Quick answer
Import the recording.
Find the clearest and loudest spoken section.
Raise gain in small steps.
Reduce low-end rumble if the voice sounds buried.
Export a clearer copy for review or transcription.
Why transcription audio is different
For transcription, the target is comprehension. The file should support words, consonants, and timing, not cinematic impact or heavy bass.
What helps most
Moderate gain plus cleaner voice balance usually works better than maximum volume. A recording that is slightly quieter but more intelligible is often better for transcription than one that is louder and rougher.
Where this helps
This works well for interviews, lectures, notes, meetings, and any speech-first recording that needs to be replayed carefully later.
