Best Video Editor For Boosting Volume On Portion Of Video?

  • 11

I have a small video file made by a video camera while it was held by me. My voice is clearly audible, whereas the person yelling towards me from a few yards away is a much lower volume on the video.

Anyone have suggestions for a good video editor that can boost the harder-to-hear portions of the video, while leaving the interspersed audio of my voice unchanged in volume?

Thanks for any and all help.

  1. Thinking further, what it seems you really want is to equalise the volume level (ie loud made softer, softer made louder. This is something domestic players quite often do with hardware. Although WMM does not exactly do this, tinkering with the two sliders “audio from video” and “audio/music” might help – see here:

    There “might” be a program that includes a volume levelling feature out there but take care, as given in #3 and #4. Make sure you watch out for any goodies they try to foist on you and uncheck them or go for custom install. Also, if you find something you fancy Google around for that name with the word spyware or malware – it can unearth what folk are saying.

    Always pop back and let us know the outcome – thanks
