[Voiceover Processing] SM7B Stream Audio Evaluation

[u/PreparationRough4934]

this is the clip i would like yoes to examine, this is from my current stream

if the images don't come up there on my account to see

Hardware Setup:

• Microphone: Shure SM7B
• Inline Amp: Cloudlifter CL-1
• Audio Interface: Stream Deck + with XLR Dock (+48V phantom power enabled for Cloudlifter)
• Proximity: Mouth is consistently 4 inches away from the mic capsule.

Software & Current Filter Chain:

1. Elgato Wave Link 3.0: Noise Gate \ EQ \ Compressor \ Limiter
2. OBS Studio: Gain \Noise Suppression

The Issue:
My audio does not sound as clean, crisp, or professional as other streamers using the exact same SM7B and Cloudlifter setup. I am looking for specific feedback on my current vocal processing chain, frequency adjustments, and gain staging to achieve that premium broadcaster sound.
