i did a restream for a Twitch channel today, and i was unable to get my microphone to be picked up by OBS (as in the mixer did not react at all). the microphone works fine in every other place on Windows, including Discord and system tests. I am running a condenser mic through a Tascam US 16x08.

my log files are below:

(last) https://obsproject.com/logs/y22UEycFU98NxKvg

here are some of the things i tried:

- full system restart
- disable/enable input source in Windows, as well as OBS
- disable input source 1 in OBS and enable input source 2
- uncheck "give applications priority" box in input device control panel
- many many other combinations of pushing buttons / settings / etc
- whitelist the OBS folder in antivirus

OBS was working fine when I was working with it before the most recent Windows 10 update (version 1903, OS build 18362.295) so i'm not sure if something in the update borked it. (UPDATE: i tried to roll back to the previous version of Windows and this did not help)

i have another restream tomorrow afternoon so i'm hoping i can get some assistance beforehand. thank you so much!
