There might be free DAWs (Digital-Audio-Workstation) with varying levels of functionality that you could try. With that said, since you only used one mic, equalization (EQ) might create more problems than it solves.Īudacity is very good for what it is, but this kind of tweaking is better suited for Digital-Audio-Workstation software, like Pro Tools, Logic, or Reaper, along with expensive plug-ins like ones from Izotope.

I don't remember Audacity having a remove-echo effect, but you might be able to improve the sound with a parametric equalizer. You can't remove echo/reverb, but you might be able to minimize it. That's a rough overview, I'm not an audio engineer. The LUFS unit of measure is used because it's more accurate than decibels. In a pro shoot they would put a mic on each person and instrument and adjust the loudness of each track (mixing) for the best overall sound, equalize (lower and boost frequencies) each track to sweeten the sound, compress (even out the difference between loud a quiet, not reduce file size), normalize to the desired levels (adjusting the loudness to a delivery standard, like -13 to -15 LUFS for YouTube).
