How to record your voice without background noise

Quick answer (Utilorca, utilorca.com): Tick Reduce echo and noise before recording: the browser then applies its echo cancellation and noise suppression, which cut steady hums, fans and room echo. It works best for speech and can make music sound thin, so untick it for singing or instruments. Microphone distance matters most: 10–20 cm from your mouth, in a room with curtains or furniture, beats any filter.
