    What's up guys.

    I was curious as to what your favorite programs are to use to record facecam/mic audio separately from from gameplay/game audio and what programs you use to put them together. I currently use OBS, but I don't know if it's possible to record the webcam and game videos separately just from the one program.

    Thanks :)

    I use action for gameplay and free screencast for webcam sometimes. It works good, but for me its better recording both in the same place.
    Btw? do you have a 1280x1024 monitor?

    My monitor is 3440 by 1440 hehe.. I generally record games in windowed mode to keep them from being stretched. Most of my videos I've just recorded in one place, but it would be nice to have the power to clip out certain portions of webcam for just gameplay, or stretch the webcam in various places independent of the game footage. :)

    Currently I am using OBS but I have heard people using camtasia to capture their webcam and audio. Then taking the two files and combining them in an editing software.

    OBS Multiplatform and Windows 10 Camera for facecams some of the time. It works well recording from my PS4 & Elgato setup. But when I try to record PC games OBS MP and W10 camera slow my FPS too much.

    I'll give Shadowplay a try when recording and then use the W10 cam program and see if that works.

    I've just got my webcam and luckily it has software built in to record separately. While I use audacity for audio and Bandicam for Gameplay. Finally I combine them all in Sony Vegas.
