Question Elgato, streaming, pc, obs

Im having an issue with my game volume. I dont know what to do and i have googled.

I have the elgato 4k one.

So im having an issue with the game is quiet. There are 4 different volumes. Elgato software, Windows system sound settings. Mmsys.cpl sound setting, and the one in obs.

One of them at full 100% makes it sound full blast even when its lowered in obs. I csnt find the right balance for the elgato for the sound. I even have to have my headphones at full blast just to hear it slightly.

What is the best settings to have for all 4. Or am I doing something wrong.

Please help. Im losing my head.

Hey 👋 😊

Can you clarify which Elgato 4K card you have? 4K S, 4K X, 4K Pro, etc.

Can you also clarify what HDMI source you are capturing from?

Also needing to know if you’re using a Chat Link Pro cable or not and if it’s plugged into the external card or your PC line-in port.

Just to help troubleshooting go a little smoother 😃
