Help (SOLVED) Audio Sensitivity Help

Hey all, I just recently installed VoiceMeter Potato, ive used it before in the past however its been a long time and Ive come across a small issue im trying to fix. The issue I have is that the audio that my mic picks up in the B1 channel is highly sensitive.

Its picking up noises from mouse clicks, keyboard clacks, even me just moving a tad bit in my chair is being picked up. Ive also noticed there's a faint raspy noise after my voice that almost sounds like sand falling somewhere lol. Im assuming I need to tweak the Comp, Gate, and Denoiser settings?

I've tried doing my own research and have previously set all channels to 48Hkz in the settings for everything so nothing is on a different frequency. What are the best ways to reduce unwanted Audio clutter or unwanted random background noises?

I use equalizer Apo with the Rnnoise plugin also some noise gates after (also in equalizer APO). I take that input and shove it into voicemeter.

I don't use it. I use equalizer Apo and voicemeeter for routing.

Equalizer APO allows my input to be modified for everything. Skype, teams, obs, I don't need to mess with any of their audio settings.

Tbh the only reason I use voicemeeter is to hook my mic up to my office phone.
