Audio issue

[lone cobalt]

I am getting corrupted audio on youtube but not on my video editor or on photos and I made sure to decrease the volume but it still wont do crap

We need examples. There is 0 info to go off of.
What is this "Corrupted" audio your talking about? Are you talking about audio peaking? Are you talking about an issue in your video editor?
What does it sound like? Etc.

How Much Better Is The Switch 2?

Ok where is this corrupted audio at. Sounds like the gain is way too high from what I listened to

[lone cobalt]

What is gain?

and how do I fix it?

[verbal wagon]

Its how much energy your microphone pics up. Too much gain you pick up breaths,noises from lips when talking. To little gain and youll sound far away or not be detectable at all.

[lone cobalt]

How do I fix it?

And edit it so that it actually sounds coherent?

[verbal wagon]

By adjusting your microphone.

[lone cobalt]

Kinda too late for it

I have to fix it in editing

[verbal wagon]

Never too late to re-record. If you are deadset on using this rough audio you can try to put on a noise gate but the default recording sounds like the recording mic is in your mouth at times.
You never explained what "corrupted audio" is

[lone cobalt]

I can’t really re-record it because my switch 1 is gone now

[lone cobalt]

Its probably what you meant with the too much gain

[lone cobalt]

What is a noise gate?

[verbal wagon]

Its a filter that cuts out noises at certain levels of audio you set. No way to tell if itll even help in this scenario. Do you listen to your audio recordings with headphones by any chance before editing?

[lone cobalt]

No

It sounded just fine in the editor

[verbal wagon]

well youtube didnt mess up the audio so this is from the default recording. I would highly consider setting aside time doing test recordings and learning what filters to use to avoid this issue in the future.

[lone cobalt]

It sounded just fine when I audio tested and in the editor though

[verbal wagon]

Do you listen through your pcs speakers or headphones?

Its going to sound vastly different with headphones vs just hearing it through a laptop speaker or low to mid range speakers.
