Great audio is essential for professional-quality videos.

Audio sources

System Audio

Captures sounds from your computer.

• App sounds, music, notifications
• Perfect for software demos
• Shows viewers exactly what you hear

Both

Combine microphone and system audio for complete recordings.

Configuring audio

Input level

Watch the level meter while speaking:

• Green zone — Good levels
• Yellow zone — Getting loud
• Red zone — Clipping (distorted audio)

Aim to speak in the green-to-yellow range.

Noise suppression

AI-powered background noise reduction:

Best practices

Environment

• Record in a quiet space
• Close windows and doors
• Turn off fans and AC if possible
• Soft surfaces (carpet, curtains) reduce echo

Microphone technique

• Keep consistent distance from mic
• Speak clearly and at normal volume
• Avoid breathing directly into the mic
• Use a pop filter for plosives (p, b sounds)

Before recording

• Do a quick test recording
• Listen back with headphones
• Adjust levels if needed
