation. Initially thought it was the wireless lav I used due to cold new batteries, and maybe the distance between the radios. But wireless lavs introduce static noise if this is the case.
