Question / Help No Audio Input from DJM250 Mk2

[ShylockSe2]

Hiya

I am trying to live stream my DJ mixes via my laptop (the same laptop I use when digitally DJ'n and when using vinyl). When I set up an audio input, it finds the DJM 250mk2 but no audio appears in the mixer stream?

Can anyone help understand why the OBS appears not to be able to capture the audio in from my USB output from my mixer?

Please post a log with your issue! Here's how...

Some things to check:
- Windows settings -> Privacy -> Microphone. Verify "allow apps to access microphone" is enabled, and OBS is enabled in the app list.
- Windows settings -> System -> Sound -> Sound control panel. Go to recording tab, go to your device properties, go to advanced. Make sure "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device" is unchecked.

Carllmmii, I appreciate you spending so much of your time on this.

I ended up ordering a Numark M6 usb, it streamed fine last friday, going live this friday.
Only bummer is that it's not compatible with rekordbox control vinyl.
a fb user sent me this article about how to set up djm-250mk2 & obs
very confusing:

So it looks like the guide only uses voicemeeter as a patch to get the ASIO signal converted to WDM for general use, which shouldn't be necessary as long as the OBS-asio plugin is installed.

The part that is actually giving problems is this:

This is saying that OBS does not have sufficient permissions to access your device.

Have you verified the two things I asked above, specifically the 2nd one about exclusive control?

- Windows settings -> Privacy -> Microphone. Verify "allow apps to access microphone" is enabled, and OBS is enabled in the app list.

- Windows settings -> System -> Sound -> Sound control panel. Go to recording tab, go to your device properties, go to advanced. Make sure "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device" is unchecked.
