I create audio stories, and often use voices from amateurs from all over the world.
Often, their recordings are not ideal.
I can do things like noise filtering up to a point, correcting for lack of bass or treble.
I can advise them to get closer to the mic to reduce room reverb and not talk directly into the mic.
But sometimes, I get recordings which sound like SOMETHING is missing, but I don't know what. Like they were talking through a cardboard tube or the like.
I don't know how to correct for that. I could, if I knew what was missing. Simply get out the equalizer.
Is there a website that has common recording problems that can be solved using an equalizer with samples?
I've attached an example. He's got something funky going on in the background, that I can remove, but once that is gone, it sounds...I don't know...hollow?
