Record gameplay and voice separate

[LtGeneralStore]

Hello everyone!

I want to record my gameplay audio and voice audio in separate audio files. I have fraps and I was trying to use Audacity but I can't seem to get it to work. Any advice from anyone? I'd like to stick with programs I have but if I need to change I will.
Thank you!

You can try using Camtasia or Mixcraft and record seperatly! I've done it before with Mixcraft and it worked perfectly and it was easy to mix the audio too!

Fraps and Audacity worked for me...can your editing program record audio?

I can't seem to find out how to change the hotkey for record on audacity...

I use AVS video converter.

I use OBS for recording gameplay, gameplay audio and my facecam but my voice audio seperately through audacity (So I can sync it up properly to my lips moving). As for using audacity, I normally hit the record button before I start recording the gameplay and then just cut it down afterwards to get rid of the long silence at the start. Haven't ever used a hotkey on audacity before haha

This is exactly what I do too! Works wonderfully.

Do you two just alt tab out hit record and then alt tab back into the game?

You can do voice and game sound on differant tracks through bandicam. It's what I use. Works well to.

That, or start recording before I launch the game

Be sure that your headset/microphone is selected when you start to record using Audacity.

If you use Fraps and Audacity, all you need to do is hit record on Audacity before you launch the game.

Then in order to sync the audio, click a menu button that makes noise, and say click. Then all you need to do is align those two points. You can do it several times if need be to make it easier.

Alternatively, you could use a program like Dxtory instead of Fraps which allows for multiple audio tracks.

I know Milliris Action can separate voice and the audio from your PC, but the program costs about $30 USD...

I use Elgato to record my in game video, in game audio, and my friends Voice Audio. And then I record My Voice with Quick time and my Yeti Mic. (I use Mac) so it's all pretty easy. The Elgato software is awesome!

So when I'm all done I have 4 files.

1. The video file
2. The game sound (music, sound effects etc)
3. My friends voices all on one audio file
4. My voice on its own file
