@anikid0392 Use amplify function to de-amplify parts that are too high, then you can normalize everything. I think that normalize generally wants everything to be around 3db though, which I’ve found for me is pretty loud. You may also want to amplify really quiet parts before normalizing, because the normalize fucntion adjusts the “average” range, so really extreme highs or lows can pull the range with them.
@timothyga01 Record guitar part, save it, put headphones on, go back to beginning of track and hit record again. You can record (as far as I know) an unlimited number of tracks on the same “project” as long as your hard drive has space. The headphones don’t have to have those fancy monitor thingies in them, I just use ipod earbuds and sometimes keep one out of my ear so I can hear myself. That way the mic won’t pick up the guitar track when you’re singing and make it sound bad.
@timothyga01 put it down below
@anikid0392 sounds like you should use normalize
I’m covering a song for a class project, it’s on wonderwall -Oasis and I have a recording program called audacity and I have a microphone that was about $30 for my computer. What I’m trying to do is record mysef playing guitar and then, record again, but this time, of me singing and then put it together so it is playing at the same time, is there a way to do that? what effect is it?
My voice keep going high and low. How do I make that equalized?
