From noise issues to ACX-ready audio – here’s what we covered
Over the past 3 sessions of the Audacity Accelerator Program, we’ve tackled some of the most frustrating audio problems people have been stuck with for months.
Here’s a quick peek at what happened in the final session (Day 3):
We compared different click-removal and de-essing plugins for Audacity, including which plugin works best and how to avoid introducing artifacts.
We dialed in audiobook audio settings that pass ACX requirements
We broke down real audiobook workflows – from using a dog clicker to mark mistakes to removing breaths without making speech sound mechanical.
We covered why plugin compatibility is a moving target in Audacity, and how to avoid wasting money on tools that won’t work in the future.
And we wrapped up with success stories – including how one client went from “completely confused” to “published audiobook” and another landed two narration jobs within 24 hours.
In case you missed the earlier sessions:
Day 1: We built a clean, repeatable processing workflow in Audacity – covering loudness, noise reduction, EQ, compression, and limiting – so you can stop guessing which effect to use next.
Day 2: We dove into macros, background music mixing, and advanced noise-reduction techniques, showing how to speed up editing while keeping quality high.
Why this matters:
When you try to figure all of this out alone, it can take months. In these 3 sessions, we cut straight to what works, and you get to see it in action on real audio, not just theory.
If you weren’t there live, the full replays are now available ($97): https://www.patreon.com/master_editor/shop/audacity-accelerator-program-live-3-day-2087065
The replays are available at $97 today, $149 from tomorrow
You’ll see exactly how I solved problems like mouth clicks, sibilance, harshness, and noise — the same ones that have been holding you back.
The sooner you watch, the sooner you can stop second-guessing your audio and start producing clean, professional sound with confidence.
