As for the clipping, I don't know what was used to record but it sounds like digital distortion, probably from coming in too hot in the sound card input. If it was recorded with a 1/8" jack microphone from the electronic store next door, you don't have much control over that besides, as you said, speaking away from the mic. The iZotope software is supposed to be able to edit that kind of thing and fix it | |
