Hi dear development! In update 18.0 and 18.0.1 encountered a problem: my voice my voice changes to the voice of the robot. The problem is solved only if restart obs.

My device:

- Mic / Rode NT1-a
- Sound Interface / Focusrite scarlett 2i2

An example of a problem: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/127490613

Thank you in advance!

I have the same sound interface and have run into the same problem, even increasing the buffer rate does not help.

hi there, i don't know if this will help, to be honest i didn't watch the video but i was having issue with robot voice.

In my case that was when i was streaming and using Audacity in the same time and use audacity than OBS for the voice, the gain, noise gate etc.

I was having this issue only in some Game who need more CPU or Core and solve it just by going in the "Windows Task Manager" (ctrl+Alt+Suppr). Then find your voice/microphone tool if you have one or OBS in the "processus Tab", you can right click on the program in "application" tab too and click on "go in the processus tab"

Finaly, right click on the processus -> priority -> Above normal / High.

For me, i always set my Game "High" when Heavy CPU demanding, OBS and Audacity "Above normal" and that it, this solve my issue.

An other possibility can be because all of your device didn't have the same profile, like a microphone setup in 41MHz but OBS sound in 48Mhz etc. The other important thing is the bits (16/24/ etc) and the quality (DvD / Studio)

For me i use microphone 2 channel (for the mic), 16bits 48000 Hz (48Mhz) in DvD quality everywhere.
OBS seems to like when everything as the same profile, and this as solve issue in some Games who try to change my device setup (like many ubisoft Game: The Division / Ghost Recon Wildlands etc)



Not sure if all of this will help you, i hope yes and sorry for my english :/

Same here,

Focusrite 2i2 3rd gen + Audiotechnica AT2020 + elgato HD60S+

  • only OBS and adobe Reader running
  • same sample ratio set in OBS and windows to 48000
  • .bat file "soundfix" restarting audio devices doesn't help
  • unplugged unnecessary USB devices - doesn't help
  • restarting OBS works!!!

Check out my test video: https://youtu.be/z0z1vHypA0U (no english but it doesn't matter)

You can hear a robotic voice on the beginning, then at 1:38 I restarted OBS and continued streaming with the same stream key. Then at 4:09 I switched to another computer to test AT2020 with USB plug (different mic, no audio interface) - it worked but that second computer was also after fresh start of OBS

I had same problems on Focusrite Solo 2gen!

There's a lot of people having same issues - just search "robotic voice" on youtube or Google it. - It must be something with OBS software!

It sucks because i can't sleep before every webinar - i don't want to disappoint a thousand people because my audio doesn't work
