[@Corporate_Mommy]

This is THE best tutorial for anything mic related I've ever seen. Thank you so much!

[@Yuoaman]

Every time I have to set my OBS audio filters I find myself back at this video, one of the most succinct and easy to follow guides for getting my EQ settings just right.

[@monsterboner826]

THANK YOU SO MUCH! you literally lead me from point a to point b. You actually explained the different type of HZ and sounds you are dealing with. i took notes and tuned my Shure 7smb. After a year, I finally have an idea of this sort of stuff. thank you so much again!

[@PlentyAZach]

You are very welcome Bud! I always try to be as clear and easy to follow as I can be and I'm glad that was something that helped you out so much! :D Best of luck to you and have fun creating! :D

[@manasmehta1881]

That was a really cool guide and really detailed explainations! Was really helpful to understand the frequency and their impact on the sound. Thanks!

[@PlentyAZach]

I'm glad this helped you out Manas! Audio is a very subjective matter so that's why I tried to break it down rather than deal in absolutes like it has to been done in a certain manner. Have fun playing around and make sure you take some screen shots of settings you like before you change them in the quest for vocal perfection haha

[@littlekrissunshine]

I've spent so much time trying to understand this. Thank you SO much for explaining it all in detail!

[@PlentyAZach]

You are very welcome, Sunshine! :D I'm glad this video was helpful for you!

Excellent and comprehensive guide, can't believe it only has a few thousand views. This is the good stuff!

[@PlentyAZach]

I appreciate the compliment! and we'll get there eventually haha I still got a lot of work to do but I'll keep trying my best to make good stuff for you all :)

[@Tshirtstorm]

Dude... Top quality tutorial here. This EQ and your how to, was perfect! We're just starting to stream our clothing print on demand business, so I have to walk around our shop and run our printers. But my Bluetooth headset sounded so thin and tiny on our KZbin streams, I was embarrassed and trying to find a better headset. But I did EXACTLY what you had for each band setting, and it made a tiny but noticeable difference. So I kept bumping all the db settings up by 3 each time and around +12 db for 1 band and -9db for 2 band and so forth, the mic sounded SO MUCH BETTER!!! I'm very happy and everyone with OBS should watch this tutorial of yours to make their mic sound much much better.

[@PlentyAZach]

I appreciate the compliment and success story here Bud! :D it's always good to hear that my content was able to help others :) and yea Bluetooth mics can be super hard to get just right as they usually make some compromises in order to send the audio via Bluetooth. but with a bit of trial and error you can always make it work! the best mic we can ever have is the one we already own! :D

[@Aboveup]

Now my EQ should have made my very nasal voice sound a bit better. I will test in the next live streams and video recordings and we will see if finally I have reached a decent result. Thanks and have a nice day!

[@PlentyAZach]

Really good video, I learned a couple of things from it,but God... you are talking about a de-esser and this video really really neeeds one!

[@PlentyAZach]

It's funny to me as to my ears I don't hear a lot of harsh sibilance but I know my headphones have a fairly flat response curve in that zone. Audio engineering is such a subjective act at times as I only have so many headphones I can check for different sounds on. But in the future I'll try to watch that zone a more carefully to make sure there is no harshness there 👍

You are so underrated. Thank you for this great tip. One quick question though, will my keyboard typing test still be heard around 70hz?

[@PlentyAZach]

I appreciate the compliment! :D as for your keyboard, the sounds of your keyboard could still come through. You would have to do a test of your audio to see if you can still hear it and how it compares to your voice. If you are hearing too much, you could also add a very narrow cut right at that 70hz range to help drop more of that noise off.

While this video had been very Helpful and I am thankful for it since it is halping me understand a bit more. I was curious. if you ever either before, or after explored doing this with various kinds of Mics in the last two years?

[@TheNamesJT]

I wish there was a free automatic eq plugin that automatically listens to your voice and makes the best config for you like we have ai technology wouldn't be surprised if this is already out there.

[@PlentyAZach]

I would love that so much! It can be hard for sure though to trial and error your way through EQing and all the fun of audio processing haha. hopefully some day that'll be made, especially with all the AI stuff out there it's only a matter of time.

[@finalmakerr1]

Judging by Nvidia SDK it’s won’t come anytime soon imo their rnnoise is a joke in compare to OBS one!

