Obs studio not recording audio - best obs studio alternative for PC?

ShareX is also very stable in recording, and there are few problems with audio recording failure. What's more, it takes up very little system resources and will not slow down your computer, so it is particularly suitable for those occasions that require quick screen and audio recording, such as when making tutorials or game videos, making the whole process smoother.
ShareX is a powerful and free OBS Studio alternative for PC, but it does have some shortcomings. Although the interface seems simple, the settings are hidden deep, especially the audio and screen recording settings, which are not very intuitive at first. In addition, there are occasional minor bugs, such as audio desynchronization or stuttering after recording.
If you need a tool to get started quickly, ShareX may not be as convenient as other alternatives in terms of user experience.
Sure! ShareX is definitely a solid choice if you're looking for an OBS Studio alternative for Windows 11, especially for quick screen and audio recordings. But OBS has a really nice audio mixer which lets you adjust volumes and balance different audio sources while you're recording. ShareX lacks this feature, so you'll need to ensure your audio levels are set correctly before you start recording. This can sometimes lead to issues with volume levels if you're not careful.
