This recording is brought to you by FOSS 😂

Have you found any 3rd-party plugins you like for pop removal, etc? I’m still looking. The built-in “fix” plugin doesn’t seem great.
The pop filter does a good job. I think getting a good recording in the first place is key, so physically mitigating pops is best.
In post, all I do is normalize the volume, then manually silence breaths and shorten long pauses with a few macros.
This dynamic compressor plugin does wonders for volume, but won't do much for pops and such. https://github.com/theDanielJLewis/dynamic-compressor-for-audacity
