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.

Hey is the overlay pack available yet? it looked really good i am a free time streamer not dedicating alot of money/time just for fun but would like to make the most of my community. I appreciate all the tips.
@@mwr86118 Hey! Look through the channel, it's out and the tutorial is all there!
Fantastic and helpful. Removing music on the demos would be better, however.
@streamscheme you did great man. Note going to lie I was waiting for the “if you want to sound good you need xyz things” and the fact that you didn’t do that and also time stamped the video for people (I watched it all twice haha) is great. Good flippin job mate, for real. Keep it up. You were authentic, not pushing promotions, and sincerely trying to just help people so you got
a quick subscription from me. You’re a rare breed my friend, thank you.
been wondering why my voice sounded so soft and lame on streams lol. Thanks bro.
When you already ordered the Air Cleaner Throat Guzzler 6000 😳
Oh damn! We got a rich guy over here! :P
oh no oh no oh no no no no no
😂😂😂
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!!!!!
Glad to help! I’m really proud of this video!
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!
Glad it helped! Heck yeah mate!
Pretty sure it's only a matter of time before this channel blows up. Such good content on every video. So so helpful, thanks!!!
Thanks so much for the kind words! I really appreciate it! I hope the video helped!
@mechanical rooster I wish I had it! Thanks man!
I agree. Just wanted to thank you for the videos wanted to start streaming and had little knowledge on obs and setting up my mic and your videos have been very helpful. The quality of my stream is going to be better than what i could've accomplished on my own. Again thank you for the time spent making these. 🙏💪
@@SunOrRiver Hey! No worries! Just glad I can be helpful for others!
@@SunOrRiver I completely agree with you. I just started streaming and although it's mostly just for fun, I still want some growth and these tips help the quality of my stream so much.
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!
Heck yeah! Glad you found it so helpful! Thanks for the kind comment, it’s really good to hear!
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
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!
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
I’m glad! I wanted it to be simple and easy for everyone!
This instantly improved my mic quality!! Thank you for this!! 💕
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!
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!!
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!!
Blows me away every time as well!
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
thanks man. really really helpful and easy to follow
This helped a ton. Thank you so much
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
Glad I could help! I love this video but sadly it doesn't get seen as much as the others, so it really is just our secret!
I wanna say a massive thank you to stream scheme you have helped me so much and me just having the equipment and the knowledge to be able to launch my first stream is a dream!! i owe a lot to you!!
You owe me nothing at all, just happy to help :)
How have I lived without out having these filters on for the best part of a year!!!! Thank you dude. Super helpful
really helpful stuff man. Thank you
Seeing as how im getting a mic from xmas this video is a godsend so I can use the mic out the bat. Thank you sir!!
Nice! Glad to be helpful!
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
Glad the video was helpful! That is so great to hear!
i actually used to watch your streams time ago lmao didnt think id see you here too
Thank you so much! Amazing vid!
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.
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!
I am so glad, thanks Waldo! Great to hear! :)
Hey! I love your videos and advice. I try to implement all your tips and take your words to heart. Just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to help others!
Hey! I really appreciate you taking the time to comment such kind words! It really does mean the world to me that so many people have been helped even a little bit!
Thanks! This helped me so much. Kudos bro.
FANTASTIC tutorial, thank you so much
Love the video lj!
Glad you enjoyed it Thanks for the support!
Holy crap man, I know I'm kinda late to the party but damn this helped A LOT. My mic sounds 10000x better. THANK YOU, you made my day
Nice! I am glad!
this was SO INCREDIBLY HELPFUL. THANK Youuuuuuuuuuu.
I know this video is a few years old and Streamlabs OBS looks a little different, but I managed to fix my sound thanks to you. I really learned something and truly appreciate it. If you ever get the chance to figure out how we can stream with a super ultra wide 49" Samsung g9 5120 x 1440 I would really appreciate that info. Thanks again!
My mic still doesn't sound good yet, but I actually used these tips to make my computer's built-in mic sound a lot less terrible! Like magic!
