YO! Brand new to this, please bare with me.

So I've finally set up everything for my stream, but have a small issue (title). My voice is about a second or more later than my desktop audio (this can be a problem if i'm singing along to a song lol), and I'm not too sure how to fix this. Please in the simplest way possible can someone give me detailed step-by-step directions on what to do?

Not sure if this is relevant but I'd also like my stream to have about a 30 second delay. I will paypal someone 5 bucks if you help me figure it out! Thanks guys.

I believe you can use the Mic Sync Offset in Settings->Audio, and apply a negative value.

Of course, if you use a webcam your voice will not be sync'd with the cam at that point, and there's no way to get a cam into sync with gameplay if it incurs a delay. Most just have to force themselves to not sing/hum along with in-game music. Very annoying, and has been a requested feature for a couple of years.

14:42:06: Using auxilary audio input: Headset Microphone (ASTRO MixAmp Pro )
14:42:06: Mic time offset: 1500

Uh, yeah. You're already using a positive offset for your mic to compensate for the Elgato delay. Just lower it a bit until it matches the desktop audio.


Stream delay is in the Settings as well. Just look around, as I don't remember where, but it's pretty clearly labelled.
