I'm recording with a Rode NT1-A condenser microphone through a Zoom H6 recorder.

You can also apply the Auto Duck effect to silence the other track when the person in one track is speaking and vice-versa. Again assuming they don't interrupt or talk over each other. Many of these advanced tools require surgical inspection of the whole show with good headphones to make sure the t...

I see that ACX in their youtube videos say DO NOT USE DE-ESSERS! - amongst other things. They're also anti noise-reduction/removal.. Yes, they do. Their goal is natural, clear speech. My metaphor is someone telling you a story at the kitchen table over cups of hot tea. ACX is specifically trying to...

The only real place to set signal to noise is before the digitizer. After that, the noise floor is whatever the digital standard is that you picked. If you're in 16 bit, it's -96dB. So that takes you to the microphone and the microphone preamplifier. The MicPre. Microphone signal is insanely low and...

I have successfully configured Audacity and the ASIO driver on Windows

By that you mean you recompiled Audacity from the source code to support ASIO? As far as I know, that's the only way to make full ASIO work—someone will correct me.

Thanks for the picture of your set up. One of my setups. That's a kit. Dump it in the back of my truck and go. I can make a sound studio in about 40 minutes. http://kozco.com/pix/oneWallKit.jpg http://kozco.com/pix/partiallyConstructedWall.jpg You don't have to do this at home. One woman poster tur...
