*user interface*

The main user interface is organized into 5 sections…

*SCENES*

*SOURCES*

*AUDIO MIXER*

*TRANSITIONS*

*CONTROLS*

.

Scenes are groups of sources like live and recorded video, text and audio

.

The mixer panel lets the user mute the audio, and adjust the volume through virtual faders, and apply effects by pressing the cogwheel next to the mute button.

.

The control panel has

options for starting/stopping a stream or recording,

a button to transform OBS to a more professional Studio Mode (see below),

a button for opening the settings menu

and a button to exit the program

.

The upper section has a live video preview, used to monitor and edit the current scene

.

The user interface can be switched to a variety of themes, including both dark and light themes, depending on what the user prefers

.

When in Studio Mode, there are 2 canvas preview windows,

the left one for modifying and preview of non-active scenes,

while the right window is for preview of the live scene

(“Preview” and “Program” respectively).

.

In the middle there is a secondary transition button, allowing for transitioning to the non-active scene in the left window using user-defined “quick transitions”

.

There are some simple tutorials on the Internet that show how to use OBS Studio, including more in-depth tutorials designed to cover every aspect of the application
