Re: What are your top tips and best practices for reducing background noise?
As someone with a dog that loves attention when he knows I am recording, I have a few steps.
A good microphone will help, don't have it on the desk. Close to your face to remove the need for boosting the volume in the post
I use the adobe suite, they have some great tools to remove background rumble and noise.
Multiple takes really help, when you feel a take is ruined do another take, and splice together them in post, having options is great! If you have a decent PC there is a NVIDIA Broadcast which does wonders for me in live learns

Hey there, instructors!
Let's talk about a common challenge we all face: background noise in our course audio. It's often the unwelcome guest that can distract learners and diminish the quality of our content. While we can't always control external noise, we do have power over our recording environments.
So, I'm reaching out to all of you for some shared wisdom! What are your top tips and best practices for reducing background noise in your videos?
Whether it's through equipment choices, setup tweaks, or innovative solutions, I'm eager to learn from your experiences.
Drop your insights in the comments below! Let's collaborate and help each other create clearer, more professional audio for our courses.
Re: What was the most recent upgrade you made to your AV setup?
Not trying to record everything in the absolute highest possible quality possible. Most people can't see the difference between 720p60 and 4K, not even with phone and computer screens capable of it. I have found in all my years teaching that if you can take something hard that someone wants to learn and explain it in a way that makes it really easy for them to understand so that they are really getting it and are getting motivated and fired up to keep going, you can be sitting in front of them with ketchup on your shirt, your hair messed up, and smelling bad, and they'll go around telling everyone you're weird, but the best teacher they've ever had.
I think social media has led us to believe we have to be a movie star to say something valuable, and it just isn't true.
Stopping worrying about extreme levels of quality was the best tweak I ever made.
