Audacity's Compressor Overhaul: What VO Artists and Podcasters Need to Know

In this episode of The Pro Audio Suite, the team dive into the recent updates to Audacity’s compressor and limiter features. These changes have caused quite a stir, particularly among voiceover artists and podcasters who rely on Audacity for mastering their projects. George “The Tech” Whittam shares his insights on the updates, highlighting what works, what doesn’t, and what it all means for your workflow. Plus, we discuss the frustrations that come with software updates and how to navigate them without pulling your hair out. Special thanks to our sponsors, Tribooth, and Austrian Audio, making passion heard.
