Combine Multiple Audio Files into a single higher-quality audio File
- by namenlos
BACKGROUND
My team gave a demo to a large audience - we recorded the audio of the demo in multiple locations in the room (3)
the audio was recorded using cheap laptop microphones
I was not involved in the recording of the audio or the demo
Both audio files suck in some form
the first one is of a recording near the speaker - which clearly gets his voice but the the audience is audience is muffled - also this one is slightly noisy
The second recording was done in the middle of the audience - it gets the audience questions clearly but actually gets the speaker rather sometimes well and sometimes poorly (not all the speakers spoke loudly enough to be heard)
MY QUESTION
Is there any techinque or software which can be used to merge these audio files in such a way that the best qualities of each are preserved.
I am NOT asking now to simply merge them together in one track - I've already done that in Audacity and it is certainly better - what I am looking for could be considered closer to how HDR images are created - multiple exposures combined into an enhanced new version which is not simply an average of the inputs.
NOTE
Am not an "Audio" guy - just a normal user
