Stream audio fights with chat-to-speech, alerts, music beds, and game audio for the same headroom. Pre-processing your alert sounds, music, and saved clips so they all hit the same loudness keeps your mix predictable. And on Twitch, where listeners can drop in mid-stream, consistent levels matter more than perfect dynamics.
Compress WAV to high-quality 320 kbps MP3.
Convert lossless FLAC to portable MP3 for any player.
Trim silence and dead air from any audio clip.
Increase loudness on quiet recordings safely.
Auto-remove silent gaps from podcasts and recordings.
Create seamless audio loops from any sample.
Match your alert sounds to your stream's average voice level. Typically around -16 to -14 LUFS. Music beds should sit 12-18 dB below your voice so the chat can hear you over the bed.
MP3 is fine for alert sounds and music. Saves disk space and OBS handles them identically. Use WAV only if you're doing real-time audio routing with low-latency requirements.
