In my narration track I have three distinct sounds:
1. The narrator speaking
2. The analogue hiss of the track when he's pausing for a few seconds (sounds pleasant enough)
3. Total digital silence where the analogue hiss drops off because I inserted a gap.
The Problem
The difference between the analogue hiss and digital silence is BIG, and jars when you listen to it. You really notice the drop off into digital silence.
Two choices:
1) Change the noise floor so there's less hiss, and the difference between the analogue hiss and digital silence is not so great. (Maybe I'll lose some of the sound character like this.)
2) Insert some analogue silence in the digital gaps, so there's a smoother more continuous hiss background. (I can do this but it's fiddly and'll take a couple of days)
What do the pros do????
Thx if you answer this.
