Hello everyone,
I'm a noob at sound processing, and I would be very grateful for any advice you can give me on how I'm getting on. I have recorded some audio for my YouTube channel on optical design. It's a yawnfest if you're not into it, but my goal is to have a really clear, professional voice track for spoken voice. This sample file:
https://soundcloud.com/user-6836741...683674132-115654328/sets/tascam-model12-tests
is the audio as it comes off the Tascam. I have my microphone going into channel 1, Gain at about 1 o'clock and compression at about 2 o'clock. Everything else is flat. I record on the Tascam, and just transfer the file to PC over USB when finished. I then put this track through Audacity and process it to give
https://soundcloud.com/user-6836741...683674132-115654328/sets/tascam-model12-tests
Within Audacity, I use compression, limiting, a bit of bass boost EQ, a bit of top boost EQ and a bit of de-essing with a clip around the 6 kHz region. I also do noise reduction and normalization.
I'm looking for feedback on how well I've done this, and any steps you think I should take to get a better final result. Thanks in advance!
