HELLO! We've had misogyny in the comments, which sadly Gem saw, and maybe some of you did, and thought this flaming queer was okay with that! No!!! I was just traveling, and should have paused comments! I'm going to put my response here for after the comment is gone. The misogynist said "the female" said "men hate change, when Gem very clearly said "man" as in *Etho* hates change. This person has called this out to talk about a woman the way we talk about animals while crying out over fabricated misandry. My response: "I don't know if you realize that saying "the female" is a huge sign that are (almost certainly) a misogynist. (You probably know what you are.) People who don't hate women call them "women". We say "the female" for animals, "female" is only an adjective for humans. Gem is *a person* not *the female* and I won't have you talking about her, or any woman, like that. If you wanted to question "men hate change"? Well, if you listen, at 4:55, she sure doesn't say that, she says "man hates". She talks about Etho like that. If you have a hearing issue, the (messy) auto captions say "man hates", not "men hate" - and if you just didn't bother to double check before making this comment on a channel with chill in the name? Well you're just looking to go spread some misogyny. If Gem had, for some reason, said that? That's something that can be discussed (not here). But you come in saying "the female is being mean about men", I know what you are, and this enby will ban you!"

according to one of the comment, he apparently used for 10 years a software called VirtualDub, which is apparently powerful video processing software (dunno if he used the video processing side), but he used it for its rudimentary support of a video editing side... made by one dude because of anime. This thing has apparently over 13000 versions of it. and this dude still owns version 650. and build number 1482 was the first one that was apparently uploaded to internet and apparently it wasn't until build 6904 that people started to become interested on it.

As someone that still insists on separately recording my mic in Audacity and having OBS record _only_ the game (sometimes I have to post-process my voice track, plus it makes it easier to slide around voice clips without having to manually un-glue them from the game track first), I at least know _how_ to multi-track audio in OBS. The only other thing I can think of is, maybe Etho records to .mkv (which the OBS manual _does_ recommend as a precaution against file corruption) but his editing software can only ingest .mp4 (had that issue before I moved to davinci), so he has to do a transcode step, and transcoding intrinsically merges all audio tracks into one...?

Does no one remember Ethos old logitech communications headset that he recorded ALL of his videos with? He kept it and kept buying new ones because he couldnt find a replacement that sounded the same FOREVER. The tissue box mic stand is a huge step for him because he actually has a mic now. it just takes a while for him to make big changes because that requires focusing on something that isnt the massive amounts of work he puts in each video. haha

he's such a vibe

Etho just got OBS. He was on Fraps Free Edition up until last week and just edits out the watermark. 😂 dudes been cruising for 15 years

He can do stem separation and lower elements that way

etho's house must be like a museum

The reactions to hearing that Etho records and edits Minecraft on 16GB sounded equal parts pity, sadness, and confusion.

I love that man

God I love Etho

That explains why with Decked Out I often felt he was hard to hear

I love this season so much. Learning so much about how abnormal etho is 😂

After learning about how he plays minecraft it just makes so much more sense seeing his old videos and him misclicking blocks or inventories or fighting mobs and him being so uncoordinated.
