Windows 10: Recorded a video and can only hear the mic audio on media player

Please help I've looked all over. I use obs studios to screen record videos for my YouTube gaming channel. At first I thought everything was fine because I hooked my mic TONOR TC-777 up and fiddled with some settings and my mic is working fine and so is obs. I say that because my mic DID record the audio and obs DID record my audio and video fine because it played well in media player when I opened it to see. I exported it today hoping to edit and post but when I opened in google Drive on my phones no sound even the editor app Clipchamp that's on media player wouldn't pick up the sound pleas

How can I record playback audio and mic?

I've actually managed to my problem, just by Googling...after finally figuring out what to Google.


Problem: Using Audicity, I wanted to record audio of myself singing karaoke. Sound inputs

• YouTube video playing from Google Chrome
• G933 Logitech Headset (or any USB mic for that matter)

Two applications required for this. Download these two apps. When installing, make sure you Run As Administrator for each. Install each app, then reboot your PC.

• Virtual Audio Cable - Allows you to record computer audio
• VoiceMeeter Banana - Mixes two (possibly more) sound Inputs as one, which ends up being your Recording device for Audacity.

In Windows 10

1. Go to Control Panel>Sounds>Playback and Set CABLE Input as your Default Playback device. Verify that you now have these three additional Playback Devices:

• CABLE Output
  
• VoiceMeeter Aux Output
  
• VoiceMeeter Output

1. Go to the Recording tab and Set CABLE Output as your Default Recording device. Verify that you now have these three additional Recording Devices:

• CABLE Output
• VoiceMeeter Aux Output
• VoiceMeeter Output

In Audacity (Preferences>Settings>Devices):

• Host: MME
• Playback Device: VoiceMeeter Input (VB-Audio Voi
• Recording Device: VoiceMeeter Output (VB-Audio Vo
• Channels: 2 (Stereo)

Open Voice Meeter Banana (use the Search box next to the Start button) and change these settings:

• HARDWARE INPUT 1: MME: CABLE Output (VB-Audio Virtual
• HARDWARE INPUT 2: MME: Set it to your desired microphone. I used Microphone Logitech G933 Gaming). For this hardware input, select A1 to deselect it. Otherwise, you will hear your voice playing through your Speakers/Headset.
• HARDWARE OUT: Click A1 and select MME: <your output device>. In my case, MME: Speakers (Logitech G933 Gaming)

To test: Go to Youtube, find a video to play. Go to Audacity. Click Record, then go back to your YouTube video and click play. You should see the sound meter go up and down, in accordance to the track you're playing. Additionally if you speak, you will see your mic's meter rise and fall, as well. Stop the recording when finished. Note that to hear the newly recorded track's audio, you may have to change your Playback sound to your desired device. It i also important to note to reset your Playback device once exiting VoiceMeeter Banana, to your desired audio output device. This can be done by selecting the sound button on your System Tray.

 

Audio recording

For clarification, we would like to know if you are trying to record a voice recording directly to Windows Media. If yes, it is not possible to record vocal tracks directly into Windows Media Player, you can import the files into your library after they
have been recorded with a different audio software program. Windows Media Player enables you to record sounds from a microphone or other audio devices. Media Player also copies or burns pre-recorded music, photo and data files. See steps below:

• Open Windows Media Player on a PC with a drive that's capable of burning CDs.
• Click on the Burn tab at the top of the window.
• Click on Burn options.
• Select a format for the CD you want to burn:
  
  • Click on Audio CD to burn the disc as an audio CD that can be played in any CD player.
  • Click on Data CD to burn the disk in a data format that stores music files in MP3 format.
    
• Insert a blank CD into the drive.
• Select the audio you want to put on the CD. To do so, click on an item and drag it from the Player Library in the left pane of the window to the burn list in the right pane
  
• windows media player. The burning process will take several minutes. Once finished, your CD will eject automatically.
