Audacity Forum

I don't like how high pitched my voice sounds in recording

In My Opinion, you should not try to make your voice sound like everyone else. Particularly if you have good reading skills, a distinctive voice is marketable.

I also just remembered about an hour or two after posting that I can do noise reduction... ...on noises that never change. Noise reduction works a treat on hiss, hum, air conditioner, refrigerator or other constant noises. It's a lot less effective on traffic, conversations, music...or key clicks. ...

Games, right? I'm not sure how gamers do it, other than possibly a really tight headset and good noise reduction in a boom microphone.

Another common mistake is to rename one or the other. Can't do that. The project name is burned into ...

The stand-alone USB interfaces only have one control and the total gain is rarely more than 40dB. This does you no good when your microphone signal is in the -70dB range. I have a Behringer UM2 and it's "adequate" for regular microphones but I still have to do some processing to get voice ...
