I don't think so. Since the person recording doesn't know anything about music, I'm sure the simplest app was used. I'm not sure about EQing, but the rest is HIGHLY unlikely by the sound of it.

It's not actually such a bad recording. Boomy though.
I already performed high and low cut, EQing (with twelve bands), on some parts of the recording limiting and I used a compressor. The result isn't too bad, but I thought there might be a shortcut to get an even better starting point.

I'd rather not, since I'm doubtful, if the original task of recording was strictly legal. Yet since it was for a good course... Our friend, who was supposed to be there, since one of the tickets was his, isn't probably going to live much longer. I call that fair enough. :-)
As ever Fons: thanks for your valuable input! Much appreciated! <3
