I have been recording the volunteer audiobooks with Audacity and I am using 2.2.1. I also follow the audiobook mastering process which works quite well, thank you.
Recently a friend asked if I could record a few spots for him to run on the radio. However, the last time I did one it was on an Ampex reel to reel. I am wondering if I can do it with Audacity and how different need the process be from the audiobook mastering. When I would record freelance stuff at local studios in the 70’s they used to compress the heck out of the audio to make it jump out of the speakers, can I do that myself in Audacity? Any tips and tricks?
