SMALL UPDATE: They have recently updated the website to hide the email address form making it a little tricky to find for some users. Simply click on the "I've Already Donated" button _(even if you haven't donated)_ , and it will show the download form. :)
Thank you. no bullshit, no intro, fast, straight to business, you only say things that are necessary, I cannot say how much I appreciate tutorials like this. THANK YOU!
This might have been the best tutorial I have ever seen in almost anything... It was so concise and easy to understand I feel like if there was a tutorial like this for everything in life, I would be so much better off.
the new mac update has a completely different settings layout and no option to add a new device. it's not showing up when i search in the search bar to add it either. can you make an updated version on how to do this on the newest mac update?
Holy crap man, I have been struggling with this for YEARS, I was using the interview setting on my yeti to pick up the audio from my speakers, that's how jank my set up was, I tried finding help at least 5 times and none of the videos were this simple. Thank you thank you
Evan, man thank you so much, You are truly at a master level of making these tutorials. so straight forward and easy to understand, Really appreciate it!
hmm the moment I went to preferences -> sound -> Audio for OBS it made all my sound go away. I couldn't hear you talk, and I can't hear anything on my desktop play (GarageBand, OBS sound, etc)
In the audio midi setup application, when you create the multi-output device, select the Macbook speakers as well, so that it can play simultaneously with your desktop audio. So when you change your setup audio in systems preferences and select the "Audio for OBS" that you created, you can record desktop audio while hearing sound through your speakers.
Had the exact same problem and nothing was working until I tried this: Go to desktop audio (on OBS) Go to advanced properties Make sure monitor and output is selected. This allows OBS to monitor the signal and output the signal from your device
for me it has the same problem but when I check for my headphones they are not there. when I click the input capture I get a lot of echoing. Is anyone else having this problem?
Thank you man!! I never comment on videos but this just helped a lot. For those who are looking for a way. This is the most easy and perfect setup to record audio from your desktop. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻
Thank you. This quick and easy ! works for Mac. Just make sure to go to System settings > Sound > and make sure you're selecting Blackhole 2ch as input and output when recording.
This still works! Thank you. Pro TIP!!: make sure your monitoring device is your headphones and NOT the black hole audio file. I lost my marbles for like 2+ hours resetting and redownloading everything. 😅😅
Evan, I can't thank you enough for this tutorial! I've spent countless hours trying to figure this out and a lot of headaches later, you gave me the solution, THANK YOU!!
I've been trying to set up my audio through OBS for soooo long. Going through a DAW would make you think that streaming a software that makes sound would make it easy to configure sound output through OBS but that would far from the truth. You solved all my issues in the span of 4 minutes and for free!!! Thank you so much!!!!
hey brother i just want to thank you for this video! if i didnt find this video made by you i dont think i was ever going to know how to record my desktop audio on Mac, again thank brother may god give you more views and subscribers.
As someone who hasn't used a Mac in a long time and have never used it with OBS the audio was definitely confusing me. Thanks for the absolutely spot on guide.
Thank you, thank you! I couldn't figure out how to get this work with other tutorials, but you were straight and to the point with easy to understand language. I appreciate you!
Followed another tutorial and got so close, fiddled around with settings for a good 20 minutes until i found this and you had the exact fix i needed. Thank you so much dude
So I normally don't comment on videos, but when I say this was the fastest tutorial that actually worked, I mean it! I have been working on this for almost a year and a half, and I decided to quit and then today I came back and tried to do it again. I searched for videos and this was the one, thank you so much!
Evan you saved me. I'm an old lady and new to a lot of this so when I was trying to set up a small studio with my ancient mac mini and obs there were so many issues! So I've been chipping away at getting everything set up and this was one of the last hurdles I had, getting the audio to work on the screen recording. Thank you so much for this! New sub because it looks like you're interested in a lot of the same things I am.
Thank you so much! I was struggling to capture the audio on my Mac and I can now capture audio from the window I was playing. Very clear video and much appreciated
OMG. THIS IS SO HELPFUL. I was using Caster, another app to record audio with, but the audio sounded kinda scuffed. With Blackhole, the audio sounded great! Thanks for this tutorial!
thanks so much man you were a big help in such little time you didn't bs around n got right to the point if it was more ppl like you in the world things would be easier
I used to try and do this with Soundflower back in the days (and the OBS version still installed on my Mac was v0.16.2 lol) and it was so hard and unclear for the young me lol. Thankfully today you have new, easy ways (Blackhole) and great tutorials (yours!)! Thanks chief!
THANK YOU FOR THIS!!! I have been trying to do this on my own for weeks, and it took you four minutes to show me how to actually get it working lol- my future Minecraft UA-camr career thanks you.
Straight forward and got me up and running with capturing my audio n led than 10 minutes. Had previously spent close to an hour searching online with no luck. Thank you!!
Thank you so much! I was panicking for a second thinking I did something wrong, but I remembered to restart my computer, and everything works perfectly! I just started streaming a few months ago, so every video bombed in audio. I can finally post successful live streams thanks to you!
@@jamie206 I think it might work. That’s what I tried. It seems like for Macs the entire system needs to refresh to take on the change. Shouldn’t take long. Let me know if restarting worked if you want!
was searching for alternatives for 3rd party applications and right as I was about to give up I came across the video, thank you for making and sharing this. 🙏🏽
THANK YOU!!! I tried so many things and watched so many videos without success! You helped me a lot, been struggling with this problem for over 6 months now!! Thank you so much for your help!

It still isn't working for me 😭
Fr
after hours of googling nonsense this was the life saver ! thank you
Evan, man thank you so much, You are truly at a master level of making these tutorials. so straight forward and easy to understand, Really appreciate it!
I've seen hundreds of videos about this and none of those helped, and finally after 5 hours I've made it to record the audio from a video. Thank you!
I can't control the volume of the speakers when Audio for OBS is selected. How can I add that to it?
SEARCHED EVERYWHERE THANK YOU FOR THIS🔥

Thank you! This is the third and final YT video on this issue I’ll have visit. Perfect explanation, kudos
Thank you man!! I never comment on videos but this just helped a lot. For those who are looking for a way. This is the most easy and perfect setup to record audio from your desktop. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻
Every tutorial I used didn't help at all- but this one was simple, to the point, and fixed my problem. Thank you so much Evan! You're a life saver!!
Great, fast and concise tutorial. The only problem with this setup is I can no longer control the output volume on my laptop while recording?
Surprised more people don't mention this. Makes me wonder if most people aren't having this issue
Thank you. This quick and easy ! works for Mac. Just make sure to go to System settings > Sound > and make sure you're selecting Blackhole 2ch as input and output when recording.
Thanks Evan! You saved me a lot of confusion. Good explained and easy to follow. 👍🏻
thank you so much for this tutorial chief!
Really help and easy to learn. My OBS works for audio recording on Mac now.
This still works! Thank you. Pro TIP!!: make sure your monitoring device is your headphones and NOT the black hole audio file. I lost my marbles for like 2+ hours resetting and redownloading everything. 😅😅

as soon as i switched my output audio the video froze. do i need to restart my laptop
@@jamie206 I think it might work. That’s what I tried. It seems like for Macs the entire system needs to refresh to take on the change. Shouldn’t take long. Let me know if restarting worked if you want!
