AI Tool Profile
NVIDIA Broadcast
Windows app that cleans up microphone and camera feeds in real time on NVIDIA RTX graphics cards, covering noise and echo removal, virtual backgrounds and eye contact. The page lists no price.
Description of NVIDIA Broadcast
NVIDIA Broadcast is a desktop application from NVIDIA that applies AI effects to a microphone, a speaker output or a camera before the signal reaches another program. It runs locally on the graphics card and appears to the operating system as a virtual device, so a chat, streaming or recording program only needs to select the Broadcast microphone or camera as its input.
On the audio side the app offers noise removal, room echo removal and a Studio Voice setting that NVIDIA describes as an upgrade to microphone quality. On the video side it offers background removal, replacement and blur, a virtual key light that relights the face, eye contact correction, noise reduction for low-light video, and Auto Frame, which tracks and crops the picture to keep the speaker centered.
The requirements are specific. NVIDIA lists Windows 10 64-bit, a GeForce RTX 2060, Quadro RTX 3000, TITAN RTX or faster GPU, 8 GB of RAM and a recent NVIDIA driver, with an internet connection needed during installation so the AI models can be downloaded for the installed GPU. Studio Voice and the virtual key light need a GeForce RTX 3060 desktop GPU or higher. There is no macOS or Linux version, and the product page does not state a price, so confirm cost on NVIDIA's download page before relying on it.
Because processing happens in real time on the user's own GPU, the app suits live calls, streams and recordings where the audio cannot be cleaned afterwards. It does not edit existing audio files, so recordings that were already captured need a different tool.
Features of NVIDIA Broadcast
- Removes background noise and room echo from a microphone or speaker in real time, using the local NVIDIA RTX GPU.
- Adds camera effects: background removal or blur, a virtual key light, eye contact correction, low-light noise reduction and Auto Frame.
- Appears as a virtual microphone and camera, so most calling, streaming and recording programs can use it by selecting the device.
Frequently asked questions

Can it clean up an audio file I already recorded?
