Is it possible to record mic + game audio with MSI Afterburner and USB headset?

Yes or no?

I've been at it for two hours now. I've set everything up, seen pretty much all the video's but I still can't get it to record game sound AND mic sound together. It's one or the other.

I understand USB headsets are a problem, so I'm wondering if it's even possible?

every decent capturing software does this if you set the options right. However I wouldnt use MSI Afterburner for it.

Lol, at first glance I would say you're absolutely right about setting the options right! Now just to find them :)

Why not use Afterburner for it? A lot of people seem to be happy with it, low fps drops etc.

well first because it is a mainly a monitoring + GPU OC software not a dedicated capture software ment for really capturing game stuff.

However in the video capturing software you have the option to select 2 audio sources and to mix then you can enable to mix the audi sources which will play them both.

I understand, but if gets the job done... Wasn't planning on making a living on YT just yet. What would you recommend I use though?

My audio still refuses to get mixed... When I set it to "mix multiple audio tracks" it corrupts the file.

I don't think it's possible with Afterburner, period. Pretty sure I've tried all the tricks from the web, nothing. Maybe some USB headphones can in fact be set to work with a workaround, but not mine.

Any tips on software that could help would be appreciated - or any word on it simply being impossible with a USB headset/mic altogether.

OBS seems to be able to do it though! Now all I need is for it to record video lol. But I think this will work.

Yes, I'm a genius! Downloaded OBS and it works fine lol.

Thanks ;)
