General

Does Studio work on a Mac?

Yes! Studio is browser-based, so it works on Mac, Windows, and most personal computers.

What browser should I use?

For the best experience, we recommend Google Chrome.

What are the best specs for studio?

• NVIDIA 30-series GPU (or equivalent)
• Ryzen 7 CPU (or equivalent)
• 16 GB Ram
• 25mbps Upload Sped

• NVIDIA 20-series GPU (or equivalent)
• Ryzen 5 CPU (or equivalent)
• 16 GB Ram
• 12mbps Upload Speed

How do I select a camera or audio source?

In the lower-left panel, click Add Input or Add Source, then choose the camera or audio device you want to use.

Why don’t I see any audio or video devices in the dropdown?

This usually happens for one of two reasons:

• Browser permissions aren’t enabled 
  Make sure your browser has permission to access your camera and microphone. 
• Another app is using your devices 
  Close all other programs using your camera or mic, then refresh Studio and log back in. Your sources should reappear.

How can I capture my screen or other sources?

• Screen Capture 
  Use Studio’s built-in screen capture to share a tab, window, or your full screen. 
• Device Capture 
  Use Add Device to select capture cards like the Elgato 4K X. 
• OBS 
  Use Add Device to select your OBS Virtual Camera.

How do I configure my OBS Virtual Camera?

In OBS, configure your scenes and click Start Virtual Camera.

Then, add it as a device in Studio and resize or crop as needed.

Recommended setup:

• Aspect ratio: 9:16 
• Resolution: 720 × 1280

If you’re multi-streaming, the Aitum Vertical plugin is a great option for managing a separate vertical canvas.

How do I configure my audio?

Because Studio runs in the browser, desktop audio can’t be imported directly.

We recommend using:

• A virtual audio cable, or 
• A virtual mixer (best option)

Our top recommendation for Windows users is Voicemeeter Banana.

How do I bring audio from OBS into Studio?

Many streamers route audio through OBS. To do this:

1. Set OBS audio monitoring to your virtual cable or mixer 
2. Add that same cable or mixer as an input source in Studio

Why do my viewers hear an echo during co-hosts, Boxes, or Battles?

This happens when Studio audio loops back into itself.

If Studio is outputting audio to the same virtual cable or mixer that’s also selected as an input source, it creates a feedback loop, resulting in echo.

Fix: Make sure Studio’s audio output and input are not the same source.

Why is my stream blurry?

Blurry streams are usually caused by one or more of the following:

• CPU usage 
  Check Task Manager to see if your system is overloaded. 
• Graphics settings 
  Lower in-game graphics. Remember, Studio streams at 720×1280, so optimize for that resolution.
• Bandwidth 
  Use a wired Ethernet connection when possible. Wi-Fi can be unstable. 
• Network or system load 
  Make sure other devices or apps aren’t using heavy resources. 
• Internet provider issues 
  Occasionally, upstream issues are outside our control. 
• Anti-virus software 
  Some anti-virus programs can slow down games or browsers. Add exceptions for your games and Chrome if needed.
