What the heck is going on boys and girls,
my name is NoMercyMerc. I am here to
show you exactly how to split
all your audio in Streamlabs OBS. That's
it, no fluff. Let's just get right into it!
If you guys think you can benefit from an
OBS guide instead of a Streamlabs guide,
leave a comment down below and I can
make another video like this! Firstly, if
you do have any questions after watching this video
you can stop by my Twitch, I stream every
Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday
7:30PM EST. I also have a discord,
both links will be down in the
description below. Let's uh, let's go
ahead and get into it. I'm going to go
ahead and start by showing you the end
result so that you don't have to waste
your time with this whole
tutorial if this isn't exactly what you
want to get out of it.
So i'm going to jump over to Premiere
Pro and show you exactly what
the recording is going to look like at
the end of all this. So what I went ahead
and did was I dropped a pre-recorded VOD
in here that has
five different audio tracks. This is
exactly what you're gonna come out with
and let's go ahead and give it a listen.
At first listen you're gonna actually
hear an echo and i'll explain that in a second,
"how you doing what's up man i'm currently streaming" So
you can hear it sounds a little bit
robotic
but the reason for that is because this
track one is actually a duplicate of all
the other audio tracks.
That's because audio one is the audio
that's actually being pushed out
to your stream if you go ahead and mute
that in your recording it'll sound
perfect. "how you doing what's up man i'm
currently" So the way that each of these
tracks are broken out is the A2 is my
desktop audio, A3 is my microphone, A4 is Spotify and A5
is actually my discord
so if we go ahead and listen i'll mute
each individual one to show you what I
mean how you doing
what's up man so i can go ahead and mute
my mic dude hellos
i can mute discord so all you can hear
now is my music playing
and i can go ahead and mute my music
sadly there's no desktop audio in this
uh
clip to show you but trust me if i muted
that i wouldn't hear like
my game or my youtube web page or
anything like that
so besides showing you the end result i
also want to show you what it's going to
look like in streamlabs obs
in terms of your meters on the right
bottom hand side so let's jump over
there
so within streamlabs obs down here in
the bottom right you have this mixer
section
where you'll see each audio track in
their respective meters
so typically all you would see down here
is desktop and microphone but down here
we have spotify
this is exactly what you're going to end
up with after this whole process
i can show you exactly how it works so
when i play spotify
you see it down here instead of you
would typically see it in the desktop
section
so if i go ahead and pause that and i go
play youtube now why now
i'm in i mean just you see that that
shows up in desktop
so you can actually play both of these
at the same time
and you see they're on separate tracks
and that's exactly how they're going to
be
published once you actually finish the
recording too additional to those three
splits you can also see that i have a
discord one down here and i'll show you
exactly how to set that up as well
so now that you've made it to this point
in the video you're going to know
exactly what you're going to get by the
end of it so
stick around we'll go through the
step-by-step process first and foremost
you're going to have to download
three applications the first one is
voice meter banana the second one
is audio router and the third one is vb
cable
all three links will be down in the
description below go ahead and download
those and then come right back to the
video
after you have those three downloaded
the first one you're going to want to
run
is the vb cable you're gonna right click
run as administrator you'll hit
yes and then this little box will pop up
that is literally all you have to do you
can go ahead and exit out of this and
now you're able to use vb cable
next you're gonna wanna open up voice
meter banana go ahead and open it i
already have one open here
when you initially open up voicemeeter
banana nothing's going to be selected
for anything you'll see select input
device for hardware
input 1 2 3 and you'll also see nothing
selected for hardware output either
a1 a2 or a3 so what you're going to want
to do you're going to want to
left click on hardware input 1 you'll
see a list of all your
options you're going to want to select
your microphone that you're using to
record your audio
you're going to you're going to see all
these letters to the left hand side
you're gonna want to select wdm
that's the highest quality one so go
ahead and select your microphone there
second you're gonna wanna select your
cable output that's the vb audio virtual
gable you're also gonna wanna select
wdm on that one as well so that they're
synced up
for a1 hardware output over here on the
