Microphone Issue

[MikeJ777]

Pardon if this is in the wrong section ^^;

NOTE: I use DXtory. It's the only video recording software I am comfortable with.

I'm starting my very first LP soon, and I decided to do a very short test video to see how everything sounded. I ran my game up to the title screen and just said random gibberish for a little bit, and reviewed my video. The problem is my voice only sounds like its coming from one speaker (the left). How do I rebalance it to where it sounds like I'm not muffled/talking in the far background?

I would suggest using audacity to record your commentary. It'll allow you a lot more freedom to adjust things after the fact and if all else fails, you could probably adjust the audio file to make the sound come out of both speakers

also, its free. So thats good too.

Audacity seems a bit complicated for me xD

Are there any simpler options?

I thought that too xD but its literally just a matter of saying 3-2-1 record when you're ready to sync up the commentary with the gameplay. Its a pretty simple program once you get the hang of it, which should be pretty fast

Put the mic on the right side of your face.
