/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

cabuvr's mic audio is so bad that I'm going to start doing guides to hopefully fix all of you

Most of you have pretty awful mic audio, so I made a quick guide that will hopefully help you EQ better. For example, some of you have the low end cranked for some reason, as in the top picture. Don't do this, it makes your audio lifeless. Instead, follow the details in the middle, and note that these are estimates- it will vary for each mic. Looking at the bottom image you can see an example of this in practice:

#1 - cut all frequencies below 50hz. You don't need them and nothing is lost. However, make sure the fullness around 120 hz is still emphasized when you make this cut.

#2 - For vocals, boominess == bad. Cut it. I had to cut it pretty dramatically on my mic, as you can see.

#3 - Presence falls around 4k on my mic. That small of a boost really makes things more lively

If your 's' sounds are really rough/noticeable, you can cut the sibilance frequencies.
