Your microphone options
Open your camera profile and tap the microphone icon in the top bar. The Microphone sheet shows the options available for your camera:
Built-in Audio Analog Stereo. The camera's onboard microphone. Good for most fields and rooms.
External [name]. An accessory microphone plugged into your camera. Shows up automatically when connected, with the model name. Best for noisy stadiums, large fields, or anywhere the built-in mic struggles.
No microphone. Audio is turned off. Your broadcasts and recordings play back silent.
Tap the option you want. The current selection is highlighted.
Three ways to control game audio
Sound can be turned off in three places. Each one affects the game differently, so pick the one that matches who you want to hear it.
1. No sound anywhere: turn off the microphone before the game.
In your camera profile, tap the microphone icon and choose No microphone. The live stream, the game video, and downloads are all silent. Sound can't be added back later.
2. Sound only during the game: turn Audio off when you sync.
When you tap Sync, the Audio settings screen has an Audio switch. Turning it off removes the sound from the uploaded video, so the game video in the app and downloads are silent. The live stream and instant playback during the game still had sound. This can't be undone once the sync starts.
3. Muted in the app, sound kept in downloads: sync with Audio on, then turn it off on the game.
Leave Audio on when you sync. Once the game is ready, open it, tap the options icon next to the game title, and turn Audio off. The game and its clips play muted in the app, but downloads keep the full sound. You can turn it back on any time.
Not sure? Choose option 3. It's the only one you can change your mind on later. Keep in mind that anyone who downloads the game will hear the sound.
When changes take effect
Your microphone choice applies to the next broadcast or recording you start. A game that's already recording keeps the microphone it started with, and sound can't be added back to a finished recording, but you can still mute it in the app (see option 3 above).
Reading the microphone icon
The microphone icon in the top bar of your camera profile reflects your current setting at a glance.
Solid mic icon. A microphone is selected. Your next recording will have sound.
Mic icon with a slash. No microphone is selected. Your next recording will be silent.
Tap the icon any time to change it.
External microphones
External mics are detected automatically. Plug one in and it appears in the Microphone sheet alongside the built-in option. Unplug it and the option goes away. If you've selected an external mic and then disconnect it, your camera falls back to the built-in microphone for the next session.
What "No microphone" does
Selecting No microphone is a deliberate choice, not a fallback. The camera still produces a video file, the audio track is just silent. Pick this if you want to record without sound on purpose, for example for highlight clips you'll score later.
