Sorry for the short video clip but hopefully this will give you an idea of what im hearing. Tried switch and ps5 and the audio sounds the same from both.
Okay. I'm not familiar with what it's supposed to sound like, so I can imagine that that *could* be right. No obvious distortion or cutting out.
Signal path goes from hdmi switch dock into hdmi input on capture card, then usb into the laptop. Video Capture device USB selected on OBS then audio selected to digital audio interface USB Audio. Monitoring and capture on also.
That's not the entire signal path.
What does Windows do to it between the capture device and OBS?
What filters does OBS have on it?
What does every individual thing in the entire chain do to the signal? Go from from the game software itself to the speakers, counting every painstakingly detailed thing that there is or might be. (good motivation to avoid a Rube Goldberg rig too)
For context, I built this rig:
Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

That's 100% pure analog except for the hard drive recorder on the far right side.
I'm looking for a complete, unbroken signal path through your rig, just like I can trace a complete, unbroken signal path through mine. Digital audio is harder to trace than analog, but to find the sort of problem that you have, you kinda have to.
