The up side is your speaking style seems to work page after page, so those corrections should work chapter after chapter. If you change the microphone or make other changes, we'll need to revisit the list of incantations and spells.

Re: getting home audiobook recording up to snuff
Sitting down? You really need to try harder to get rid of that whine in the background. It's exceptionally hard to suppress because it has "baby screaming on a jet" tones. No matter how hard you read that Airplane Marketplace magazine, and put "free peanuts" in your ears it seeps...

I'm making coffee. This tea thing isn't going to do it.

Re: getting home audiobook recording up to snuff
I think I'm getting dizzy. Dizzier. As far as I know, there is only one LF_rolloff, so you're safe there. You should remember there is also an instruction to change the "length" slider in Equalize when you use that filter. Those are the wrong instructions. That could account for a lot. Beh...

Re: getting home audiobook recording up to snuff
Is this going fast enough? They sound different and, when I load them back into Audacity, their waveforms are completely different. WAV files have exactly the same file sizes no matter what the content. This isn't like MP3 which slides all the values around depending on how much compression you use ...

Re: getting home audiobook recording up to snuff
While I'm having horrified thoughts... What's the possibility your posting service is changing the files a little? The "after" version didn't look pure as it should have.
That could be you leaving out a step, too.

Re: getting home audiobook recording up to snuff
If you still have the original unpatched version somewhere, please post it. I want to see where my patching process goes off the rails.

Re: getting home audiobook recording up to snuff
You must have skipped a step. The last Normalize should have guaranteed a WAV file peak value of -3.2. The difference between what you sent and what got to your server could be drag or highlight selection errors. I do that occasionally. I will post a correction and then I'm horrified that things pos...

Re: getting home audiobook recording up to snuff
It won't pass ACX, either. I revised the testing process using basic English comprehension goals (I know, right? What a concept.) I intentionally put noise first because nobody passes that.
