How to remove keyboard sound in Streamlabs?
Removing unwanted keyboard noise from your microphone audio in Streamlabs is commonly achieved by applying an audio filter specifically designed for noise reduction.
The most effective way to remove keyboard clicking sounds in Streamlabs, according to the reference provided, is by utilizing the Noise Suppression filter and ensuring it is configured correctly. This filter actively works to reduce background noise, such as keystrokes, allowing your voice to come through more clearly.
Follow these steps within Streamlabs to add and configure the necessary audio filter for your microphone:
- Locate your audio source (your microphone) in the Sources or Mixer panel.
- Click the gear icon next to your microphone source. This will open the settings menu for that audio device.
- From the settings menu, select Filters.
- In the Filters window, click the + sign to add a new filter.
- From the list of available filters, choose Noise Suppression.
- Once the Noise Suppression filter is added, you will see options to configure it. Change the method from the default (often Speex) to RNNoise.
Why Choose RNNoise?
The reference highlights that RNNoise is the recommended method for Noise Suppression over Speex. This is because RNNoise is a higher quality algorithm that is significantly more effective at reducing background noise like keyboard clicks.
By switching to RNNoise, you are implementing a more advanced noise reduction method that can dramatically decrease or eliminate the sound of your keyboard in your stream or recording. The reference notes that with RNNoise, "you won't hear your keyboard clicking."
Benefits of Using Noise Suppression
Applying the Noise Suppression filter, especially with the RNNoise method, is particularly useful when:
- Playing games, such as MOBA's, where keyboard activity is frequent.
- You need to talk to your audience or teammates without your keyboard sounds overpowering your voice.
- You want cleaner audio overall, free from distracting background noise.
By following these steps, you can effectively reduce or eliminate keyboard sounds from your microphone audio in Streamlabs, leading to a much cleaner and more professional sound for your viewers.
