Send Only Mic to Twitch VODS (no music) with OBS

📺 https://youtu.be/H_16bWhft4Y

While it is rather simplistic for most setups, just turning off “Desktop Audio” from all Twitch VODs is enough for many live streams where I want to listen to music in the background but want it removed from what gets saved to Twitch. The steps are really easy:

  1. Settings - Output - Enable Advanced Encoder Settings
  2. Settings - Output - Twitch VOD Track (Uses Track 2)
  3. Audio Mixer - Desktop Audio - Advanced Audio Properties - Tracks - 2 (off)

It’s easy enough to turn back on for gaming and such that would otherwise be removed.

There are fancy ways to send the audio of only Spotify (or something) to another pseudo-audio-device so that it is all that is omitted, but that will have to come later.
