How to Edit An Imported Audio File In GB
I am new to GB and just want to do basic editing of old cassette tape conversations between family members. I have spent untold hours learning GB on YouTube and via the community ... community feedback has been excellent. Here is what I am learning to do:
- Raise and lower the voice levels
- Reduce / eliminate some mild background hiss
- Speed-up and slow-down the audio by 10-15% in certain segments / regions
- Enhance voice quality / sharpness (need to improve chipmunk voice in a few areas)
With all I have learned, I still can't get tempo adjustments for certain regions to stick. Is this because I did not record the tapes directly into GB, but instead recorded them from a tape recorder / player with a USB port onto a thumb drive, then imported the audio file from the thumb drive into GB? If this is the issue, can I still make my desired edits (see above), but must I take a different approach? Bottom line - Is there a difference in editing when the audio is imported directly into GB vs. when the audio is imported as an audio file?
I am using a Mac - V 10.15.3, with GarageBand - V 10.3.4.
Thank you,
