Make better podcast and livestream sound — WTAUTOMIXER & DaVinci Resolve Fairlight
Do you find that your podcasts or livestreams, which you record with 2 or more people, sound noisy and…just not that great? The reason they sound that way is that recording with two or more microphones in the same space often results in microphone bleed and more pickup of room noise. There are a few different ways to solve this problem and get cleaner sound, but the quickest way is to use an auto mixer. In this video, we cover a VST, AU, AAX plugin automixer you can use in your DAW audio app or livestream encoder app to make much cleaner, focused sound. WTAUTOMIXER is the plugin that combines an automatic mixer, leveler, and noise gate into a single, easy-to-use plugin. Let’s take a closer look at WTAUTOMIXER in DaVinci Resolve Fairlight.
