STEP 2: Make Louds Softer and Softs Louder
+
+Now you need to find the "Dynamic Range Compressor" effect and the sliders as follows:
+
+
+
+
Threshold: -18 dB
+
Noise Floor: -50 dB
+
Ratio: 2:1
+
Attack Time: 0.20 Secs
+
Release Time: 1.0 Secs
+
+
+
+Enable "Make-up gain for 0 dB after compressing" and disable "Compress based on Peaks", then hit okay.
+
+
+
+
+
+
STEP 3: Make Voice Sound More Clear
+
+Open your EQ (Equalization) effect and copy the settings on the chart below. Keep in mind that these settings may very depending on your voice and microphone, so it may require some tampering to get it right.
+
+
+
+
+
+
STEP 4: Smooth Out Peak Levels
+
+Find the "Normalize" effect. This one will help smooth out the louder parts of your audio.
+
+
+
+Turn on "Remove DC offset" and "Normalize maximum aplitude to", setting it to "-2.0 dB"; disable "Normalize stereo channels independantly", then click "ok" to apply.
+
+
+
+
+
+
STEP 5: Use Chains (optional)
+
+The last thing recommended by u/kyleblane was to use chains to automate this. More information on how to do that in the video below.
