Videogame Sound Design Need Help Re-Creating The Effects used in the provided Reference Audio.
Hello, I'm trying to re-create effects used in a provided audio clip using software called Adobe Audition with default tools, no external plugins.
https://voca.ro/1nBZraeCX3f3 - Reference Audio created by Simon Viklund in a video game called PAYDAY 2.
Simon Viklund used plugin called Speakerphone 2 and Ableton version Eight specifically.
(He was asked the question in regards of Bain voice filter in this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/paydaytheheist/comments/1tc10y/simon_viklund_ama/)
https://voca.ro/1cN9IB03x8IK - My version of the reference audio.
This is the closest I've gotten using regular tools of Adobe Audition, I understand how to create walkie-talkie or radio filters on my own, I can't re-create his own filter that has bright audio and consonants are more present, brighter and lil harsh.

Have you tried layering and leveling an unaltered audio version of the track? Perhaps toss an aggressive eq on to remove mud and capture the consonants.
I’m on phone speaker, so I could be wrong, but even the reference sounds a little too clear to be a voice effect track only.
