Effects chain sequence for voice-over?

I am watching tutorials on effects for voice over-audio production and am surprised at how the recipes are different, depending on what producer is approached. The current recipe I have is EQ, gate, compression, limiter, de-ess and then normalize.

RE: Bad Audio on track 2 of the timeline, video pro X11

Thanks for the responses. In my case it was the mixer. I can't remember the last time I opened the mixer, but there it was the FX button was pushed on track 2 and lows were cut. I work with interviews done on a variety gear so I adjust EQ and volume

RE: Wavehammer 2.0, can someone elaborate a little on it?

Here is a free 1.5 octave graphic EQ that I like from https://www.manda-audio.com/products.phpIt sports a separate HP and LP filter section with 6,12 or 24 dB/oct slopes. The UI is real nice and most importantly, it sounds good.

RE: If you have SFP suite, what happens if you upgrade core only?

Magix does send deals that are hard to pass up. The only current one I know of is to buy 15 now and get 16 when it comes out. But that will not stop them from sending pre-order enquiries or other deals. It's all a matter of what they have in 16 that

bandwidth in octave for the EQ to a speech man/woman

Hi, I search the bandwidth in octave for the EQ to a speech man/woman. The frequency is between 50 Hz to 300Hz. I found a calculator and find 2.6 octave. It seems high. Do you think it's correct ? How I can confirm this number ? Thanks a lot.
