Because everything should be coming through your Audience Mix or VOD Track sources, you shouldn't need to do anything fancy here for 95% of creator setups. Then, for Audience Mix, select ONLY Track 1 and your VOD Track, select ONLY Track 2. From there, we're going to click on Advanced Audio Properties.įrom here, you'll want to reset everything to Monitor Off and uncheck everything in this little checkbox matrix here. Let's rename our 2 audio sources to Audience Mix and VOD Track just so we don't get confused later on. To do this, we're going to go to the main OBS window, and in your Audio Mixer, click on the little cogwheel. Now we need to tell OBS which sources to put on each track.

What we've just done is told OBS that our live track is on Track 1, and our VOD Track is on Track 2. Next, we're going to go to Output Tab and we're going to set Audio Track to 1, Enable Twitch VOD Track and set it to 2. Let's go to Mic/Aux 2 and let's add VOD Track there. We should still only have Audience Mix as a Mic/Aux device. First, let's go back to OBS Settings > Audio. Setting up the VOD Track has a few extra steps to it, but it's really manageable. For example, if you export your Twitch Clips to TikTok, you can set everything up so that your music isn't included and your alerts sounds aren't drowning you out. Second, it gives you control over what your audience hears on other platforms. This helps you stay within compliance against DMCA claims.

First, there is a lot of music that is royalty-free for streaming, but not for on demand. The first track is your Live Track and the second track is your Clips/VOD Track. In essence, it gives you two tracks of audio to send to Twitch. For those who don't know what the VOD Track feature is, the VOD Track was introduced by Twitch in 2021. Next, let's set up the VOD Track feature.
