Just a suggestion, can you add a "dock" audio monitor function for the number 1 Googled- free tts auto chat for streamers
(not posting website since the spam detection system is overly sensitive about it)

The new free tts auto chat readers are making you go thru the obs dock system....

so i can hear the reader without overloading my system, crashing my stream by keeping a web browser open.
I prefer to keep web browser in low memory mode.(web browser sources)

Hi there - not sure if this is the support channel, but here goes: We've been using the Audio Monitor filter for 5 years now without a hitch, directing a video's audio source to a separate digital OUTPUT device in our Win10 machine. Our primary OBS INPUT used to be from a mix off our house sound system via a USB audio interface (actually a Zoom H6). Everything was working fine. However, we recently replaced our aging house mixer with a spanking new Allen&Heath Qu-5, and now our primary INPUT to OBS is directly via USB (current ASIO Windows drivers). Now, though, all the main stream audio output is also going to out via that same USB back into the house as well as the newly re-configured Audio Monitor output - so, we're getting the main stream audio back into the house even if the Audio Monitor filter isn't on a source. Is this expected behaviour? Do I need to start understanding Tracks, so I can still treat the USB OUTPUT to the Qu-5 separately from the main stream output?

Hi! Unfortunately, the amazing Audio Monitor plugin stopped working with OBS 32.0.0-beta2 (Mac). Hopefully this can be fixed soon. Thanks a lot for your great work!

@Jazzcrack it looks like your OBS is trying to load an old version of audio monitor. In version 0.10.0 obs_frontend_add_dock was removed, but the error indicates it still is trying to use it

@Exeldro Thanks so much for the quick reply and pointing me in the right direction! You nailed it—it was indeed an old version of the Audio Monitor plugin lingering around. I mistakenly assumed the new version would just overwrite the old one during installation. My bad! I’ve updated it properly now, and everything is running smoothly again.

Really appreciate your help and the awesome work you’re doing with this plugin. Keep it up, and thanks a million!

The plugins don't show to remove it.
Okay I found it. Done it by opening OBS and clicking show settings folder. Shows the exact same location, but actually shows the files I was searching for. So strange. Now working. Now just to fix all the other ones that don't work since jobs 32 update.

Hi there! Excited to utilize this plugin but I can't seem to get it working. The data and DLLs are in the correct place.

I've downloaded the latest version of the plugin (0.10.0) for Windows, and I'm using OBS 31.0.1 as I understand version 32+ isn't compatible with the plugin yet.

When I go to add a Filter to any audio source, the plugin doesn't show up. Not sure if I'm missing something, or if there's a compatibility issue. Thanks!

@w4tchmaker version 0.10.0 requires OBS 31.1.0 or higher. I f want it on OBS 31.0.1 you need an older version. OBS 32 should work fine with version 0.10.0 of the plugin
Thank you so much for the quick reply!

Good news, OBS now sees the plugin and I can add it! However, I can't seem to get the routing right.

My goal is for all "Desktop Audio" to route through my mic interface so that web apps (Zencastr, Google Meet) will hear desktop audio as part of the microphone input.

When I set this up as such (below) and the Monitor volume is at 100%, I get a terrible feedback loop - so I *think* the signal is coming through. When I reduce this down to 50% or 70% everything sounds clean again.

However, the desktop audio (which is registering in OBS) does not get "heard" by the web apps at all. I do not see or hear any signal coming through the interface from the Desktop source.

I'm sure I'm missing something here!

One other thought- my Focusrite interface has 4 inputs but I'm only using 1 for the mic. I'm wondering if there's something I'd need to config in the Focsurite software in order for the Filter to route through the "correct" input?

I ticked the "mono" box in the Filter here, but that didn't seem to affect anything.
