Problem: Viewers forgive bad visuals but quit over bad audio. Here’s how to fix it fast:

1. Silence Background Noise (30-Second Fix)
Best for: Hums, AC noise, camera hiss
Tools: Audacity (Free) / Premiere Pro

  • Quick fix: Select noise sample → Effects → Noise Reduction → Apply (50% strength)
  • Pro move: Add “High Pass Filter” at 80Hz to kill rumbles

2. Make Vocals Pop (Magic EQ Settings)
Works in ANY software:

  • Cut 250Hz (-3dB) → reduces “mud”
  • Boost 3kHz (+2dB) → adds clarity
  • Bonus: Light compression (4:1 ratio) to smooth volume

3. Perfect Music Balance

  • Dialogue volume: -6dB
  • Music volume: -16dB (during speech)
  • Visual trick: Music waveform should look HALF as tall as vocals

4. Fix Dubbing Like a Pro

  • Zoom in → match mouth movements to waveform peaks
  • Secret: Stretch audio (never more than 5%) for better sync
