Need to update your "Compressor" tutorial. It's changed in 3.6.1

[MeganTrueCrime]

Have used your tutorials for so long, amazing work 🎉 However audacity has just completely rebooted the compressor system, eagerly awaiting your updates 🙏🏽😭

[SetiPrime]

To those talking about a compressor select the "Legacy Compressor" option

[MichaelSandbox]

Content loudness is -19dB (a normalize might help you; why should you do it? because coming here from most other videos on yt, I have to get my volume from 40% to 70%). Thank you for the updated guide!
Edit: right click video > stats for nerds > volume

I recently started making asmr rp videos or whatever the proper term may actually be. I wouldn't have thought these settings would make such a drastic difference over what I had been doing. I tried them with a video I have recorded but hadn't began editing just to hear the difference and holy crap. You earned a sub from me for the help.

Thank you! These simple settings helped IMMENSELY!!! Thank you for sharing your discoveries! Just imagine how many people you've helped so far!

[realizedsoul]

love this tutorial. It's helping me repair a number of podcast recordings where the video software muffled my voice but not my guests' voices. Thank you!

The most important effect if you are uploading to YouTube is Loudness Normalisation... Which should be done at the very end... You can make your audio as loud as you like but when you upload to YouTube they will reduce the volume.. On the other hand if it's too low they will NOT increase the volume..

The compressor settings have changed, where will I find 'noise floor'?

[sevasentinel]

Thanks for this! Finally got my lazy butt to play around with Audacity.

[LunarX]

Thank you ! Had me fix a few issues I had as a newcomer :)

[mulliganman]

An alternative way of selecting the entire track(s) is to use the 'Select' button located at the bottom of the blue box to the left of the track.

[dadgamingonline]

Thanks for the video! Looking forward to the 3.6.1 version :D

[E_K_]

they changed the compressor so theres no noise floor what shoul i do

[MeTimeMeditations]

Thanks, this has been very helpful! I just set up my first macro. :)

[aailli]

Nice & concise, just like the last version!! However, I did notice two changes: in this one, you started with Noise Reduction instead of making it the final step, and during the Compressor part, you don't have make-up gain selected like you did before. Is there a reason for both of those changes? I assume they produce more optimal results, but perhaps it was just personal preference. Thanks again!!

[TheOGDuck_YT]

wait nevermind it would be great if you could still do one. Espesial;ly the COMPRESSOR is a lot different there's more settings to it now

[Luix_OS]

Hey, great video! I'd love to know more why you're using stereo for audio recordings and not mono? You could make a video about that! ;)

[DominoIncogneeto]

ooo what change nice😁but i digress it does depend on the voice other than that well done

[ChiralLegioN]

They changed the compressor settings, is there anyway you can update that part? i have no noise floor and Ratio is -100 - 100 instead of a 2:1 format
