Re: ACX check is happy, can somebody listen?

I just got a chance to listen to the "fixed" version with no mosquitoes, and it sounds GREAT to me. Thanks for all your hard work.

Never mind, important lesson learned, and it's only a page. I'll just record it again.

But does that mean it's over-processed?

ACX check is happy, can somebody listen?

Hello, I've been going through the great advice on this board, and recorded a page or so of my book based on all the hints and tips I've read here. I got noise in my studio down to high -50s (between -57 and -59), which I figure should be okay. Then I applied target RMS + limiter + noise reduction. ...
