Your course was super informative, Josh. I'm glad I bought it! My next audiobook's eq I designed from what I learned and it sounds phenomenal.
*I'd really like to see you eq some high quality recordings one day too.
Hey Geoff! So glad you enjoyed the course my friend! I’ll EQ some goodness soon. In due time 💪. I appreciate your comment🙏
Hurrayyy! Finding your channel opened my eye to the reasons why I have been awful in my audio over the past 3 years or more. I can now say that I'm on the right path to getting my audio right. Thank you
BOOM! Working on audiobook right now for ACX and found your video. Fixed my noise floor issue immediately. Thank you!
Works like a charm.
Thank You!!! Tremendous help to me, Josh.
You’re so welcome Monte!
Josh, you are the BEST!!! I'm a big admirer of your knowledge. Thank you so much and stay blessed. 😊
Thank you for this!
thank you so much for this!
. You are a true pro. It is helpful. Thank you so much.
Thanks so much! 😊🙏
Brilliant!
"Dead silence sounds unnatural!"
Super useful tip!
personally, i just want to say God bless you for this video!!!!
boom! the noise floor issue nearly sunk me on my last project b/c I couldn't figure out how to reduce the background noise (w noise reduction effect) w/o bottoming out the noise floor. now i know & can fly w my current project. thanks Josh! :)
Hi. Thank you for your videos, it really helps a lot. I have one question, by editing my first podcast episode, I have some trouble with noise and when I start with a noise gate, it works pretty cool, but after loudness normalization and limiter, I have again same situation with a noise.
And maybe one suggestion, it would be very cool, If you would make one video about editing podcast, when I have two and more speakers, I think it has some specific issues.
Again, thank you for your videos:)
Apply noise reduction at the end 😊
Any idea how to fix a -infinte noise floor? I just recorded my first acx audition and used the acx check. I tried your tips and some others I found in my search for answers for but can't seem to get a number on my noise floor at all, just keep getting negative infinite. Do I just need to re-record the whole thing? And if so how do I keep that from happening in the future?
I'm using audacity with a fifine T669 in my home made booth
Question on the noisefloor. If your not killing your noise floor how do u make sure your floor is low enough that it’s not bringing in mic noise, especially in gaps where your not speaking? When ever I record my mic is constantly bouncing at just below 54 even when I’m silent, which I guess is not too bad but obviously there’s noise there. Granted my rooms untreated, which brings me to my next question. If I’m going to treat my room to get rid of ambience which could potentially stop my mic bouncing when I’m not speaking, how do you treat the ambience in a way your not killing your noise floor? Coz surely it’s the room ambience that’s preventing your floor from not being dead even if ur in a naturally echoey room no?
6:28 mine did mess with more than the noise floor. It made everything fail. 7:26 fixed one but RMS is still failing at too high now. Update!!! So sorry I didn't see you said 3.2 and had 3.0. YES 🙂 fixed 100% You are Awesome! Thank you
I must be doing something wrong, because when I apply a graphic EQ as shown, it completely distorts my audio track. When you apply it in the video, there's no noticable effect on the track at all, but when I do it, it literally changes everything (even if I only change 20 or 25 and/or 20k). Does it matter if you apply this EQ before or after other effects, such as compression?
just pressing like in advance , because you are spreading knowledge
Haha you’re awesome! 🙏. Definitely some solid info in there. I also talk about the VO game and how I’m going to make another more in depth video about that soon 🤙. I Appreciate you fam!
@@VoiceOverMaster do you use fab filter pro eq 3 for mastering?
@@trxn-qvilofficial1521 Nope. I use schooling, training, and my own techniques developed over time. With these things, you can really customize by hand. Plus, with these skills any helper software you use can be really dialed in.💪🤙
Genius!
Thanks
You’re welcome Christopher!
Josh, love your vids and free EQ's, much appreciated and I've learned a lot. However, I don't like this method of raising the noise floor. If your noise floor starts out REALLY low, and you do this repetitive EQ adjustment, and then lop the peaks, you can really trash the audio. This can all be avoided. Take a sample of room tone that's louder than the existing room tone (just amplify a sample of what's already there), loop it until it's the length of your project, and mix the tracks. It may take a few tries to get the balance right but it's an instant boost to your noise floor and doesn't wash out the audio as much. Cheers!
^ This is the correct (or at least a better) solution. A much cleaner final result than using EQ.
Hey Josh, Love your videos, I'm still having trouble passing the acx test with the noise floor being too low. I did the same thing with the graphic eq but it just seems to throw everything else out of wack and still not pass. Any suggestion?
I released a video about raising the noise floor with eq. That will help you🤙
That's an interesting way of doing it. I, personally, create an empty mono track and then generate noise (Brownian: 0.002). Then I mix the two tracks into a new track before exporting in .mp3. This will move the noise floor of your finished track from -120db to -70db and pass the ACX check with flying colors. I have to say that the concept of too little noise is baffling to me.
