I’ve never recorded any video except for sharing with friends and family on my phone. Now I want to record videos for uploading and am just looking for a “for dummies” community for basic bg noise filtering. Additionally, I’m using a USB webcam with a built in mic but get reverb/echo. Disabling the laptop mic results in no sound, even though the detected USB mic is added, enabled, and all track boxes in settings are ticked. It would be nice to add a bg scene as well but none of the tutorials or videos I’ve found are effectively correcting the sound issue. I’ve had to untick the track boxes in the camera mic and use the laptop mic.

This is for a small business project, but I’d eventually like to record more political/community videos if I can work out basic issues and move on to more sophisticated settings and produce quality material. This is on a Windows 11 Home computer, and I typed all these details in case anyone wants to answer. Thanks either way.
