I'd be quite interested in such an article, again, my goal (besides VoIP) is screencasting and/or streaming, so any bit of advice someone with experience might have is greatly useful.

I'll look into expansion and compression, and I could implement a wet/dry setting that multiplies the source samples and then mixes them into the result, if I understood the concept right.

EDIT: RNNoise seems to be alright when it comes to canceling noise during speech too, I didn't notice it overdoing it.

Haven't tested your version yet, but werman/noise-suppression-for-voice plugin introduces some delay and dumb wet/dry control (or mixing with original sound source in some other way) doesn't work, so it might turn out to be not so simple.

Right now there's no such feature in place, but I imagine keeping the buffer from before denoising and mixing it into the denoised result (plus the multiplication) will do what you're describing? It may increase volume, I might need to reduce the volume of the denoised audio first. I'll play around with it, and am open to hearing what you've got to say about it.
