-  * To avoid other sounds from your computer, any accidental noise, or if you’re providing comms alongside another commentator, you must split your audio so that only your game audio is broadcast. If you have your own method of doing this (different audio devices, Voicemeeter Banana) then you’re welcome to use it. If you’re new to audio splitting, we highly recommend using the [[https://github.com/bozbez/win-capture-audio|win-capture-audio]] plugin for OBS. This will allow you to capture the audio directly from your game without the need for virtual cables. Instructions can be found in the video guide.+  * To avoid other sounds from your computer, any accidental noise, or if you’re providing comms alongside another commentator, you must split your audio so that only your game audio is broadcast.
