Audacity Forum

It is not really possible to say how to fix something without first knowing what's wrong with it.

If you could post a link to a sample of your vocals you may get some helpful and relevant suggestions.

You can do something very similar using Nyquist, though it will be very much slower than using the Equalizer. (Also, it may require Audacity 1.3 rather than 1.2) I don't have any suitable material for testing to find the optimum settings, but the values used here are hopefully about right. (if (arra...

There are various ways to improve the mis-match voice level using Audacity, but they are all a bit of a pain and time consuming. It would be much better to fix the problem in the original recording, but I've never used "Pamela" so I've no idea about the correct set-up procedure. You would ...
