Question / Help Microphone OBS Issue

[Amos Rodriguez]

Hello, I have recently changed to a brand new desktop to help with better streaming capabilities. I have a Logitech 720 WebCam and a Snowball Microphone to stream with. I've watched several tutorials to help me with the basic set-up and am using Youtube as my primary Streaming platform. I have set the audio to be captured by the Snowball and when I add the Source to be captured by the LogiTech I also changed the Audio Capture in the 'Properties' to the SnowBall.

Now the issue: There is a small echo when I listen to the stream and when I snap my fingers in front of the SnowBall I hear almost instantly a double snap. I thought maybe the sensitivity was too high or perhaps it was capturing too much noise. I tried to fiddle with the controls. I've never had an issue with the echo before so I can only assume something changed with the Desktop I got. Any tips on how to proceed?

you don't need two. remove the mic input from the webcam properties. as in, disable it.
