Hello, my desktop audio sounds very "shallow", and I can't find a way to fix it. It sounds as though it's being processed a whole bunch of times, or like it's being recorded from a smartphone microphone. I've posted ages ago trying to find a way to solve it but there were no solutions that worked for me.

I will leave a log. I will also leave a simple clip of what my OBS recordings sound like for you to compare with a YouTube video of what it SHOULD sound like (CS:GO Desert Eagle sounds)

Oh and btw, for some potential bonus help... would anyone know how to fix the issue with the recording being "pushed to the left"? I play CS:GO on 4:3 aspect ratio and it seems to mess with OBS a little bit. Any pro tips regarding better recordings with that sort of thing would be much appreciated! Along with any help on improving the multiple second black screen that appears after alt-tabbing!

Ran the log through the analyzer, it mentioned sample rate mismatches and GPU overload... I tried setting my headphones to 48k Hz earlier and it had no effect, and I'm not sure why my GPU is overloading... it's an RTX 3090 and I'm only attempting to record at 60 FPS, nothing too crazy I don't think? Guidance would be appreciated.

I've tried disabling all Alienware (I have Alienware headphones and PC) audio effects and equalizers, still get the same bad audio on local recordings. Can someone please assist with this issue?
