Audacity Forum

Since the plug is behind the refrigerator, yes I waited for the cycle to end.

As close to silent as it gets!

And what kind of mic is that?

Yes please. I'll take that software.

ok Koz.

So if we could just keep this simple, after I've done all I can do to physically adjust the environment:

which AUDACITY EFFECT or other tool are you suggesting I use to eliminate any remaining noise and/or rumble?

And then for the saliva clicks?

Ok. After you talked about "hot" mic's, I did some searching it seems dynamic mics all push a little lower volume. So I will not send back the mic. I WILL do what I can to reduce the noise. I'd love you tell me about the de-essing and de-clicking and whether I should deal with noise reduction at all...

And are you disapproving of my doing Noise Reduction Profile and then Noise Reduction for the mouth sounds?

You don't like "Amplification" either?

What about "normalize"?

I'll send you one more recording with the mic stand on the carpet after the construction ends outside.

So you're saying the Samson may just be a "hotter" mic too, like the Snowball, producing louder recordings?

p.s. Mic is on a floor stand with a heavy round base on a wood floor.
I can move it to the rug and see if that improves noise.
