Hi All,
My church uses OBS to broadcast our services to Youtube. I've setup and tested the audio on our system thoroughly. Line level audio comes the soundboard to a dedicated sound card (Creative Sound Blaster Audigy FX). It is then inserted into the stream. During the service, someone noticed crackling audio that I associated with overdriven audio. We were monitoring the sound through OBS and we did not hear the crackling. I muted the OBS monitor and checked the audio from the sound card; no crackling was observed. I then checked my Youtube Livestream; lots of crackling. I also recorded a video during the service and it had crackling video similar to the Youtube Live stream. Suspecting OBS was somehow distorting the audio, I restarted OBS and the problem vanished. This leads me to believe that the audio monitoring on OBS does not monitor the true output but the something between the audio input and output. Is this a true statement and is there a plan to change the monitoring to the true output?
Thanks,
Hyppe
P.s. I can provide some A/V clips if needed.