[@danielbrenjuk7291]

As far as I'm aware, I know fl studio has an ai plugin which does that, but only for prerecorded audio. But I'm pretty sure you could just look at what it did and copy it over to your live filters. But it does cost money.

[@ptbempire]

Guess I'll add this to my equaliser apo plugins

[@PlentyAZach]

Heck yes! I use equalizerAPO and reaper plugins to great effect! a wonderful set of software tools bud!

[@MAMMOTH101]

Thanks that helped my stream alot. i do have some question about getting rid of more echo. kind of in a spot where i cant get foam at the moment.

[@PlentyAZach]

You could try doing a very selective EQ subtraction. Basically take a very narrow band and boost it by like 12 to 15db and listen for frequency ranges that amplify that echo. Once found switch from that boost to a -4db or so cut to try and pull some of that sound out of your stream mix! I hope this helps bud!

[@creativecraving]

This EQ stuff is DEEP magic. I tried playing around on my own based on that chart, and it either sounded bad or didn't have an effect. Then, when I copied exactly what you had, it worked slightly better than without it. For sure, I'm not tuning for my own voice, yet, but \_O_/ it's still too hard to grok.

[@MrRusenov]

Simple the best!

[@zahalan_]

Hello! This is honestly a fantastic tutorial, although I find it hard to follow it, because I do not see the waveforms of my own voice and therefore I do not know what precisely to adjust. What can I do?

[@diiegopc]

I already use Reaper as a DAW, do I need to install all the reaplugs again? In OBS I can see some plugins but not the ones from reaper

[@GiggleByteGuy]

Much love to you. The video is dope. Can you do a voice over recording tutorial on Ocen Audio. I feel like it's such a great competitor to audacity that no one talks about much in the industry. Thanks in advance

[@PlentyAZach]

I've not heard of Ocen Audio but I'll take a look at it for sure! especially to get our of the Adobe bubble haha

[@UNOborderline]

Hi. Are these settings good for podcast on a condensor mic like the Rode NT2a? I have high pass filter on mic. So, could i simply add the number 6 band for the 16k hertz frequency without adding a second equalizer? Or can i use the noise suppression for the 17k hertz instead a second EQ? :)

[@PlentyAZach]

these settings could work for podcasting on a condenser mic as that's actually the way I use my condensor mic. You'll have to tune the settings for your voice but it'd be a solid starting point in my eyes. as for the HPF, you could add another band and just apply the HPF to the same EQ if you wanted to. I separated mine into two for book keeping really haha it's really up to you no harm in it either way really.

[@yazn6]

bro you are insane - you did it like a pro. thanks one Q : why we add the second EQ and lowered the post 20k meanwhile the first EQ we increased it with high pass

[@PlentyAZach]

Dr. Psychosis, first I'm glad you liked the video and I appreciate the vote of confidence! :) Secondly, to answer your question: The first EQ that I use alter my vocal frequencies without altering the core of the audio signal coming in. this way before I do any high pass (HP) or low pass (LP) filters, I can make sure I like how my voice sounds. Once I've done all of that I like to then send that signal into a roll off EQ filter that applies those HP and LP filters. On the first EQ, I start to bring up my high end Hz around 5000-10000Hz as there is still a lot of vocal sound from 10kHz-20kHz. But, I want to roll off starting around 18kHz with a LP to bring down any super high pitch ringing that my mic can pick up and transmit to the content that I can't hear. The main area I want to bring out and brighten is the 5000Hz-18kHz range. everything above that for voices is just noise really. So applying this boost before I roll off ensures that I'm brighten the area I want without ALSO brightening that super high pitched hiss and squeals. Also, I use a second EQ as I find it easier to manage from a book keeping perspective. you could also just add 2 more bands to the first EQ and apply a LP and HP filter right there. Just 2 different ways to achieve the same effect is all. Hope this helps bud and feel free to ask if you need any more clarification :)

[@brianlion2776]

the yellow lines aren't showing up for me and this is a fresh install and obs detects my mic just fine

[@Horsaz]

Still a super easy and amazing guide to follow! As a complete noob though I have to ask, I'll still need to set up a noise suppression filter/noise gate and limiter to get rid of background noise like my keyboard and other noises right? I know you said that the second EQ was supposed to remove those but I'm still having background noise appear. What would you recommend?

