The area on the right is given over to a tool for testing these effects before you commit to them. Under the Microphone tab you’ll find a drop down on the left to select your input source and a space below for adding effects.

We’ll focus mainly on the microphone section, but the other two are just as useful and it all combines into one hub for tweaking your stream, be it video, audio or both. Once you’re in Broadcast you’ll see three main tabs: Microphone, Speaker and Camera. Those looking for the full audio-visual featureset will still need to download the standalone app. The Logitech partnership, to date, only works with some products and only with some of the features on offer in NVIDIA Broadcast. For example, if you have something like a Blue Yeti and an older webcam you’re going to get more out of this tool than someone with a Shure SM7B and a Sony A7.īroadcast specifically “uses Tensor Cores on NVIDIA RTX GPUs to accelerate AI calculations so you can game, livestream and run AI networks at the same time.” It’s compatible with any RTX GPU - “GeForce RTX 2060, Quadro RTX 3000, or higher” - according to a company spokesperson.

While Broadcast offers some helpful tools for all streamers, the real benefit is for those with more entry-level gear. Right up the top, I should set some expectations. Both offer great audio enhancement features, but we’ll focus on Broadcast here as that has effectively (though not entirely) replaced RTX Voice.

Then, it quietly released Broadcast - a more comprehensive tool aimed squarely at streamers and content creators. For example, you might remember RTX Voice, which as the name implies, is a tool for upping your microphone game. What if I told you that a graphics card could be the quickest way to improve your livestream or podcast audio? It sounds counterintuitive, but think about it: A GPU often has an extreme amount of processing power sitting idle, so why not use that redundant hardware for other things?įortunately, NVIDIA is way ahead of us, and has already harnessed the potential of its own GPUs to do things beyond, well, graphics.
