Re: ACX

I'd start with two phones. Video and cover audio on one and the other in your pocket for hero audio. That one will probably need an actual microphone and the on-board Voice Recorder software.

Re: ACX

I should look into audiobooks. Perhaps instructional podcasts. Videotape your classes. Get a lavalier microphone and make sure you get perfect, clear voice recordings. You and TED and Royal Institute. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNVQfWC_evg Pick a nice logo and opening animation. You'll need to...

Re: Lost aup file

You can do some of this by inspection of the blue waves. The two ends of successive AU files should be similar. This is likely to be a match. Match.png whereas this isn't. NoMatch.png If you didn't do anything to the files, they will still have the computer time and dates attached. That will get you...

This is a good target for unprocessed voice recording.

It's possible you can't get there. If not, we need to address that first before you throw lists of processes at it.

So I've done two different samples: one of which went through a lot of noise reduction and normalizing, and the other of which went through even more noise reduction and normalizing. Now post a sample that didn't go through anything. https://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/TestClip/Record_A_Clip.html R...

Re: I'd like to know if my current setup is correct for podcasting

There's some production considerations. I know the goal is to completely isolate two people so to apply filters and corrections as needed, but even if you have directional microphones, which you do, and you put each person in the other person's "shadow", which you should, each microphone i...

Re: My Yeti mic comes with a USB - not an audio jack. Is this why Audacity won't recognize my mic? It doesn't show up.

Most Yeti microphones come with USB. That's their "thing." Usually USB is a pretty good idea. Analog "Mic-In" on most computers is pretty poor with high distortion and noise level. The delicate, sensitive microphone electronics is in the same metal box with the heavy, noisy compu...
