That's not super complicated.

I have carla running at all times and put all of my system audio through various loopback devices (browser, voice conferencing, and music/system) and then apply varying degrees of compression to them (no surprise sounds, hard limiting to hear quiet people, and bypass -- respectively).

Of course everything goes through an extra limiter at the end to avoid clipping.

I also send the voice conferencing input and output through RNNoise, so I can avoid emitting terrible sounds and avoid hearing them as well.

People also seem to like me better when I cut my mids a little bit, but additional research is required.

The reason for this is that I can change browsers (or games or voice apps) and they all think I'm just using a normal mic and headset, but it's actually like 10 LSP plugins and various routing.

Still doesn't feel that complicated when you do a little bit at a time.

Yes, that does seem super complicated compared to the plug and play setup 99.9% of people are using.

So you got velcro shoes too I take it?

i love your spirit and it's interesting to read how you handle your sound, but it's almost comical to see someone describe using 10 freaking plugins to handle sound as 'not super complicated' :D

Instead of digitally recreating your voice so people like you more, have you considered getting some psychotherapy? Maybe? :/