What mic are you using?
@@StreamScheme At the moment, my built-in mic. It's extremely unideal, but I haven't been able to get my hands on an affordable usb mic yet. Still searching on that front.
Scratch that, I just found a 15 year old USB mic that we used to use to play High School Musical on PS2, and it actually sounds amazing! XD Who would’ve known?
Such a great guide. I dont comment on videos usually but I t had to throw my appreciation and thanks!!
Not only did you demonstrate step by step the what to dol.. you gave a really well structured & communicated education and explanation of the why.
The understanding of how it all fits together is so important, and you nailed it.
Great work & Many thanks!
THIS WAS AMAZING THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Everything you said was super informative
Thank you! A really nice, to the point video. I wish more channels would make tutorials like this, explaining simple things in a simple matter like you did here. You don't have to be an audio engineer for this but some people act like it^^"
Glad it was helpful! :) Thanks for the kind words!
This video is amazing.
I'm guessing 90% of noises in my surrounding are gone. I'm not using a professional mic, but it definitely helps with laptop webcam too.
It used to record birds, people talking and cars on the street. Now its gone.
THANK YOU so much.
So glad to hear that!
This was very helpful. I’ve been watching a bunch of your videos and you have made recording/streaming much easier for me. Thank you!
thank you soooooo much!!! all your videos are helping me so much lol
You have helped me greatly!!! 💖💖💖💞💞 I was having problems with my mic quality and I thought I had to replace the new headphones my father bought me for Christmas :"^) I never knew that I could solve it so easily by going into my device properties! 🥰🥰 I am grateful to come across your channel and that you are kind enough to share your knowledge!!!
Glad I could help! I am really REALLY proud of this video so I am so happy it helped you!
Nobody has told me to mess with the settings on my desktop.i think it solved my issue. I had an issue of the webcam mic being picked up as well as my headset and it just sounded bad. I disabled it in the desktop audio settings and it sounds more clear. I am new to all of this software and streaming but your videos have been very helpful.
I am so glad it helped! The desktop issue is something I didn't find anywhere! I had an issue with it early on so it was important to me to make sure I added it.
Very helpful thanks for doing what you do!
I cant wait to utilize your tips to improve my content. I know audio is something I've struggled with since day 1. Thank you for what you do. Also i laughed when you said farm sim because that and American truck sim are my main content at the moment. Keep up the great work and ill keep watching.
I can’t believe I just found this after 9 months of streaming... can’t wait to show my new mic quality to my viewers LOL
Heck yeah! Glad it was helpful!
Hey, I found this video after streaming since 2015 :-(. Better late than never, right?
I’m surprised you didn’t mention using the compressor for audio ducking. I use this so that my voice and and game audio/background music come out to the same level, but when I speak the game audio/background music lowers automatically. Been working very well. I also used some EQ and compressor filtering on my iPhone earbuds mic to make it sound almost as good as a decent condenser mic. That’s next on the list to buy, but it has me sounding so much better in the mean time.
Great advice, honestly I tried to keep it incredibly simple. Basic audio and a few filters that help deal with the major issues I see people having.
It’s great you’re researching how to make it the best it can be before spending heaps on a mic as well! That’s awesome!
Your channel has been amazing for learning the world of tech/CZcams/twitch! Thank you!! Wishing everyone the best of luck on their journeys - we got this!
literally really helpful and super cool video
I personally use the Turtle Beach Recon 50P headset and it sounds amazing with the right settings for only $25USD
Hey there ya go!
You forgot to mention the filter that makes your voice sound less deep and less Irish ☘️
That’s the advanced class!
No no, more deep, more Irish. Kind of a SepticCorpse if you will.
Thank You so Much!!! 100% Improvement in my audio
Great video and it was super helpful!
My audio: fine for 5 minutes
The fan: FFFFFUUFFFFFF
Hey but we manage to fix it really quick with those filters I show!
I have literally been using my microphone backwards for like 9 months..... thank you sir!
It happens :)
I made a few videos where my microphone have somehow gotten flipped around.
