    Of all the videos made by all the folks creating content for home audiobook narrators, this is, easily, the most accurate, straightforward, and useful tutorial I’ve seen. Thank you!

    Hey, thanks for the great tips. Can't find a downward expander on Logic pro X though. Any suggestions ? Waves maybe ? Thanks !

    Very helpful. Learned this the hard way when I finished my first audiobook and used my regular chain and it made things sound very unnatural

    Thanks for this. I’ve just finished recording my first audiobook so I’ll check it out. Any good advice on reducing hard ‘P’s’?

      pop filter and mic placement is best solution for low Ps, in post a "low cut" filter can be used to attenuate them slightly. Normally achieved using an EQ.

    Thank you. Can we have more of these broken up videos of one editing tip and more with unique editing for certain effects like radio, midnight radio, narration romance, children books and songs, with and without dramatic sound effects

    Several years ago I bought a deluxe computer-controlled audio interface that I found out the hard way had a noise gate baked into it. It sounded terrible, closed with an audible click every time I stopped speaking, and I'm sure I could have figured out how to turn it off but after editing out all those clicks I was so mad I just boxed it up and returned it and bought a Focusrite Scarlett. :-P

      I guess thats one way for a company to technically advertise "low pre amp noise". My first audio interface was a scarlett, good stuff ;)

    I agree with you about gates. Hate them. I've been producing spoken word audio for over 20 years and have used a gate, maybe, five times. Pretty much useless. Proper editing and noise reduction will get you there you every time and with much better results.

      I think the only time they are useful is for live events
