Okay, I now refuse to use Reaper. (I'm sorry but I'm more comfortable with Audacity thank you! >:sad: )

Besides I've been looking up stuff about compression on Audacity, and to tell you the truth it was less complicated, but I wanted some opinions on whether I did it right...

Also have I gotten any better, maybe just a baby step better, please?

It sounds quite good c: & YAY Audacity user so I can say things & you'll know what I'm saying xD

So I definitely think you got compression down, but now maybe some time to work on effects for the vocals? o3o I recommend some of the defualt EQs (Equalization) to start off with. Just remember that you use effects BEFORE you compress, so you don't have to compress multiple times.

Also, if you haven't already do View -> Show Clipping.
It'll then put a red bar wherever there's clipping on a track, so you can zoom in & fix it. It doesn't sound like there's clipping in this though. Good job :D

Thanks! :D
I did the compressing right!? Oh thank God! *Sighs in relief*
Oh I already know about the Show Clipping view (I try to fix as much clipping as I can.)
Oh okay I'm suppose to EQ first before everything else. Thank you so much! ^-^
