. If there's anyone who could help me with that aspect, i'd appreciate your help. I do have skype also.
If your mic is working w/ other programs skip step #1
#1 On your computer, bottom right taskbar may be a speaker icon, check your mic, etc. there:
speaker R click
'recording devices' ,
look for your mic, enabled, check for signal if there's a meter
#2 In my OBS studio I look at my settings:
file/settings/audio
'desktop audio device' = default or speakers
Mic/Aux audio device ...use drop down menu - your mic or default
---
Plus, if I use hotkeys to push to talk etc. I always open my OBS w/ R click 'run as administrator'.
Do a sound check by streaming a test.
Sometimes you may need to mute then unmute, once, all audio inputs (on the OBS panel) to get a signal.
note: your system may be different from mine, and results may vary, good luck.
