- Video: Settings → Video → Backgrounds and effects → Appearance: Make sure the "Framing" setting is turned off. It is also advisable to turn off all blur effects and filters, so I can see your guitar well.
- Microphone: Settings → Audio → Microphone: The best option depends on your available devices. You can test different microphones with making a test recording. Using the built-in computer microphone usually works well.
- Sound: Settings → Sound: If you see a setting that says "noise cancellation", "studio sound" or "push to talk", make sure all of these settings are off. If they are on, your guitar sound will be mistaken for background noise and gets filtered out. Some of these settings might not be available for all users.
- Test recording: Under your camera feed, there are three buttons: microphone, speaker and camera. The buttons are named according to your devices. Choose kamera → Make a test recording. Make sure that your instrument and voice sounds good on the test recording. You can also test what available microphone gives the best results.
