Re: Audio EQ Settings For Voice And Music Mix?

You can improve the intelligibility of human voice by boosting the area around 1.8KHz by +3dB, Q=1. You can also reduce interference from the music by cutting a hole in the music at 1.8KHz by -3dB, Q=1. You can do this in FCP or STP, but STP gives you more choices.

You can also use compression to make a voice appear stronger and reduce background noise. However, most recorded music is already compressed, so additional compression probably won't help here. When voice and music compete, it's better to use the equalization technique above.
