OBS Studio
About OBS Studio
OBS Studio is free and open-source software from the OBS Project for video recording and live streaming. It captures and mixes video and audio in real time, letting you build scenes from window and display captures, game capture, webcams, capture cards, images, text and browser sources, then record to a file or stream to popular platforms.
The Windows release supports Windows 10 and 11 and is available as an installer or ZIP. You can create unlimited scenes with custom transitions, apply per-source audio filters such as noise gate, noise suppression and gain, load VST plugins, preview changes in Studio Mode and rearrange the modular dock interface to suit your workflow.
