Are you watching your stream at the same time? If so mute it also if you have a mic on your camera mute that too.

Check settings > Audio. What is your Audio Monitoring device set to?

Check Edit > Advanced Audio Properties.

Are your sources set to Monitor?

Okay well you are getting you mic input audio doubling up somewhere or it could be a faulty microphone. The room you are recording in might need some sound proofing done also . I would try using a different mic first then if the problem is still there try putting a large object in the room like a mattress against a wall.

The thingis that i have the problem since half a year and in this time i changed to 3 different mic's. And in my room there is no echo.



And in the YouTube video that is not my voice. It was a mate in Discord.

That might be your problem. If your headphones are your default output, and OBS is set to send its monitoring output to the default, then it will echo.

If you're going to use the Monitor feature to listen, your monitor device cannot be the default device, or OBS will record its own monitor output.

Either set default and monitor to be separate devices, or turn off monitoring on the devices that are echoing in Edit > Advanced Audio Properties.

Windows often changes the default output device during startup, and this will affect OBS setup. So it's possible to not touch something and for nothing to change for a long time, and then one day, the default devices have altered. This is why I usually suggest disabling all devices in Settings > Audio and add devices directly to Scenes as audio sources, and copy them to scenes as required rather than depending on an audio sources set in Settings > Audio to be present in all scenes.
