Streaming 101: Introduction to OBS (Patreon)

Here’s an early access peek at a new series I’m working on. I’d like to call it Streaming 101. In it I’ll cover not only the OBS software, and how to start your first stream, but also many of the peripheral aspects like subscriber overlays, chat bots, differences between YouTube and Twitch/Mixer.

Essentially I’ll sum up what I’ve learned from a whole years worth of experience in the World of Streaming.

I have 5 episodes ready and edited, but I anticipate his to be highly successful and hence I’ll spend a bit more time on the audio mix than usual. I’ll release the series here first before making it available on YouTube. Until with time I’ll leave the ads off so you don’t get pestered by them :-)

I’m planning on recording a separate intro for the series, so excluding that, here’s what I have so far:

• Introduction to OBS (this episode, 101)
• Webcam and Overlays (102)
• Capturing desktop and game apps (103)
• Audio capturing and monitoring (104)
• Audio Compression, noise reduction and side chain ducking (105)

If you have any feedback before it’s release, do let me know below.
