in reply to Video editing compensation for hearing problems

I think you will make speech less easy to understand if you allow only frequencies of 85hz to 255hz to pass. Those are the frequencies listed on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voice_frequency, but those are the fundamental frequencies and are best for vowels. Most consonants need higher frequencies than those to really understand what is being said. Using that range will give a sound that is like mumbling. I don't hear as well as I used to, and it is definitely the higher ones that I need.

    Thank you ExReg.
    I guess I have a little more than just the math to learn for this problem.
    I'll educate myself a little better before proceeding to the development phase. ^^
    Thx again :)

      Good luck! I hope you are able to find a workable solution. Try playing with something like Audacity and see what filters might work before putting too much effort into coding. I have had to learn it recently to do some "post production" work and have written code for audio spectral analysis in the past. A lot can be done, but it will probably come via trial and error.
