| Value           | Description                    |
| --------------- | ------------------------------ |
| (integer value) | outbound audio bitrate in kbps |

## Details

Target audio bitrate and max bitrate for outgoing audio streams.

Allows the Director to set their outbound audio bitrate to be shared with guests at something like 160-kbps, while having the guests still be able to share their audio between other guests at the default audio bitrate of around 32-kbps. If the guest sets the audio bitrate ([`&proaudio=1`](https://docs.vdo.ninja/advanced-settings/audio-parameters/and-proaudio) or [`&audiobitrate=200`](https://docs.vdo.ninja/advanced-settings/audio-parameters/audiobitrate)) on the view link will override the publisher's `&outboundaudiobitrate` parameter.
