![]() You might also try using a high-pass filter to remove the really deep bass (below 40 or 50 Hz). I believe Audacity’s Hard Limiter effect is really a hard- clipping effect so you may want to look for a better limiter plug-in that can “round over” the peaks without as much distortion… I think that’s what you really need… A good limiter applied after boosting the bass. There are several settings to experiment with, but normally a compressor (and/or limiter) is used to boost the overall volume without clipping/distorting the peaks. ![]() If that sounds too harsh or distorted, you can try the Compressor effect. That means if you just boost the bass, you might not hear the clipping/limiting unless you have the playback volume set to 100%, or until after you save the file as a normal 16-bit or 24-bit WAV.Īfter boosting the bass, try the Hard Limiter effect set to 0dB. However, Audacity (like most audio editors) uses floating-point internally, so it can “temporarily” go over 0dB. Some background - Most audio formats (as well as your digital-to-analog converters) are limited to 0dB (=1.0 =100%). A lot of modern music is produced like this. I’m not saying it’s bad if that’s what you want. ![]() ![]() If you record live music played with real instruments, it’s a lot more dynamic (with louder & quieter parts). Even the top waveform isn’t what “natural music” looks like. The flat-top dense waveforms indicate limiting or perhaps clipping (distortion). ![]()
