hi what is the best audio aspect to use to take pops and clicks from vinal.
and remove tape his, without making it sound to worbley.
from stew
also i am looking for an audio limiter or a compresser to go inline with my
mic to my mixer.
so i would have a lead from the mic going to the limiter and than a lead
going to the xlr socket on the mixer.

Hey David.
Sorry, EQ is just short for "equalisation", which I should have used. It
just means applying an equalizer to the tracks to bring out the desired
frequencies. You may not need it, depending on how yours sounds after you
record.
What kind of background noise is it? It's easy to remove hums and steady
machine-like sounds. You should record a section of nothing but the noise,
then apply a noise reduction thing to reduce that particular noise/set of
frequencies. I record on my desktop and the fans are fairly noisy -- the
noise reduction filter drops that out pretty nicely.
For podcasting, consider another microphone -- a unidirectional one that
will just pick up your voice/what's directly in front of it. That said I
don't use one of those currently, but one of those snowball mics -- it does
pick up sound from all around it, but it's quiet around here as it's just me
in this place, so it works ok. Still, a more studio-oriented mic would be
ideal.

Hello,
Thanks for your reply. What I did with my first go was to make the podcast
then use goldwave's maximize volume option to get the volume to zero db
without clipping.
I have been reading, and listening to tutorials and presentations since my
first podcast and have learned about vst plugins, that's where I wondered
about a compressor. I've also got some background noise that my phone
microphone picks up. It's from another room about ten feet maybe 15 feet
away I'm actually surprised the mic got it, if possible i'd like to filter
that out.
Can you explain EQ?
Thanks.
Dave.

Crazy volume differences are one of my pet peeves listening to
podcasts. I like to listen to them while doing stuff around the home,
with my desktop PC broadcasting to my bluetooth headphones. It works
great until someone inserts an audio clip from somewhere, or there's a
guest on, whose volume is so different from that of the main host --
either loud enough to burst my eardrums or so quiet I have to crank it
and then quickly turn down again when the clip is over.
Anyway, you say you're already using plugins and doing
post-processing. Is that not working out for you? What are you doing to
the audio exactly?
Noramlising audio volume?
For your speaking voice, a bit of compression might be nice, but I
think eq is maybe the most important thing to apply -- in my opinion
you want to bring out the higher frequencies of the human voice a bit,
to make things like sibilances clear and well-defined but not so sharp
that they're distorting (this shouldn't happen so much with a good
microphone, anyway).

Hello,
I'm dipping in to podcasting. I've made and submitted one, but think I
could do better. The podcast is a demo which is recorded on my s10+
using amazing
mp3 recorder, and demoing features of the phone so it's also talking.
One thing I've noticed is sometimes the audio isn't right, it's either
to loud or not loud enough, I've maximized volume. I am using
goldwave6 with some added-vst-plugins for post-processing. The files
are recorded as wav files then saved as 44.1Khz 64Kbps mp3 files.
I thought about giving a compressor a go to make my voice crisper and
the phone volume more even as well, but don't want to smash things to
soundly.
I'd appreciate any tips.
Thanks.
Dave.
