Remember our insanity setting of listening to our own voice? Slide that slider all the way to the top and your mic will not activate at all! Try it! Anything above that slider will activate your mic, anything below that slider will not. On the left side of your screen is the master control.
If you've got virtual cable set up correctly you'll now hear your voice. Then move to the listen tab and select "Listen to device." Hit apply and say something. It's VERY unnerving, so don't forget to undo this change when you're done!įirst, open your Sound Control Panel and right click on the Virtual Cable output in the recording devices tab. Next up we're going to make it so we can hear our own mic. Worry not, we're going to go through this line by line for the items you need to know. Now click the Light Host icon again and select Reagate and click "Edit" and you should be met with our terrifying image from above. So, left click on your Light Host icon and select the Cockos menu and add the reagate plugin to your chain.Īlso, you want to make sure that reagate is the first item on your list, so move it up above the Reafir-standalone. We're using Light Host as our DAW and ReaGate as our VST. Still, if you're tapping away taking notes on a call or spamming the WASD keys trying to get a frag while not talking, it's certainly nice to have. However, if you type and talk at the same time a noise gate will do nothing to prevent the keyboard noise from happening. This means if you set it up right NONE of your keyboard noise will come through, but when you talk your voice will. What is a noise gate?Ī noise gate is a type of filter that literally turns your mic off until it bypasses a certain threshold. The goal here is to minimize its impact without causing much distortion to your voice, but you'll probably never reach a point where your keyboard is "invisible." - especially if you're out there slamming your Cherry Blue switches in a fit of rage.
You can NOT just "remove keyboard noise" without removing other parts of the audio. We'll go over setting up noise gates and talking about ways to reduce or eliminate keyboard noise from your mic.īefore we start, let's set some expectations. Filters and gates are not magic. I know, a lot of this stuff looks pretty scary.īut rest assured, its not nearly as difficult as it looks. Please complete that tutorial before continuing on. This is a continuation of our article on noise reduction using Reafir and Light Host. While this method gives you full control over your noise gate, it may be easier to follow our new tutorial on automatic real-time noise reduction.
