Nero SoundTrax: Advice needed on how to make audio-files sound cleare

Hello;

 

I've just joined Blue Room, and really hope someone out there can help me with this query.

 

I need to transcribe some audio files (usually MP3 format. However, sometimes the clarity is not so good.

 

I am presently using NERO SoundTrax software (...for the first time..), and am wondering whether this package - of some other you can recommend, can enable me to concentrate on those portions of the audio-file that are indistinct, and make them play: (a) more slowly; and (b) more clearly?

 

What I want is to be able to hear what the speaker is saying really well; in order to transcribe correctly.

 

Looking forward to hearing from someone on this.

 

Kind regards,

'Audacity' is free to use and should do what you need.

Nero Sound Trax is quite a decent little program, but its function is really a multi track mixing and creation tool, and last time I used it it had not decent editing functions, its more for assembling mixed tracks. Nero Wave editor is for actually editing sound files and I think it can use VST plugins too.

Improve clarity though - yeah maybe. It will do basic stuff like EQ and compression and a certain amount of noise reduction. If the speaker was recorded with a duff mike that was some distance from mouth that is picking up all kinds of other extraneous noise then you may have a lot of work to do. And you may need better tools.
