Equalization is usually the key. The hollowness is caused by certain frequencies of sound being emphasized by the acoustic properties of the room. Usually, reflections in the room will increase certain frequencies and decrease others. The first thing is find the frequency that is overly loud and reduce that. Then, attempt to judge what is missing from the audio. Finally, a little noise reduction can help. I would work in Soundtrack Pro.

There really is no way to remove reverberation from audio. At best, you might be able to reduce it very slightly, but with a reduction in your sound quality. The best thing to do is to bring this to an audio professional, a specialist. They probably won’t be able to really improve it very much, either.

All I’m sayin’ is that when it’s all you got, some EQ can help. It’s not the reverb you’re getting rid of at all, it’s just the unpleasant effect of room resonance. If a room rings like a bell at 300Hz, you can sometimes make a big difference by using a parametric eq at 300Hz to reduce the effect of that resonance on your recording.
