Sound trigger to start cam recording

[MarkOBS]

My cameras have mics built in. Nothing new there.
How would I tell OBS to start recording when a mic picks up sound?
And can I set a certain mic threshold before it will start recording?

Thanks Jonathan this looks really promising!
I have set up a Macro to start Recording when the Mic in my scene/source is above 20% level.
At the moment though it's not triggering. Any tips?

Once your VAD software detects sound above a threshold, it could send a command via the OBS WebSocket plugin to start recording. You'd need some basic scripting knowledge (Python is popular for this).
