• Microphone placement: For condenser microphones, use in a quiet environment and place away from noise sources (fans, air conditioner vents, computer).
• Close to the microphone: Being closer to the microphone improves the signal-to-noise ratio and reduces ambient noise.
• Do not use while charging: Avoid current sound interference.
• Filter noise on live streaming software: Use noise suppression and noise gate features in software like OBS Studio.
