Installation Guide

For USB Microphones: 1. Plug the USB cable into an available USB port on your computer. 2. Wait for Windows/MacOS to install drivers automatically. 3. Right-click the volume icon > Sounds > Recording tab. 4. Select your microphone and click "Set Default". 5. Click Properties > Levels and adjust microphone volume (start at 70-80%). For XLR Microphones: 1. Connect the XLR cable from the microphone to your audio interface. 2. Connect the audio interface to your computer via USB. 3. Provide phantom power (+48V) if using a condenser microphone. 4. Set the interface as your default recording device in Windows/MacOS. Positioning: 1. Place microphone 6-12 inches from your mouth for optimal quality. 2. Use a boom arm or desk stand for stable positioning. 3. Angle the microphone slightly off-axis to reduce plosives (p and b sounds). 4. Use a pop filter to further reduce plosives and improve vocal clarity. Software Configuration: 1. Download manufacturer software (Blue Sherpa, Elgato Wave Link, etc.). 2. Adjust gain levels - speak normally and aim for -12 to -6 dB peak levels. 3. Enable noise suppression and noise gate if available. 4. Configure EQ settings for your voice (boost presence around 5kHz). For Streaming/Recording: 1. In OBS: Add Audio Input Capture source and select your microphone. 2. Add filters: Noise Suppression, Noise Gate, Compressor, EQ. 3. In Discord: Settings > Voice & Video > Select your microphone > Test the volume. 4. Set input sensitivity or enable Push-to-Talk. Tips: - Always test before streaming or recording - Use acoustic treatment or a quiet room for best results - Monitor your audio with headphones to catch issues immediately
