I wonder how many people are doing that much extra work behind the scenes. Ross Scott was recently talking about manually editing out some very subtle sound that wasn't being filtered out from certain words.

You can remove alot of it with mic choice/technique, in the same ways that you can enhance it.

There are also plugins that take care of at least most of it now, but it's not going to get rid of every instance of it. In current year, if you want 100% of it, it makes more sense to just train a model on your speech and fake all of the audio instead of recording it, then re-record only the parts you don't find acceptable.

Do you know of any free and open source voice cloning models? I once read a suggestion to use a recording of one's own voice as an alarm clock, as we respond strongly more our own voices. Perhaps there is some nascent narcissism of mine to be developed for fun and profit!
