Question / Help obs x264 recording settings

For recording only?
Set your Output Mode to Simple.
Set your Recording quality to Indistinguishable.
Set your encoder to NVENC.
Done.
 
In this case, do one recording in simple mode. Open the log that contains that recording session. You will find the details of the settings OBS used in simple mode. Enter these settings in advanced output mode.
 
Another option is to install the AudioWriter plugin, and write out each source as its own audio file.

Still hoping they add multi-track audio recording to Simple mode.
In the meantime, you can also set the recording mode to CQP or CRF in Advanced, with somewhere between 16-22 as the target. Lower is higher quality, but much larger filesizes.
