Wave Link assistance

How could basic settings be this difficult to find?

It took me forever to setup my wavelink2 - migrating to 3 is tough.

I think i'll go back to Wavelink2 for now but i'd like some advice.

For gaming i run all my sound with "Loudness equalisation" turned on - When you're using Wavelink this windows feature is disabled, the closest i can get is a custom EQ profile.

Does anyone know how to enable Loudness equalisation?

2. There is always background noise. I sit near my wife, particularly with meetings and my microphone picks her voice up or background noises easily.
   Elgato's voice focus feature does nothing for other voices in the room, same for Elgato noise removal.

I have installed "Deegate" which works well enough...
basically I want to set a base threshold that volume needs to reach before it engages the microphone, so that only when i speak into it -it will kick in. Discord has this out of the box (YAY), but when going into a MS teams call or Zoom etc -this gets painful real quick.

Any tips?
Why these features aren't out of the box with Wavelink is beyond me.
