Someone recently commented on one of my previous videos asking how to fix low noise floor in a project for ACX audiobooks. While the noise floor needs to be less than -60dB to meet ACX requirements, there cannot be silence in your recording. In this video I show you one way to raise your noise floor if it's too low to meet ACX standards using Audacity.

Thank you!!! You are a life/time saver!!!! I spent hours upon hours messing with my mic, my daw, my studio, the surrounding rooms, and anything I could think of to try and up my noise floor mechanically or naturally, but nothing was working right. I spent a long time searching the web and videos as well but very few people mention how to fix a too quiet noise floor. You just made my morning, after a night of wanting to just give up. Thank you so much!!! Now I think I'll check out what other videos you have on here.

Great Video. How can I get the ACX analysis to show in the menue?

@NR-rv8rz 3 месяца назад

Massive help. Would be great if you could upload the room sound recording somewhere we could download it. I have a decent Audio Technica shotgun mic, sound booth equipment, SLobs and a GoXLR but my PC is near it all so not sure i'll be able to record quiet room noise.

Hi, I came across this video because I spent all day yesterday and half the night trying to fix the low noise floor on my recordings. Thank you for this solution. I'm going to try it now. Do you have any videos that address the opposite...too noisy?

AUDACITY’S PARENT OWNER IS A RUSSIAN COMPANY.😳 Older versions are NOT tied to a Russian based company. Muse Group, which purchased Audacity in 2021, is part of WSM Group. WSM is based in Kaliningrad, Russia. Much as I love Audacity I’ll stick to versions which came out before they were linked to Russia.
