Question / Help Audio ducking with new mixer?

Is it possible to use a combination of audio filters to automatically duck desktop or any other audio sources when the mic gets input?

That way when I talk, games sounds lower, external music lowers, notifications lower, etc?

Like using noise gate to trigger something?

Beyond the normal Windows ducking function?

Yes. That function is only activated when recieving a skype call or something, but I would like to know if I can automatically duck a certain track in obs (capture card audio, desktop sounds, etc) when another track (mic) recieves input.

This way I can stream with my game volume 100% but when I talk it goes down to 50% while my voice stays at 100%

I don't believe this is possible without the aid of third-party software, but constantly fluctuating audio levels sound (hah) annoying. IMO you'd be better off balancing the levels so that the game is never loud enough to drown out your voice, but still loud enough for people to hear what's going on.
