Normalize adobe audition manual#
I'm open to considering other software (than Soundbooth) if it will cut out any of the manual labour of producing these files.įor the normalization part you can also use normalize: normalize v0.253 (c) 2000-2004 Manuel Kasper. Thanks in advance for any guidance you can give. I don't want to skimp on the quality - I need to ensure that each file is very closely matched in terms of perceived volume - but I would really like to find a reliable way to automate this. So it's this last step that I really want to avoid. This takes a LONG time, longer still because there's only so much of it I can do in one sitting without losing the plot. So as a further job, I go through every file making manual volume correction. The issue is that, even after doing this there can be some files that are way off. I then cut the recordings into the individual files (which takes forever)Īt this point I find that there can be quite large variances in the volume between the individual files so I use the "Volume Correction" task in Soundbooth to match them all to a reference file.I then fix up each of these files, normalising them and applying noise reduction (specifically, I use the "Clean up audio" function and "Advanced Dynamics" which seem to give a nice, clear result).I make the recordings in as few takes as possible.I've approached this as follows (I'm using Adobe Soundbooth for all the steps below): For a project I'm working on, I need to produce approx 5000 voice-only recordings of approx 15 seconds each (typically each file is a couple of short sentences spoken aloud).
