lower the keyboard volume

[lior1111]

i just got the mic called AT2020 , and when i record videos and streaming with it you can clearly hear my keyboard , well not only clearly but also very loud! 

Will pop filter help that?

How is your mic positioned? A pop filter will change nothing at all.

I know some people just buy and use a cheap but quiet membrane keyboard for recording, you could also use o-rings on your keyboard.

Is your keyboard mechanical? I've heard of people putting O rings on theirs as dampeners, but I've never tried it because browns aren't that loud anyway.

I guess you do use MX Blue or similar. O-rings might help a bit, but the clickiness is and will always be there. If you get a very focussed mic and aim it directly at your face, that might help (or a mic with a focused recording pattern that does not pic up alot of background noise in general). Though replacing your keyboard will probably be cheaper and easier than replacing your mic

Reposition where your mic is and try using it in conjunction with an isolation filter (although that may not drown it out enough). I have one on my at2020 and I needed to move it quite a bit away from the keyboard.
