A client came to me today with a CD copy of a digital recording he wants cleaned up. It is almost not intelligible but it is very important to the client (he's a policeman that says he was fired unjustly and the recording can prove him right.)
I am willing to pay for help on this. If interested please listen to the mp3 sample at soundclick.com/GRB53 ... it's at the top titled "conversation".
If you think you can help I can email you the uncompressed file.
Thanks very much,
Randy

It can be made louder and a little less painful but I'm afraid your friend might need an expert to testify to what they hear in the recording. There's not much there on the recording to salvage. Certainly not to the point most folks could understand it.
Sorry,
Jesse

Thanks Jesse,
I contacted a forensic audiologist and they quoted $250/hr with a 3 hr minimum. The client freaked so I gave him what I did (slightly better) for $50 and sent him on his way.
Thanks again,
Randy
