Hello everyone!
I need help to balance sounds in an audio file.
I recorded me and my friend speaking but his voice is much lower than mine.
I wanna balance the volume of our voices basically.
I could lower my voice (limit the maximum db, which I don't know how to do or if it's possible) and then make the audio louder.
I could make his voice louder somehow.
I don't know what to do, I tried normalize, equalizer, compressor, nothing really worked especially cause I don't really know how to work with it.
I'll answer any question, I'll even post pics of the waves or the actual audio file.
I just need some help, advice, guidance.
Am using Audacity 2.1 on Win8.1
Thanks.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/idq6fcm1thck6 ... o.mp3?dl=0 there's a sample of the audio
I already kinda figured it out, I'm putting the audio through the normalizer with default settings and then using the compressor sorta like http://i.imgur.com/r2DMWt4.png
I also asked about this on reddit and a guy helped me out really fast, but you can give me somes tips aswell!