[@PlentyAZach]

Hey Horsaz! So think of EQing as a way to color in a coloring book picture. the overall content of your audio is there, all you are doing is shaping it by adding and removing some colors. the rolloffs are more for very low hum and high pitch noise, keyboard clicks are unfortunate not going to be completely removed. so some things that can help are: - Adding a noise suppression filter as the first choice, I have a video detailing different noise suppression methods, but TL;DR any of them will work, just depends on what you like best, they them out and see what you like :) - after I get to the EQ is generally where I'd put a noise gate/expander. I use reagate from the makers of the software in this video. I use attack 1ms, hold 500ms, release 600ms, gate of -40db. adjust these to what you might like but that will eliminate a lot of the quiet sounds. - You could also try using a quieter keyboard, I use oil king black switches that don't have any click other than the bottom out of the key. if you are using really clicky keys, they will always be heard. that's not a bad thing either just depends on what you are going for :) but any none clicky key would work at reducing this sound. Hope this helps bud! :)

[@Pyramidalist]

Sry ... but how do you hear your voice on headset w h i l e changing eq-curve - I always have to record - play - check - change a bit and rotate through this process for hours ...

[@guardiangarasu]

This was a wonderful and well explained video. Sadly, it also showed me that streaming isnt something I should be doing. Not a single setting sounds good with my voice.

[@Kordanor]

Thank you for the overview! For the example you are showing at 8:30 it implies that you actually hear what is currently recorded. But I don't. I mean I could move it a tiny bit, record it and listen to it (or something like that) but that would actually be much more effort than to just listen to it live. Am I assuming correct that you listen to it life? And if yes, how would you enable that? Don't see any option in the EQ or OBS to do that. I mean its possible in windows I guess but then It would probably bypass the EQ.

[@Kordanor]

Ah, found it. You need to set a device as "Monitoring device" in the main options menu, and then in the menu where you define tracks, delays and whatnot, you can tell to output to that device. Just in case anyone else is wondering. ^^ Now I'll get through your tutorial step by step :D

[@PlentyAZach]

that was exactly what I was going to recommend for you haha I'm glad that you found it though! :D happy creating bud and best of luck! :D

[@SantodosAssassinos]

Great video I have a doubt, because I'm starting, about audio equalization. Can I use Reaper Equalizer directly on windows or Voicemeeter Banana for example? So my ts and other programs come out with a better voice

[@PlentyAZach]

Look into a program called Equalizer APO. this lets you use VSTs on a system wide base. I haven't used it a lot myself but I know it's very strong!

[@MajeztikFilmz]

Very informative video. I have a HyperX QuadCast S Mic and it doesn't seem to apply the plugins as I change them, I see the waveform shifting but when i go mic test I hear no differences. Anyone know what's up ?

[@PlentyAZach]

main thing I can think of is to make sure that obs is selecting the correct mic in the properties. I know sometimes it can change and grab another mic on the pc that isn't the right one. other issues could be that the filter isn't actually turned on. past that without seeing your setup I'm not sure what else it could be other than maybe the filter is on the wrong source?

[@emanuelelarosa2030]

Do you have any way to force the pitch to skyrocket a lil? MY gf is trying to sound even more girly to try being a vtuber

[@CrazyKillinit]

my main problem with my mic is the Sibilance , I was waiting to hear about the talk for the deesser but think you might of forgot to add it in this video or if there is a link to it i would love to see how to use a deesser but great video over all man good job

[@PlentyAZach]

Crazy, you are correct, I forgot to take that part out when I was going through the video! That mistake was fully on me there, I don't have a video yet but I'm currently making an updated 2023 video for every type of filter I would recommend for content creators but it'll take me a bit to shot and edit all of that. In the mean time I'd recommend trying this: Set up a multiband compressor, turn off all bands except for the 3rd band ( or really any of the ones in the middle). Make sure there is no auto-gain make up enabled. From there, make the remaining band's top frequency around 9500Hz, put the band in front of that one to like 7500Hz (so band 3 enabled, 9500Hz, band 2 disabled, 7500Hz) This will make the 3rd enabled band cover the frequency range of 7500Hz - 9500Hz which is generally where the Sibilance is. From there, set a ratio to 3:1 or 4:1 (personal preference) and set the threshold to around -20dB to start. set the threshold to a more negative number if you want more compression on your Sibilance (be careful as too much will give you an artificial lisp as it'll cut way to much of the S sound). Hopefully , that makes sense, and I'm using the Reaper mutiband compressor to do this. if you already installed the filters from this video you'll have it, it's called "REAXComp" in the Vst folder :)
