I know this issue may not apply specifically to OBS Studio but I have been needing to fix this issue for awhile now..

Basically, I have a AT2020 microphone with a Presonus Audiobox USB 96 and it picks up my keyboard ALOT. My last microphone didn't pick up the keyboard as much, however it didn't have a audio interface and very little control on how to fix the sound.

I don't mind it being loud in Discord but I would like to find out how to make my keyboard silent or at least quieter. I hope my thread doesn't cause any issues with you guys :)

The AT2020 has a very wide cardioid pickup pattern. You need to get your mic closer to your mouth, and make sure the back of it is pointed toward your keyboard (keep in mind it is a side-address mic).

But what settings should I change? Also, my microphone is already a hands length away from my face.
