So I've got a tape from a club session that's giving me a real
challenge. The music levels are actually quite good, the tracks play with nice clarity, but the mic audio is way too loud and distorted, sounding grainy and far too intense for quality listening. How do I isolate the mic vocals, reduce volume and restore clarity without severely distorting the backing tracks? I've been messing with the equaliser and have found the ranges where the mic is at, but I can't get rid of the grit and grain of the vocals. The track is very loud but low in db, it doesn't peak unless I amplify the track to 0db, after which it hits the red. Any advice is appreciated.
