How to get Studio Quality with any microphone! (Audacity)

[LiquidChem]

dude NO! you dont select the whole thing, you just select a piece of the noise, as a profile, if you select the whole clip, then do noise removal, its removing everything! thats why it put your audio level all the down dude..

when you record, do 2 or 3 seconds of silence, recording nothing, then start talking.

then on your audio clip you recorded, select the silence part as the noise profile (the background noise by itself)

then when you do the noise removal, the program removes ONLY the noise

It quiets it down because you used the effect incorrectly. You are supposed to find and select a short clip in your recording that contains background noise and NO VOCALS, then go the the effect and select Get Noise Profile so the effect knows what to remove (what you selected aka background noise) and THEN you apply it.

@119obiwan I totally agree with you. That's why there are two steps in Noise Removal.

You should instead, get the noise profile for where the background noise is. Then select the whole clip and this time hit OK. That will remove the extra step.

Instead of increasing gain Use normalize

@jordskiiz make sure you have your audio clip highlighted (as shown in the tutorial) and also make sure it isn't playing. :)
