Automatic gain can be useful in some situations but what it basically does is monitor the input level and if it is low, it increases the gain (amplification) essentially listening for further away sounds. I myself am still not so good though but I hope i'll get better :D Glad I was able to help. XxxIndyxxx: I actually think this solved it!! Thank you so much! Now my youtube videos have improved on a technical level. I myself am still not so good though but I hope i'll get better :D I actually think this solved it!! Thank you so much! Now my youtube videos have improved on a technical level. The quality improvement is worth it IMHO. I prefer to disable most "auto" features both with the audio and video side of things and set it all up manually once - especially if I'm in a fixed setting with fixed distance between the subject (me) and the recording device (camera or mic). It's the audio equivalent of auto-focus, but just like auto-focus - when you're at a fixed distance or range it can be more of a pain than a benefit.

It may take some experimentation to get it just right.Īutomatic gain control in certain circumstances can be a nice thing to have without having to muck about in settings when the source of the audio may be moving about.
