Thank you @Wolfram! I'm sorry for not replying sooner, life just happened to go nuts on me so I've not seen your reply before now. I'll give Steinberg Spectralayers another look when there is time. Thanks for the advice and taking the time to answer.

Thank you @BigRedX and thanks again @lowdown

Ah. Thanks. As you can probably tell I'm lacking in knowledge here. I'll have a look at Spectral layers and RX 11 Elements, (and maybe even AI though the whole concept freaks me out a bit). Having online tutorials to should make it easier to grasp things and as there are quite a few recordings to go through 68 pounds might be a good deal if I get my head around how to use it. I'll have a look on all your suggestions tonight. Thank you again for all your advice and help.

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply so thoroughly and for giving me plenty of options to look into @lowdown I really appreciate it! I'll look into Steinberg SpectraLayers, and Nuendo, and try to find YouTube videos online. The AI option is tempting to try out as I'm not skilled at all. Used to be able to handle GarageBand but that doesn't cut it here. Thank you!

Hi all, I've recorded sound on the Voice Memos app on iPhone using the mic on the phone and could really use som advice on how to improve the sound. I'd like to improve the speech and remove as much of the background noise/hissing as possible. The recordings are of rather poor quality unfortunately and I was wondering if there was a magic trick or two some of you would know of that would improve them. I've tried using the EQ and it helps a bit but it's still very much room for improvement. I'm not skilled in using Logic Pro, an absolute amateur in fact, so if there are easier (more idiot proof) ways that you know of to do it in GarageBand for instance (or any other app please) let me know. I'd truly appreciate all and any help as this is important to me. I might end up seeking help from a professional studio but I'd like to give it a go myself before spending a lot of money on this. Thank you in advance. ps. If I take some time to reply please excuse me, I'm more of a night owl on this forum and will probably take some time to answer any replies. Thank you again.

Edit: Removed all the drivel, so the whole post went. Apologies for the disturbance caused.

Some newer Hardcore from 1997. His Hero Is Gone, "Monument To Thieves" from 1997. "Like weeds we will grow." Love that line. ps. track nr 8 "Headless/Heartless" is a peach, as is trick nr 5 Automation.

https://www.todobajos.com/en/ A bass and bass equipment only shop in Madrid. Bought a bass from them a couple of years ago, a Sandberg that was sold out everywhere that I got for a reduced price. They are very nice and helpful people and I'd like to visit the shop sometime. Looks like a community shop and they put on concerts in their shop as well. edit: I've just seen they sell used basses as well.

Trying to make up for lack of bass with a Hammerhead song called "Brest", the drums and the bass groove are ace. Last one I promise, feck I'm trying to make thing more normal as if I want them to be, enjoy - it's a good exercise.

Whoops. Nearly forgot. You need som Assfactor 4 after all of that. Sorry for spamming. Over to Dorothy: well, that didn't work but it's around 11:50. I've gone to far, timestamp failure. Jesus I'm aging. Dorothy lyrics: To be ok with it any more, and not hopelessly clicking heels is alright. not wondering in and out of bars with f***ers saying I'm confused. I don't have to f***ign account for more than one thing on my mind and someone elses idea of being "confused" made me the luckiest kid in the god damn state Dear Grandpa is a lyrical favourite: "What they told me in their smoke signals - I just coughed" and "My mind's made up, I can't decide." "f*** hate breeders" is an absolute marvel: How can you live your life with hate as its base with silly anthems of the numb? your existence is spineless your heart is pathetic, your nothing without love. You knew for all this shit about responsibility that you float. above on bubbles made of cellophane you deserve all of the boredom you can spread on a bagel and shove it up your ass. ❤️ Yes, I'm fifteen one when I listen to the music that will be with me all my life. Not sorry for that. But I apologise for spamming. Especially if no-one doesn't find a trace of something that made something tingle and got them to search for more.

Slightly weird and brilliant hardcore punk from Morgantown, West Virginia. Year 1986. They could play.

An old favourite I'll always come back to. Italian anarcho punk from '92. The best two best female hardcore/punk vocals I've heard. (I only listen to the first two songs though. Not that the other two aren't any good, I'd just rather listen to the first two again.) Play it loud!

I don't really want a funeral. I'd rather have people I love have a party. But if there was to be a funeral I'd like Jugband Blues as the last and maybe only song. I'd be wearing a Liverpool shirt. I'd need to hire six strong men to lift the coffin at the right time (when the jug band starts playing) and skip happily towards the exit with my remains bashing around inside it. Then stop as Barrett starts to sing again. And walk in a who cares manner to the car that will take me to the cremation. I want my ashes spread in the river that runs through my city and into the sea. That's the only thing that is important to me. It's probably not legal which is a plus. Anyone attending should have plenty of drinks. Edit: Walk in music: Neurosis, "Lost". Find the first samples fitting and love the song. and I'd have this one as well:

Worked on a metal festival in 2005 lasting three or four days - they played on the last day. Drunk and wrecked people were lying everywhere so we thought excessive use of smoke cannons was a bad idea and turned them off to prevent people get trampled over. The room was filled with smoke when the decision was made and it made for an interesting half hour at work. To their credit they were loud enough to make most people pinch their eyes anyway so no smoke was really needed . Man they were loud. Which reminds me of an anekdote: A friend did lights at a Motorhead show and asked their sound engineer if they were always this loud and got told they used to be way louder in a manner that made me laugh: "It wasn't LOUD, it was like -squints eyes and shouts desperatly- YOU COULDN'T SEE!!". For further interesting info , look up the Tensor Tympani muscle which is usually coming into work when people squint their eyes because of noise. I can control it without squinting and probably many here can out of necessity for blocking loud noise/music. It produces a "distant thunder like" sound.
