What is NVIDIA Broadcast?

NVIDIA Broadcast is an AI app for Windows PCs with an NVIDIA RTX graphics card. It sits between your microphone, speakers and webcam and the apps you use, such as Discord, Zoom or OBS, and cleans up the audio and video in real time on your GPU.

On the audio side it removes keyboard clicks, fan hum, static and room echo, and Studio Voice tries to make an ordinary microphone sound closer to a studio recording. For video it can blur or replace your background without a green screen, relight your face, keep you framed as you move and adjust your eyes to look at the camera. A File Processor applies the same effects to recordings you have already made.
