Understanding audio is crucial to becoming a content creator on Twitch, and it’s also one of the biggest barriers because people can’t tell when it is bad, or if they can they don’t know how to fix it.

Before I became an online Content Creator and Streamer, I was in the film industry for over six years, and audio was always something that stumped people despite it being really easy once you get the basics of it down.

Today I am going to help you get set up and sound like a pro on your stream.

To truly make your microphone sound amazing, you’re going to want to learn to use filters in your broadcast software. Now all three of these filters exist in slobs and obs, I’d recommend using them almost all the time, They are Noise Suppression, A limiter, and a Noise gate.

The style of this video is similar to Alpha Gaming and Gaming Careers in parts. A large influence on this series has come from content creators like Wild4games and Nutty.

    When you already ordered the Air Cleaner Throat Guzzler 6000 😳
  • I NEVER THOUGHT THAT I COULD HAVE A GOOD QUALITY MICROPHONE BUT THESE FILTERS HELPED MAKE THE QUALITY SOOOO MUCH BETTER. THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS!!!!!
  • Pretty sure it's only a matter of time before this channel blows up. Such good content on every video. So so helpful, thanks!!!
  • @Mark_Manning
    OMG! The supression instantly helped me! Like my mic picks a lot of keyboard, mouse sounds and it got instant fixed when i enabled it. thank you so much!
  • @noahballard4244
    Dude omg thank you for this video. You did a great job breaking down the mysteries of microphones, and audio as a whole. Thank you for making this a more approachable subject and empowering people to educate themselves!
  • @zu3167
    I honestly did not expect this to make as big of a difference as it did... Like watching my vods back before I was thinking to myself like "oh cool my mic sounds pretty damn good right off the bat" and then I went through and did all of this (because obviously there is ALWAYS room for improvement) and the difference is insane. It sounds so much better now!!
  • @stayhydrated-v1
    I've used this as a reference about 4 times now just for recording and it makes such a huge difference. Many thanks for the great tutorial
  • @oezaxs
    Just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for pointing out device leveling in system sounds. Been trying to get my XLR mic to not sound grainy as all hell by adding filters, messing with the EQ on my mixer, and going through tons of tutorials trying to fix it but no one else pointed that out and it made a massive difference just changing that setting. My audio quality has been bugging me to no end because of that and I finally understand why. Thank you again!
  • @m13t
    this was literally the most helpful video to ever exist in mankind, i was trying to download a bunch of different virtual mixers for my mic that were so much more complicated, and this just simplified everything so much more. thank you for existing i love you so much
  • @threebie7311
    Hey Eljay, thanks so much for this video it’s actually helped me a bunch as audio is something i’ve always struggled with! I’ve applied what i needed to my current mic and i plan to buy a little bit of a better one once i’m in a better position too :D
  • @vulexsea
    I've been having some serious audio issues and I'm so grateful for this video! I've been clicking buttons and trial and erroring to see what worked, but this helped put actual knowledge to what each function does. Thank you!!
  • @Nemesystemic
    I can't tell you how appreciative I am of this video alone. Every so often an update on SLOBS screws with the settings and I forget about what I need to tinker with on my Noise gate so I don't end up with a choppy audio track. Eljay, you're a real one bro. Thank you.
  • @lortiz14
    This instantly improved my mic quality!! Thank you for this!! 💕
  • @MisaShowz
    I finally got a pc and I'm trying my best to set everything up. This vid is very helpful, thanks for sharing the secrets ;D
  • @ashlinii3782
    This video fixed everything for me! I just switched from console to pc for streaming and gaming purposes and I'm learning so many new things, thank you so much!
  • @TheAlieann
    Your channel has been amazing for learning the world of tech/YouTube/twitch! Thank you!! Wishing everyone the best of luck on their journeys - we got this!
  • @MaraLetsPlay
    Just wanted to say THANK YOU for all the tips! I have the same mic as you and I don't even want to confess how long I've streamed without any of those filters, or even knowing that they exist. Can't thank you enough! :D
  • INCREDIBLE video. Improved my streams mic quality SO much. Viewers asked if I got a new mic. Same AT2020+ USB I've had for 6 years! Awesome videos man, just wanted to say thank you for this and the web cam one, incredible tips!
  • @Ewok8080
    How have I lived without out having these filters on for the best part of a year!!!! Thank you dude. Super helpful
