Had a few questions about how to split and separate your audio tracks for live streaming when using Elgato Wave link and OBS studio (Streamlabs)
Here's a quick simple guide for setting your audio up using Wave link and OBS so you can control each individual audio track on your LIve stream as well as add effects and maybe remove music from your Game streams, Recordings and VODS...
This wont keep you 100% safe from DMCA strikes though so use Claims free music where possible...

To everyone saying that 'now the volume can't be controlled in Wave Link' aka the monitor or stream mix sliders.. that's intentional here. Great video btw! If you don't need your audio sources split (don't need to have music for example now show in your VOD), then revert these changes. This was exactly what i needed though, thanks @nightow1 - shocked this hasn't blown up in views, it really should.

Thank you!! 🔥 I should have really mentioned that limitation in the video to be fair...🙃 But if people ONLY need to split music from the VOD then they can keep everything else in the stream mix except for the music, I should ask the elgato team of theres going to be an easier way to do this down the line.. 🤔🤞

@@ajsarsfield No worries! a future update from Elgato for this would be great. Great idea btw, so if someone wanted to control everything from Wave Link EXCEPT their music, then just have that as it's own audio source in Windows (don't add to Wave Link but DO add to OBS as an Audio Source) - that could work. I came from using Voicemeter + Virtual cables to Wave link.. a virtual cable gives you the best of both situations here.

@AirAssaultRando 2 ай бұрын

One thing I did notice is that volume control no longer matters in Wavelink and has to be controlled in OBS instead. Am I missing something or is that just the way it is?

I just got a stream deck and for me it doesn’t show stream output but has no additional output device and seen a guy say I have to set aux mic in obs to be able to send it to stream .any thoughts .should I download an old software to keep with what your saying to do

@ajsarsfield 24 күн бұрын

@forsimack3993 Thats actually how it's supposed to work now!! The stream output is always active, you should just see that in other programmes as an input (Although I had a bug once where it didn't show up and I had to reinstall wavelink 🙃) But the "additional" output in wave link is designed to send your audio to a capture card or hdmi device etc for people who have dual PC setups! Regarding the "Aux" suggestion.. In OBS you can select the stream output in the mic/aux settings if you want to. (That means it'll show up on every scene) Or you can manually add the source to your scenes by adding an "audio input capture" It depends on how you want to organise your scenes/sources etc

earned my sub dude! absolutely amazing video! I have been streaming for years and have never had an Audio scene that makes it so much easier to edit in the future! thank you so much for the tips!

Appreciate the kind words!!! I'm glad you found it useful 🔥 I love nesting scenes like this, it makes everything so much easier to control and organise! I even do the same with all my alerts etc too

@reby_ttv Ай бұрын

Why do you insert each audio source individually? I inserted the finished stream mix from Wave Link and let it run on audio track 1 in OBS and then I added Game Mic Discord and the browser again individually and let them run on track 2 for Twitch VOD. For the recordings I put my mic on track 3, Discord on track 4 and game on track 5. This way you can turn the audio up or down or mute it for yourself or the stream while you're live using the Wave Link software. Sorry if my spelling is not quite correct, my English is not that good so I used Google Translate to help

@ajsarsfield Ай бұрын

Honestly it was just for demonstration purposes in the video so people could understand How the process works.. BUT Personally I do something similar to you for my own content.. 'cause I find it annoying when I cant control the volume via my streamdeck 😅 The only downside to having it all together like that means you can't do effects like "audio ducking" though🙃 Elgato needs to allow proper sidechain compression in wavelink and I'll be set

mannnnn not selecting MicrophoneFX was exactly the issue i was having - i kept seleciting Mic In, getting raw microphone audio without effects. love the noise suppression and eq from elgato and was frustrated it wouldn't bridge to obs. thank you so damn much

I did the EXACT same thing when I first got wavelink 😅 I'm so glad you figured out that issue now your settings can sound the same no matter when you're using them! 🔥

For audio balance, say less volume to the stream than in your ears, do you use the WaveLink sliders or the OBS ones?

Perfect! I just bought stream deck plus and been trying to split and failed hehe Edit: so I tried that and volume controls from wave link no longer work. Wouldnt it be a bit counter productive having a software to manage audio but doing this would cancel it all out?

@geraldsalas3213 Ай бұрын

Can you also make a tutorial how to use the stream deck plus to mute/decrease/increase volume for specific channel while streaming? Like when streamintg I want my audience to hear the game sound not so load but I like hearing the game loud but I dont want to affect my Mic sound. Also how I can add audio sfx with a press of a button in stream deck plus to make my stream a bit entertaining. I also want my audience to either hear my discord team voice while playing sometimes i dont want them to hear because they can be so loud sometimes.

I currently use voice meter potato and familiar with it. However I just picked up an XLR mic with the wave XLR. Is voice meter now redundant or did I not need to pickup wave XLR if I still want to use voicemeter

@ajsarsfield 7 күн бұрын

If you've just got a Wave XLR, download elgato "WaveLink" software and test it out! Wave Link and Voicemeeter are basically the same (You can still use voicemeeter if you want to) But IMO Wavelink is a little more Intuitive and simple to use and also works with stream decks etc so you can control your audio on the fly if you need to.. However if you now have an XLR mic then you need the wave XLR to connect that to your PC & wavelink is obviously included with that hardware
