Does anyone know of any noise gate software programs? I'm starting to get into Let's Plays and I'm picking up quite a bit of background noise, even after trying to minimize it. My room is not ideal, but it's what I have for the time being. I'm using an MXL 990 and so far my only solution is to record gameplay footage first, and then record audio over that, then filter out noise that way, but I would like to occasionally record both the footage and commentary at the same time.

I haven't tried it, but this looks like something you could use.

Not sure what kind of DAW you use but look into the Waves Plugins on sale. They have a few really good noise suppressors.
