How to use Reaper FX Chain with Audacity for Podcast and Voiceover
Reaper can handle all your audio editing needs. However, if you're accustomed to another audio editor and wish to continue using it but require a stable editor for processing plugins such as EQ, compression, and setting loudness within an FX Chain, you can use Audacity (or another audio editor) for initial audio editing, and then complete the audio editing process in Reaper using its FX Chain. This allows you to take advantage of Reaper's stability and plugin processing capabilities using an FX Chain while still using your preferred audio editor. This video demonstrates how to adopt an audio editing strategy of using Audacity (or another audio editor) for the initial audio editing and then finish the audio editing process, including tasks such as noise removal, EQ, compression, setting loudness levels, etc. using Reaper’s FX Chain.
