Double audio on meeting recording

Hi folks - I recently hosted an interview as a zoom meeting. I pulled up the recording, and everything appears to be double tracked. I'm wondering if there is a way to de-dupe the recording so I can create cleaner audio

As an audio and broadcast engineer I can tell you that computer audio can be very complicated. It is not clear what you mean by "double tracked". Did you mean you can hear the same audio twice on one track or you can see that the same audio is recorded on 2 different tracks. If the latter then there are numerous editing programs that can delete the extra track. If the former then no removal is possible.

If this works please click accept as a solution.

I mean that I can hear the same audio twice (does not appear to start at the same time) in the same recording channel. It sounds like it can't be fixed. Appreciate the insight in your answer

Thanks for the reply - understood that my language was confusing here - to clarify, the recording of my interview in this meeting session appears twice. There is a layer of the same discussion on top of the original layer of discussion. To be clear, from the perspective of an audio engineer there may not be, technically speaking, a second 'layer' here. But the same conversation seems to have been recorded twice, which one conversation output on top of the other, and the timestamps on the two are not the same. 

Based on the description above, it sounds like it can't be cleaned up, which is a bummer. But understood. I'll look at it and listen to it again and if I've somehow misread what I interpret as the situation, I'll revisit here. But for now, sounds like I'm stuck.

Appreciate your help
