I'm no expert, but what you can do to improve the sound is to record the audio and video separately (or to extract the audio from the video after you recorded it, and then put it back again), and then use Audacity's simple noise removal feature with the default settings to remove the outside noise from the track. Compare the first ten seconds of your latest video here.

Many thanks Samuel! I was able to open the file, the contrast is clear, it is encouraging, and I will definitely try to improve the sound quality with separate audio and video files.

criticism Dec 9, 2020

I have been receiving some harsh criticism about my hair and my voice, but I also got a constructive, albeit low-tech, piece of advice from my family for a clearer voice quality, and I thought I would share it with you:

"Prendre chaque soir avant le coucher, un bouillon chaud de magret de pangolin. Cela te permettra même de chanter plus mélodieusement que d'habitude la Missa Solemnis de Cherubini".
