HOW TO: Process Vocals For Your Podcast / Video (Noise Reduction, Compression, EQ & Limiting)
I thought I would share my audio processing workflow.
- Clean signal recorded from -24 to -12 db
- RE20 is my mic of choice
- Apollo interface
- De-Noise or gate
- De-click (for mouth clicks. Not seen in video tutorial)
- Low cut at 40hz and High cut at 20000hz
- Compressor - quick attack and release 4:1 ratio
- Compressor - slow release and attack 2:1 ratio
- EQ to taste. usually cut 450hz, boost 7000+hz, bump around 100hz
- De-esser (not seen in video tutorial)
- Limiter
Hope this helps some people! I know people apply different effects at different parts of the processing chain, but this is the order that works for me.

Question, would you still need izotope RX if you have universal audio apollo with the plug-ins? Also do you have a course on how to edit audio for voice-overs?
