Windows 10: Noise suppression on Windows 11?

I am having some trouble with my microphone on my Windows 11. Whenever I record or go into a call, the microphone keeps picking up the whistling noises on my PC. I want to see if I can fix the sensitivity of my microphone so it doesn't pick up the noises that my PC makes. How would I be able to do this? I have tried muting other sounds on the control panel, lowering the mic volume and using Windows enhancement features but nothing seems to work. I'm not sure if it's the mic itself or if this a Windows issue. I uploaded a video of what my mic usually sounds like so it shows what my issue is.htt

Is there a way to disable noise suppression?

I am a music teacher that teaches virtually. My new laptop uses the Microphone Array (Intel Smart Sound Technology), and when I try to use it for lessons all background noise is suppressed. Is there a way to disable noise suppression?

Hi, I'm Elise, and I'd be happy to help with your issue.

Could you try these steps:

Open the control panel app

Go to Hardware & Sound

Then Sound

Then the Recordings tab

Right click your Microphone and select properties

Look for the enhancements tab and disable any noise suppression options in there.

Please let me know if you need any further assistance.

Kind Regards,

Elise

 

Better microphone noise suppression in Windows 10?

Having acquired a new and supposedly good microphone (ModMic), I noticed that I'm still hearing a lot of noise in the recording - about as bad as with my old cheap microphone. I now think the reason is the quality of the sound card (it's the on-board sound card on Asus Z170 PRO GAMING motherboard). For the record, I hear very similar results from both microphone ports (front and rear). My microphone boost setting is at zero and the gain is at 100%, but I also tried different settings with similar results.

I tried to use two noise suppression tools:

1. The "Noise suppression" checkbox in Microphone Properties -> VoizReal Exp tab. This helps, but some background noise remains and it seems the voice is clipped.
   
2. The "Noise suppression" filter in OBS Studio. This works much better. No noise remains, and the voice quality is comparatively good.
   

The question is is it possible to apply a filter like (2) system-wide and not just in OBS Studio.
