Sound trigger to start cam recording

My cameras have mics built in. Nothing new there.
How would I tell OBS to start recording when a mic picks up sound?
And can I set a certain mic threshold before it will start recording?

Thanks Jonathan this looks really promising!
I have set up a Macro to start Recording when the Mic in my scene/source is above 20% level.
At the moment though it's not triggering. Any tips?

Once your VAD software detects sound above a threshold, it could send a command via the OBS WebSocket plugin to start recording. You'd need some basic scripting knowledge (Python is popular for this).

¡Gracias Jonathan esto parece realmente prometedor!
He configurado una macro para comenzar a grabar cuando el nivel del micrófono en mi escena/fuente esté por encima del 20%.
De momento no se activa. ¿Algún consejo?

You could lower the threshold to trigger the macro. In my opinion, 20% seems a bit high.

Maybe something closer to -50dB (about 0.32%) would have to be tested.

you can send a screenshot of how you have configured your macro, here or in the advanced switcher forum.
