First.. I love OBS. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and every core of my cpu. Thank you.

Issue: Seems like OBS does audio ducking on my game's audio when I activate the microphone. Is this true? and if so, it seems like my game's audio stays very low after I've deactivated the microphone. But heres the thing... it only happens in certain games.. Outlast for example.

I'm on Win7 64 ultimate using this usb headset http://www.roccat.org/Products/Gaming-Sound/ROCCAT-Kave-5-1/ outputted from onboard Realtek ac889.

Again, ty for OBS. I find it to be fucking awesome.

Make sure audio ducking is deactivated under Windows. Thats in the Sound settings on the last tab "Communications".
I normally set it to do nothing :)

ya its set to "Do Nothing".

So OBS has no audio ducking? sounds like its just an oddity with the particular game then?

thanks for the surprisingly fast reply. <3

Yea OBS itself has no option like that yet. (It has been requested but noone had time to add it yet :D)
Maybe the game has an option to automatically adjust the mic or something, similar to skype?

there is no option for it in the two games i "seem" to be experiencing this. Could be all in my head. Minor issue. Thanks again.