Came here to see if i could learn some new stuff. I knew all the basics but just the way you explain things and show them. Top notch job! You make some amazing content!
Hey LJ from one Aussie to another thanks for providing all the hints and tutorials you do, it's made a massive difference to my streaming and gaining followers and allows me to provide better content along the way. Thanks mate, you bloody legend.
Where I live there’re non stop whistling frogs and crickets at night 😭 The obvious fix to this is to stream during the day but I’m a student + athlete so there’s barely anytime. Hopefully this video helps
It will 100% help with those problems, the microphone filters will go so far!
@@StreamScheme it’s been working pretty well so far. Thanks again 🙏🏽
I'm using the snowball ice and I find that even with the noise suppression filter on, my keyboard and mouse clicking still comes through very loud. tried using the expander and noise gate but they both cause words and ends of sentences to be dropped :/
Is your Microphone rested on your desk?
Thanks a lot! I was having fan noise issues all the time using the Noise Suppression and Noise Gate helps remove it a lot.
This is helpful for both streaming and recording. Thanks for the help.
Okay I did all your steps. but how do I get my teammates to hear me when I play with them. I’m using a microphone with a usb. I can hear the audio when I’m streaming but when I’m with teammates it’s like I’m muted.
That depends on the game or what you’re using to talk to them.
Check your in game microphone settings or if you’re using discord those.
Good luck!
0:28 it's 5:43am PST, so sure you are. ;)
Timezones are crazy, I normally would be live right now because its 12PM in AUS and I end around now, but I had an early one tonight.
This helped out a ton!! Big thanks
I’m so glad! I think this video is the one I’m most proud of! So I appreciate the kind words!
Thank you so much Eljay. Your tips and advice are a big help.
Unrelated topic, but it said “stream scheme viewers watched it” so I’m hoping that you did too. Did you watch Devin Nash’s “never accept twitch affiliate” video? If so, what do you think about it? Do you agree?
Great video bro it makes since not to be affiliate if u wish to use ur content elsewhere .
this helped me so much thank you
AJ man! thank you so much, it was talking to front of my mic, little positioning was all I needed to make it sound 100x better, sounded so far way
I am looking into streaming and I am currently watching all your videos I can to prepare before hand, thank you for making these easy to follow and entertaining videos

As a new streamer, this was a huge help! On my first stream I had friends commenting on my mic audio sounding "crispy" all thanks to this guide right here!
Been putting this off for way too long. Finally watched the video and got my audio improved. Appreciate it!
Hope it helps! :)
I have been trying to figure out how to fine tune my mic, and this video definitely helped😁
Big ups to you for this! Had suppression on and still had white noise behind my voice whenever I spoke slightly, helped me out tons
thanks! this has been really helpful for me!
I am so glad! :) Good luck mate!
Thank you for the clear and simple understanding regarding open and close. You did me a great service for my stream. Much appreciated!
So glad it helped mate! Thanks for the kind words!
Thank you so much Eljay! This helped me alot on trying to balance my mic, music and game sound! ♥
thank you!!! this helped so much
Glad to help! :)
Thank you so much for this! I had my first stream a few days ago and even though i've asked a friend to check if my volumes are fine i watched the vod and didn't hear myself at all. Filters!? Saved my mind from going crazy, thank you!
You just save my life with this video!!! thanks so much!!!
I have been needing that filter for keyboard clicking for so long! Thank you!
No worries! Glad it helped!
Thanks 🖤 Sure u helped me to grow faster with these settings. U helped with everything i wanted to know about audio.
Thank you. this audio quality is crazy !
Simple is always better! Glad it helped!
thank you so much man. it helped me alot
Glad it helped! :)
Your video was very helpful to me! I decided to leave out RTX Voice for the OBS built-in filters and your video helped me to understand which filters would best help me in this transition! Keep up the good work! :)
This review is totally crazy! Thanks
I love your approach to teaching this content. It is very easy to understand and I am going to apply this knowledge to future videos and when I begin streaming.
