Audacity Forum

What is the recommended method - in addition to manually adjusting the voice levels - for creating a nice, even sound among all voices? I know leveler is available with a little digging, but I'm interested in other ideas and I want to avoid any distortion... LevelSpeech2.ny , (old school "leve...

Coincidentally the patent expires today What a coincidence :) On second reading it may have expired earlier than today :oops: ... Patent US4112254A 1977-10-17 Application filed by DBX Inc . . 1997-10-17 Anticipated expiration 1999-10-04 Assigned to FLEET NATIONAL BANK 2020-01-30 Application status ...

dbx is a proprietary noise reduction system, and while some details are available, not enough details are available in the public domain to be able to reproduce the effect exactly (and an exact copy of the dbx decoder would probably infringe their patents).

Audacity forum guru "Koz" has written a little routine that will set the "RMS" (basically the average volume) of your track to the correct level for ACX requirements.

The more recent RMS normalize plugin does the same thing.

... using AI tools for advanced editing, such as removing echos and voices without altering sound profile of a music?

If you want free AI to remove voices see spleeter, (it's far from perfect though).

I still feel like there is a discernable hum sound after doing the noise removal, etc. I'm wondering if anyone can give other advice on how, or if I should remove it. This is clean, unprocessed work.
