Re: Spectral view
Gotcha... I'll let you navigate that budget. :wink: As far as Elements - it goes on sale in the $29 range from time to time, and then you can usually find a discounted upgrade option to Standard every quarter or so. If it's not essential, that can be a moderately more economical path to getting it. ...

Re: Spectral view
In terms of Spectral tools, Izotope RX is much more evolved than any you mentioned.
Yes, it's pricey, but the implementation and restoration tools are significant. If you are doing that type of work, it's likely worth the investment.

Re: Audiobook Recording For ACX
Martin gives good salient advice - start with the space and the quality of the recording. If the core audio is bad, it's very, very difficult to fix afterwards. I master and narrate audiobooks for a living. Here are some other points. Raw recordings should be done in uncompressed audio file formats ...

Combine effects for repeated tasks
All the Apple AU's are stock plug-ins which come with any system. AU = Audio Units, an apple plug-in standard (others are VST, AAX) You could use the AU Graphic Equalizer if you prefer that type of interface. All the Amadeus "X-band Equalizers" are Graphic EQ's. You could do multiple pas...

That was supposed to be helpful. "Audio Units Rack" is a core function in Amadeus Pro. It's the process by which you combine multiple AU Effects into a single step. You could then automate that tool with a keyboard equivalent at the Apple System level.All of which is described in gre...

How to equalise loudness across a number of voice recordings
Most Normalize processes work with either Peak (not Peak RMS) which is the loudest single wave in the file. They can also be set to Normalize by RMS (in AP, it actually says it does so with the Maximal RMS - most use Average). In either case if you change one, it changes the other by the same am...

How to equalise loudness across a number of voice recordings
RMS is a better way to balance. Peak is simply the loudest single cycle (wave) in the file. One loud click could throw things off if you are normalizing by Peak. Using stock plugins, you could use the limiter and then normalize down to a reasonable level. Typical RMS targets for audiobooks are -18 t...

Spoken Word Audiobook Settings
I generally don't recommend the various Leveler plug-ins for audiobook work. I've used them a few times for wrangling podcast interviews which tend to have wildly varying levels. But for audiobooks, they can cause noise floor issues. And generally the performance is much more controlled - both ...

MacOS Catalina 64-bit
While the application is 64 bit, you should be mindful that almost every audio software company has advised not to upgrade immediately. Unless Catalina is mission-critical for your business (which is reasonably unlikely), it might be a better strategy to let others do the beta testing... ;^) Here's...
