Why is Studio not showing my external microphone as an option?
Restream Studio can only show what your browser can detect. You can use our microphone test tool or this website to check if your microphone is detectable by your browser.
Check if your microphone is listed among the options on those tools. If yes, it will work in Restream Studio. If not, please consult with your microphone's manufacturer.
What can I do if I want to use multiple audio inputs?
What can I do if I want to use multiple audio inputs?
Studio only accepts one primary audio input. However, if you add an extra camera, you can use its built-in microphone as an additional audio source.
If you need more than that, you’ll need to combine multiple microphones into a single input before selecting it in Studio:
Windows: Use an audio mixer or virtual mixing software like VB Audio Cable.
Mac: Use the built-in Audio MIDI Setup tool to create a combined input device.

Try disabling Echo Cancellation and Noise Suppression, then enable Stereo.
If you’re using an external microphone with its own processing features or an audio mixer, we recommend disabling advanced audio settings in Studio. This helps prevent your device’s processing from clashing with Studio’s.
