You'll see different colors on the scale when you play the audio. For example, if the bar goes from green to red, it indicates that the music is way too loud. So, try to keep the audio levels in the green area.
Use the sliders for audio editing
By using the slider or entering the value inbox, you can adjust the volume of the music. The numbers indicate the intensity of the sound and are measured in decibels.

Select Remove background noise from the drop-down menu.
Move the slider to the desired amount of noise reduction (Weak, Mid, or Strong).

The more you remove the background noises, it may end up distorting your voice. Experiment and see which one works best for you.
