Question / Help Audio Problems on Zoom/OBS Combination

[Ryan Burger]

I'm not getting any guest audio coming through from my Zoom.Us application that I'm doing a browser Window capture of the Zoom window.

By that I mean that anyone that isn't in my office with me, (the remote guests on the broadcast), aren't being heard on the stream or by the OBS software. What am I doing wrong?

But I am able to hear them just fine to converse.

Window capture is video only. You need to add a separate audio source in order to get sound. There is a stickied thread about recording sound on MacOS:

You'll need third party software like SoundFlower, Loopback or other to create a virtual device to send your default output to, and then either use OBS to monitor that device so you can hear it, or use another third party app to do it (LineIn).

I need zoom help please... I feel like I have done everything that I have read and I cant get the sound to come through. I did download the ishowu audio capture. any help would be greatly appreciated. For the audio device section i have selected zoom (as well as other options) and nothing is working. Am I doing something wrong? any advice to get this working would greatly be appreciated.

Screen shot #1: I can't tell what you've tried to do there. You've set up a microphone as part of an aggregate... output device?

Screen shot #2: You've now selected that aggregate device as your system default. Since the Yeti can't produce sound, this basically just makes iShowU your default device, which is fine.

Screen shot #3: You've selected your mic and iShowU as devices in OBS, which makes me wonder why you bothered with the aggregate in #1, and why you didn't just set the system default device to iShowU in #2.
