Thanks!

Hey, Thanks.

So how can you tell in audacity which frequencies are being affected and therefore treat those and correct with de-esser?

OK, here is my sample!

Hello! I have terrible sibilance!. I think I talk naturally like this so not sure a mic upgrade would even help. Currently using the at2020. Any suggestions? Messed around with eq but doesn't seem to do any favours, same with the de-esser. Apparently my sibilances are in the 12kh area, I had a frien...

Cheers!

Thanks,

Hey, The Noise_F file is a sample of my noise floor (I left the room to do this). The Test file is my vocal file. I use the public Libray's studio booth to record as it's free and my basement suite is way too noisey. The only problem is they have the pc set up on the desk so I am assuming most of th...