right you're going to want to select
whatever speaker or headset you use to
listen to your audio coming from your
computer
and it's that simple additionally over
here you're going to want to just select
b1 you can select a1 if you want to hear
yourself through your headset
but it is a slight delay so it can throw
you off sometimes you're going to want
to select
a1 and b1 for hardware input too
two last little things about voice meter
banana is you actually need to go down
to your windows setting
do open sound settings and then set your
choose audio device to voice meter
input that's the vaio right there so
select that
exit out you're good with that and then
the last little thing
is just helpful on startup so that you
don't need to start up voice banana
every single time is you hit menu here
and you want to select
system tray run at startup and that's it
you're done with voicemeeter banana
that's it you can minimize it and you're
good to go
and lastly you're going to want to run
audio router as
administrator so right click run as
administrator you'll hit yes and then
you'll see this screen what we want to
do is we want to actually
move spotify or whatever our music is
coming from
over to aux input for voice meter
so what we're going to have to do first
of all you'd have to open up spotify
make sure that it plays a sound for a
second
that way it'll actually populate here
here i can actually show you guys that
so i'll close spotify
this will go away so no spotify i'd have
to open up spotify
once open i would have to play music
and then boom spotify opens up right
here what you're going to want to do is
left click hit route and change this
device to the
aux voicemeeter aux v-a-i-o
that is it hit okay boom once you play
it again it'll go
ahead and jump over to the aux meter
and what that's going to do is it's
going to split the audio track so that
it's not grouped into your default
that's exactly what we want
and and we're ready to go that is that's
basically it
so now we're going to jump over
streamlabs obs to complete
the uh the setup process first thing you
do when you get into stream labs is
you're going to want to go to the bottom
left-hand side
gear icon to open up your settings
you're going to want to go to the
audio tab and then you're going to want
to set device 1
as voice meter v-a-i-o
voice meter input not the aux just the
input
as device 1. device 2 is the aux version
of it
so you're going to go ahead and select
that and lastly your mic
device one is gonna be your microphone
just your standard microphone that's it
hit done perfect now what we're gonna
wanna do is we're gonna put
each one of these audio tracks on
different tracks as of right now
they're going through all audio tracks
all one through six that streamlabs
supports
so you're gonna go to the mixer section
the gear icon select that it'll open up
your mixer settings what you're to want
to do is make sure that
one is selected for every single audio
source
and then for the sources that you want
to split out so desktop microphone
spotify
and discord in my case you want to make
sure that they're all on
different audio tracks without
duplicating
the same one so you want to make sure
desktop set to two
microphones set to three spotify is set
to four discord set to five
and then you can go ahead and exit out
of that so then last but not least you
want to go back into the main settings
of streamlabs
you're going to want to go to the output
tab and then on the stream
tab under advanced output mode you're
going to want to select audio track 1
why audio track 1 because that is the
one we selected that all the audio goes
through
and then when you go over to recording
what you can do is you can select the
audio tracks that you want to include
for us we don't actually need to include
six
because our last audio track stops at
discord on five
so you can go ahead and hit done and
then as soon as you're done recording
your first time it'll split all of those
audio tracks perfectly
they'll be in sync but they'll all be
separate so the last addition that we
have to do is actually include
discord so to include discord you
actually need to
add it as a source within each scene
so you're going to want to hit the plus
sign you're going to hit audio output
capture
don't hit audio input capture hit audio
output capture
once you select that add source i
already have discord added i'll add a
new one to show you guys
you're going to want to select cable
input
vb audio virtual cable that was the
virtual cable that we set up earlier
you're just going to select that hit
done boom your discord will actually
show up down here now you can rename
this discord if you want and the very
last step here is to jump over to
discord
go into the settings go to voice and
video
and in the output devices select cable
input vb audio virtual cable
and once you select that escape you're
good to go boys and girls that is
basically
it all all jam-packed into one video
