For recording Shorts, TikToks and voiceovers

Both clean your mic while you record, so noise never reaches the file. Broadcast's File Processor can also clean files you already recorded, which helps if a voiceover has fan or room noise.

Krisp is built around calls. It fits creators who record podcast interviews over Zoom or Meet and want transcripts and notes after.

How to choose

  1. Check your graphics card. No NVIDIA RTX card means Broadcast will not run.
  2. If you have one, install Broadcast first. It is free.
  3. If you record calls with guests, try Krisp's 7-day trial.
  4. Pay yearly for Krisp to get the $8 rate instead of $16.
