How To Make A Soundboard In OBS... The EASY WAY! - OBS Plugin
Make a soundboard in OBS the easy way. This free OBS plugin runs your sounds directly inside OBS with mouse clicks or hotkeys, no Stream Deck needed.
A soundboard in OBS is dead simple with this plugin, and there is no third-party software or Stream Deck required. Everything runs directly inside OBS, and you can even trigger sounds with hotkeys.
Grab it from the OBS website, made by cg2121. You will need OBS 27.2 or newer or it will not load. I show the manual install: copy the two folders into your OBS Studio directory in Program Files, paste, and you are done.
Back in OBS, open the Soundboard dock, right click and turn on the toolbar, then dock it wherever suits your layout. Hit the plus to add a sound, name it, browse to your clip, and it lands straight in the list. Click it and it plays. There are volume controls and media controls in the right-click view menu, so you can pause, play, stop and reset a clip mid-way, which is handy if an alert comes in.
Top tip: add a compressor filter to even out clips that are too loud or too quiet. It normalises everything so your stream sounds more professional.
You can also monitor the soundboard through advanced audio properties, set it to mono, pan it, and choose which tracks it records to, so you can keep effects out of your VOD if you want.
Best bit is the hotkeys. Under Settings, Hotkeys you get a bind for each individual sound, so you can fire them off while you game, or let your audience trigger them.
