# Set Up OBS Studio for Screen Sharing and Recording in Learnyst Live Classes

## OBS Studio allows you to share your screen, webcam, and microphone in a live class while simultaneously recording the session on your computer. By connecting OBS Virtual Camera to Learnyst Live Classes, you can create a professional teaching experience for your learners.

- This video shows the complete process on how to set up OBS Studio for screen sharing and recording in Learnyst Live Classes

- Open the recording folder to verify that the local copy of the recording has been saved successfully.

To avoid audio and video synchronization issues, use both your **camera and microphone** from the same platform.

For example, use both through **OBS Studio** or both through **Learnyst SuperLive**.

If you use the camera from OBS and the microphone from SuperLive (or vice versa), you may experience audio and video sync issues during the live class.
