How to make footsteps for a group sound good
Hello, as the title says I'm attempting to make a sound effect for a scene where three characters are walking along a stone path together. I came up with a sound effect for each person's footsteps that I think sounds fine on their own, but when I play them all together it just sounds chaotic and wrong.
The program I'm using is Audacity, the sfx I'm making this for is a comic dub so I don't have animation to base the timing off of. Common solutions I've tried: Filter curve EQ (made the steps sound better, but like I said the timing sounds wrong when all the tracks are put together), Auto-Duck (didn't really work the way I wanted it to, maybe because of the settings), panning the tracks based on where the characters are, and changing the pitch and tempo of the sfxs.
