This guide will show you how to use free noise cancellation tools for Google Meet and Zoom, ensuring your meetings are clear and professional.
Method 1: Using NVIDIA Broadcast & RTX Voice
To use NVIDIA Broadcast, you need a compatible NVIDIA GPU. Only RTX cards are supported. For GTX cards use RTX Voice.
First, download NVIDIA Broadcast.
- For NVIDIA RTX GPUs or higher, download NVIDIA Broadcast and visit the setup guide here.
- For NVIDIA GeForce GTX GPUs, download RTX Voice.
After installation, Configure RTX Voice:
- Select the microphone and speaker you want to use.
- Turn on the background noise removal for the mic and/or the speakers.
We recommend turning on RTX Voice for your microphone, and turn it on for your speakers only if needed. While quality remains almost the same, it is possible to see a small difference in some cases, and the solution takes system resources that you can avoid using if you don’t need it.
Method 2: Using OBS Studio for Noise Cancellation
You will need two pieces of software: OBS Studio and VB Virtual Cable.
Step 1: Configuring OBS
- In OBS Studio, click on “Settings”.
- Go to the “Audio” tab.
- Under “Mic/Auxiliary Audio,” add your microphone.
- Click on the gear icon next to your microphone in the “Audio Mixer” section.
- Select “Filters”.
- Add a “Noise Suppression” filter.
- In the same “Filters” window, add a “Noise Gate” filter.
- Adjust the settings to suit your environment.
- Go to “Settings” > “Audio”.
- Under “Advanced Audio Properties,” enable “Monitoring and Output” for your microphone.
Step 2: Configuring VB-Audio
Setting up VB Virtual Cable
- Goto your System Sound settings
- Set your input recording device default to Cable Output.
