Etho records with ONE AUDIO TRACK and everyone (including me) is upset 

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!"

Oh Etho 😂 everything we learn about his setup is exciting

After the tissue box mic stand reveal I'm not even surprised. He’d say he still uses dialup internet but makes it work and I'd believe him lol

Etho's the definition of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" lol

etho has proven that you don’t need a million fancy things to be a youtuber. you just need a single mic, a tissue box, an unhinged desk setup, and a dream.

Bro. When I was helping pearl rescue her episode in the Life series and I couldn't get just an etho vocal from him I wanted to scream haha

So thats why whenever he says his cant upload because his audio is messed up its because of this

so THAT’S why etho always sounds better in other people’s videos

What is with all of the horrendous Etho lore? I love him. Why is he like this.

Etho is a creature using what hes scavenge from hikers in the Canadians wilderness

This is why he lost his audio so much in limited life I guess

sometime we will find out that Etho records by filming his screen on real film and cuts the videos with scissors and tape

Etho probably records on vhs for his own Minecraft home videos collection, he’s just that kinda guy

Feels like Gem understands the saying never meet your heroes, more then ever before

"it's not perfect? It's not EVEN GOOD"

This entire season is us including the hermits figuring and understanding ethos setup

bet you he doesn't have a fridge he has an ice box

I’m such an Ethogirl (grown man) and the lore of him just keeps getting better. We can’t forget how long he used Fraps for omg and how he’s kept the same setup for a while

I have a sneaking suspicion we're about to get an audio quality boost from Etho's videos here soon, cause he's gonna get bullied by EVERYONE to add just 1 more track for his voice alone

Etho isn’t even washed up, he never even washed in.

The video ending with the absolute gut-punch of Etho having 16tb hard drive space after he made the excuse that recording two tracks would take up too much space... INSANE

Honestly if he's been in the business for this long he probably knows what he's doing

Between this and his keyboard setup, I’m starting to suspect Etho may not be human.

I’ve watched Ergo for about 12 years now. I think we’ve had more Etho lore in the past month than we’ve ever had Especially in this stream

"no one would notice if i don’t say anything" that’s so etho of him to say

"it's not perfect? that's not even good!" gem's delivery had me screaminggggg 😂

Gotta respect Etho for keeping things familiar and old-school. Keep in mind he started YT when having a headset mic in itself was a cool factor and the guy refuses to upgrade unless there's no other option

Is etho still doing the editing method he explained where he records a clip and instantly puts it in his editing software and then does the next etc etc?

Etho and Gem are really becoming my favourite pairing recently

2:50 I cant believe Etho survived that comment lol. The one time Gem DIDN'T just whip her sword out on instinct

The inventor of the Etho hopper clock! He never messes with perfection.

God, my streamer is just absolutely unhinged and I cannot handle it. ETHO PLEASE

I’m now fully convinced that Etho lives in 2001

every new bit of information makes my headache just that tiny bit worse. at least he has a good hard drive, other than that his setup is just held together with tape and chewed gum

Etho see thing work, Etho happy New thing drop, but old thing still work, Etho keeps old thing. Etho happy.

Etho finally updated yo OBS? I though he was still on fraps of smth like that

im starting to build up an image of ehto streaming from a shed that looks like something out of the evil dead movies

Etho is living like he just started RU-vid and I’m all for it. It’s part of what makes him great.

[Edits] NO MISOGYNY WHAT THE HELL. Please WATCH the whole video before declaring what works best for Etho, or at least jump to 5:13 where he says 2 channels would be nice. 02:20 ONE AUDIO CHANNEL 02:34 Being mean to Gem 03:58 JUST THE WHOLE TRACK 04:20 OBS, and he still lives like this 05:13 Etho admits 2 track would be nice, Scar proposes help

"Do you still use Fraps?" At this point I wouldn't have been surprised to hear that man still uses the free version of Fraps like its still 2010

"Do you still use FRAPS" oh my god that's a fucking deep cut right there, absolutely brutal 😂😂😂

Etho only used virtual dub as a video editor for the first decade or so of his channel, so he could only clip recordings and arrange those clips. Nothing at all beyond that.

After learning more about Etho....its like finding out God is a caveman....which makes Etho even more impressive....

I just love that Ethos recordings have run on Charisma and Duct tape alone over years.

Etho posts by emitting radiowaves through an old radio from the 1950s into yt

I love Etho so much! His weird quirkiness makes him even cooler, in my honest opinion.

the more we find out about Etho's set up , the more strange and bizarre it becomes

Etho revealing his dinosaur gaming setup throughout the season has been an incredible experience

Gem's "You are so mean" at 2:50 was so cute. Beyond that, somebody PLEASE help my man Etho. He's living on 2015 hardware with a 2005 recording/editing setup.

Are we really surprised after the years of etho using a screenshot from the video as the thumbnail 😂

I can relate with etho. I wouldn't want to bother changing stuff.

Why? I recorded Minecraft 10 years ago, and I recorded with Fraps, but even then I used Audacity to have 2 separate audio tracks.

Ngl im loving these types of video. Meeting type/podcast just chatting.

2:51 bro etho 😭

I really love how theyre all just chillin and chatting in minecraft, like at complete different ends of the world but its as if theyre in the same room. Video games bring people together in the best way

I’ve been loving Etho and Gem banter this season

Etho is a great example of being able to use the bare minimum, not needing all the fancy stuff, and still being successful.

2:50 Etho either hates or loves the Gem. Peak siblings behavior

This shows people that you don't need the best of the best to make quality content.

Thanks for the clips

NGL learning about Etho's setup (or lack thereof) has made me more confident about my setup for when I get around to producing videos lmaoooooo

This was such a fun stream lol. I was awake till 3 am watching it, didn't want to miss out the Etho LORE. Also really appreciate you for moderating the comments! So many other clips channels don't do it at all.

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...?

We need to preserve this man

Realizing that Etho is successful in spite of his tissue box stand and single track recording is inspiring. Especially because he's also very technical and understands how to set things up correctly. He's just lazy and/or doesn't like change. It's charming.

Gem: "such a boomer. omg...." that was the delivery from the heart

Etho uses a flip phone 100% confirmed...😂

Man, that new horn Gems got it really puttin in the mileage. Lol

etho is icnoic his computer could be on fire and he'd have a mini fire extinguisher and say its fine

At least etho doesn't have to mess with facecams.

Such a technical guy usign such low tech is amazing! xd

I love this lmao, he used fraps for so long lol

etho is a modern philosopher

Every new fact we learn about Etho’s setup just raises further questions

Despite not streaming Etho is constantly on tango and scar's streams lol

Oh that’s a really cool setup! I didn’t know you could record onto multiple channels like that!

he's such a vibe

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

I didn't know you could record more than 1 separate sound channel in OBS 😭 I gotta figure that out

That's how I record my videos too. I'm too lazy to record my voice separately.

Etho lives in a log cabin and has a moose as a neighbour. Give the man a break :p

God I love Etho

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

After the reveal of his setup... I'm not even surprised at this point lmaoooo

Ahora estoy intento recordar y creo que me gusta el sonido de los videos de etho ❤❤❤❤❤

I love him

etho's house must be like a museum

I do it too and I see no problem

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

That's our favourite Legendary Minecraft RU-vidr, folks!

He can do stem separation and lower elements that way

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.

Scar is spot on this man is a man is a man of mysteries

Etho keeps dropping lore omg

Etho's a an OG OG YTber lmao

Etho is a true OG, hasn't changed since day 1

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

i love this guy lmaoo

my screen with six audio tracks...

Etho is a wholesome guy, be more like Etho
