There are a couple of different ways that you can record audio and video separately using OBS. One way is to use the "Audio Output Mode" feature, and the other way is to use the "Split Output Mode" feature. In this article, we will discuss both methods in detail.

First, let’s discuss the "Audio Output Mode" feature. This feature allows you to select which audio device you want to use to record your audio. By default, OBS will use your computer’s default audio device. However, you can select a different audio device by clicking on the "Audio Output Mode" drop-down menu and selecting the device you want to use.

There are a few things to keep in mind when using this feature. First, make sure that the audio device you select is enabled and is not muted. Second, make sure that the audio device is set to the correct input and output devices. To do this, you can use the "Windows Sound" control panel.

To open the "Windows Sound" control panel, click on the "Windows" button in the bottom left corner of your screen, and then type "sound" into the search box. Click on "Sound" in the search results, and then click on the "Device Manager" tab. Under "Sound, video and game controllers", you should see your audio device listed. If the audio device is not listed, you can click on the "Add" button and select the audio device from the list.

Once you have selected the audio device you want to use, you need to make sure that the input and output devices are set to the correct values. The input device is the device that the audio is coming into, and the output device is the device that the audio is going out of. To set the input and output devices, click on the "Properties" button.

In the "Properties" window, click on the "Listen" tab, and then make sure that the "Listen to this device" checkbox is checked. Next, make sure that the "Output to this device" checkbox is checked, and then select the correct output device from the "Output device" drop-down menu. Click on the "OK" button to save the changes.

Now that we have discussed the "Audio Output Mode" feature, let’s discuss the "Split Output Mode" feature. This feature allows you to split your audio and video streams into two separate streams. This is useful if you want to record your audio and video separately, or if you want to send your audio and video to different devices.

To use the "Split Output Mode" feature, click on the "Split Output Mode" checkbox. This will split your audio and video streams into two separate streams. Next, select the audio and video devices you want to use from the "Audio Output" and "Video Output" drop-down menus.

You can also use the "Split Output Mode" feature to send your audio and video to different devices. To do this, select the "Audio Output" and "Video Output" devices you want to use from the drop-down menus. Then, click on the "Output Mixer" button.

In the "Output Mixer" window, you should see two tabs, "Audio" and "Video". Under the "Audio" tab, you should see the "Output to" checkboxes. Make sure that the checkboxes for the devices you want to use are checked, and then click on the "OK" button.

Under the "Video" tab, you should see the "Output to" checkboxes.
