Hey!
I am streaming to twitch using OBS multiplatform and I frequently find myself asking the same question. How is my audio levels for the viewers?
Is there a way I can get OBS multiplatform to playback the audio from the stream on a different audio device on my computer than the one I use on stream? That plays the exact audio sent to twitch for my viewers?
I've noticed OBS has some sound playing, but its not audible at all so I don't know if that is the playback or not? I fiddled around with the settings, but couldnt quite seem to figure it out.

Personally I do a test local recording before going live to check audio levels. Kind of hard to do it any other way, practically speaking. I also use a program called Peak Level Meter to see where my levels are at, and make sure I am close to or just below 0db.

Thank you! I tried that application, but I couldnt seem to get it to work. It automatically captured the mic on my webcam that I don't even use in the stream and didnt see where I could change the source. The recording didnt even strike my mind, thank you for that :)

I believe I have found a different application than you have. The one I had did not do that and was locked to webcam as source. Do you have a link to the one you use?