Your way works! Thank you so much for this.
@@josephinebeintema That’s great to hear. All the best!
A really awesome fix! The video's way ended up with me getting really harsh cutoffs on my peaks (probably my fault tbf) but this worked great!
Super helpful tute 👍 Applying this fix for 'dead silence sounds unnatural' with reductions over 92.
Unfortunately applying more than once (if not fixed the first time...which has happened 😒) has resulted in my narration track sounding 'boomy' bassey, or plosive in places that are not. Suggestions?
Same happened to me.
Hi Josh, I recorded a clip who has too much room echo affecting the voices. Is there a straightforward way to fix this in Audacity? I've tried a few things based on tutorials etc but I'm still nowhere near the sound I want. Tinkering too much with the audio file reduces the volume and then turning that back up in the project just sounds rough. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks Julie
Unfortunately the only real way is to treat the room for sound. Good luck!
Thank you! I just wondering if you able to teach us how to remove clicks in audio, especially inside the words, because those clicks are very annoying and hard to remove them, eventhough I used declicker it doesn't work, those clicks are still there sometimes.
There are de clicker plugins available online. Check the audacity forums😊
Does this method still work? I've noticed the ACX Check tool you've used is old. I'm working on my first audio book and I've run into this issue on my 15min checkpoint submission.
Yes, it should still work 🤙
What do you do if EQ won't work. I've used it 8 times and still need it increased
Thhhhaaaannnnkkkkk yooouuuuuuuu. Crisis averted.
Okay, just did what you did and brought my numbers way out of control and I am at the end of my rope! Don't know what I am doing wrong. This is my first audiobook ever and my deadline is in a few days. Don't know what to do, bro.
Guess what? Solved my problems with something I did not know about before....audio interface! I bought a Focusrite Scarlett Solo and it has completed upgraded my recording clarity!
Hello, sensei. You have a few typos in your video title. I think I just learned that I won't be able to silence sections of audio for e-books the way I have learned for voice overs.
Thank you!😂🙏❤️
I'm sure I'm missing the obvious but I'm not a tech person- how do you put the "Josh Meyer's Female EQ 1" link from the description into Audacity? Is it a plug in...?
Yes, it is a plugin and Josh has the directions to install plugins into Audacity. I have added a couple of Eq's plus ACX Check.
Let me know when you release ur video for actors that are learning voice acting cuz I will promote it on my Facebook with 5,000 friends for the actors from Lizzie Borden Audio unless you don't want me to, of course! LoL...😎
Hahaha will do Kate!😊❤️. You’re awesome
This doesn't apply to this video, but when do you use a noise gate vs noise reduction
You can use both. Noise reduction with reduce room noise even while you’re speaking. Noise gate can stifle everything in between. NR first then NG. 💪🤙
The noisefloor being too low is a real problem. I have rerecorded certain portions of an audiobook for submittal and everything passes until I start adding silences to cover-up breaths. Does anyone know of a good workaround for this so I can use the silence tool but still get that result?
Using a fade out gets the same result. I need to get rid of some breaths!
from what ive seen, you dont want to add silence - instead you want to cut a piece of the room tone and place it over whatever you wanna cover up.
Great content man. It says sloved in the title, not solved though.
♥️
Thanks Gloria!❤️
how do you even have acx on there on analyze mine isnt there
Yes, it is a plugin and Josh has the directions to install plugins into Audacity. I have added a couple of Eq's plus ACX Check.
Nope. Still failed, and this was too crammed full of ads for me to follow.
I love your videos but misspelling drives me nuts. I am referring to the word "sloved". Shouldn't it read "solved"?
Written with love.
Skip to 6:20.
Ad from 2:15 to 5:03
Skip to 06:00
too much BS and selling before the solution.
If it is for you... just don't watch him!! Also you can also fast forward ❤
37 seconds of actual instruction littered across 9 minutes of narcissistic ego-stroking, arrogant self-promotion, and sociopathic condescension from a guy who chose the perfect career for himself, based on how much he loves listening to the sound of his own voice.
That’s….oddly specific. Sounds like you’ve got some inadequacies & envy to work out.
@@ThorntonNoir I wanted to write a similiar review, but I dound yours and just liked it.. this dude thinks he is the real deal!, he claims to be THE Audacity expert yet, he keeps looking for the functions in all pop up menues!
This is exactly what I was thinking. What an absolutely awful uninformative video from a guy who knows very little pretending like he knows a lot.
Thanks for wasting my time. When you finally did get around to covering the topic you gave NO INSTRUCTIONS THAT WERE FOLLOWABLE.
