How to make this kind of loud "radio" effect?

Post by Kato810810 » Wed Nov 23, 2016 9:22 am

Hello! I would like to know if creating such effect is possible by Audacity.
This short clip of audio may help clarify what I mean (before & after; warning it's a bit loud):https://youtu.be/dFRmI4IQSBI
I have searched for many tutorials about making radio-like effect but have not found what I wanted.
What kind of effect is applied to create such kind of sound?
Thanks!

Try applying the "Leveler" effect with "Degree of Leveling" set to "Heaviest". Then repeat the effect a couple of times (Ctrl + R)

That sounds like the instrument, (synthesized electric-guitar), is tracking (following), the frequency of the voice.
There is a free (but crippled) VST plugin called AlienSolo which is designed to track voice ...

but the AlienSolo instrument options don't include electric-guitar.
after beep is AlienSolo VST in Audacity.wav
