    The thing I appreciate the most about this video is that not only do you give us the recommended settings, but you also explain what each filter/settings is for and how it can be adjusted in case we need to configure our settings for a setup that is slightly different from yours.
    Thank you for a very comprehensive OBS guide.

    Thank you so much for making this! I have been struggling nonstop for three years trying to get my microphone to sound decent, but after seeing this tutorial, that problem has been solved. I love how simple, yet effective the methods are, how you explain what all of the different filters do, and most importantly, what volume we should be aiming for. Once again, this video was a lifesaver and I am so glad to have found it.

    This is the second of your videos I have watched. I had already watched a lot of OBS videos, and most of the people lost me, either by being disorganized , or by using unnecessary computer jargon. I not only learned a lot from your videos, but feel that I learned ENOUGH to actually do what you are saying. I especially appreciate that you don't leave out the Apply and Okay steps. I need to hear these things.

    Finally something worth watching. Other vids with more "clout" say don't touch OBS filters, they don't even show the interface. They mainly point to VST Reaper plugins. With just your instructions here I sound better than those other guys (plus I added the EQ from Reaper plugins; still not sounding best I can, but I guess I just don't understand EQs well enough) Blue Yeti mic.
