This is where I warn you that ACX Check can be fooled. It needs at least 3/4 second of clean room tone (background sound) to measure Noise. In general, a straight narrative reading doesn't have silences quite long enough to work. Give it a second (or longer) of dead quiet before you start presenting...

We still don't have a You > Announcer tool. If the goal is transforming your voice, we can only do the effects parts, not the announcing parts.

That's why Text To Speech is becoming so popular. Nobody needs to know how to read out loud.

If you have a mono voice track, duplicate it and using the left-hand drop-down menu > Make Stereo Track. Same menu > Split stereo track (not to mono) > Time Shift Tool > push the bottom tr...

It's worse than that. Audacity has a suite of zooming tools. You're only viewing a limited set. https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/zooming.html I only ever use three. Control-E (zoom into selection), Control-F (zoom out full) and Control-3 (zoom out a little bit. Taken by themselves, they make no s...

Karaoke-solution Don't fall in love with that, either. The karaoke-solution fails most of the time. The lead singer should be in the exact left-right middle of the stereo field. The performance has to be in perfect stereo with no compression artifacts (no MP3's). The instruments have to not be in t...
