Re: horrible audio in video

The main distortion is digital compression-artefacts , either the up-loader or YouTube has applied a low-quality low-bit-rate , ( low kbps ). IMO this is not correctable.

Re: How to match same actor's voice but different microphone

If the recordings were made in different locations , (e.g. different rooms) then IMO its impossible to make a seamless join. Making the sound spectrum of the two recordings similar with equalization is possible, but equalization won't change any differences in reverberation due to different locations.

Re: Accidentally recorded priceless interview in "mono" (ech

It does sound like you were simultaneously recording from two microphones with a delay between them , (either due to physical separation of the mics and/or a digital delay), producing an echo. IMO this echo is not fixable : there’s nothing to differentiate voice from echo to allow them to be separat...
