I'd be investigating Effect > Limiter. You can get limiter to gracefully wack off all the sticking-up parts in a narration without affecting anything else noticeably and without being able to hear it. And without needing to crank through the performance word by word by hand. You seem to have sailed...

Audacity is a post-production audio editor and doesn't do anything in real time. Record your show now and do noise reduction next week.

Does your File > Export Audio panel look like this (although probably in French)? Screen Shot 2016-12-09 at 19.55.50.png Did you install the lame software? Audacity will not export an MP3 sound file without adding the lame custom software. Scroll down to LAME MP3 Encoder. http://www.audacityteam.org...

Do you have backups ...

Missed one. Sometimes Windows will assume you want your living room to sound like a cathedral. I personally ran into that one. That's another setting.

Audacity doesn't apply any effect, filter or process during recording. These are all Windows problems.
