GKIye Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Hi Frank, Attached you'll find an edit of your file ... I'm not really satisfied with the result .. I don't know why .. but it looks to Me that I couldn't lifted up your voice enough as it should be done .. I don't know what kind of mic you are using .. or maybe you used on your original vox sample already to much mid-sounds .. The cuts are ok .. but the quality isn't 100% ... Just as an example of what I'm used to do, if needed, you'll find attached a produced file of the set C-HITZ who's aired at my project. I made the edit of this produced file .. and you gonna notice during listening that all voices, with or without effect are on the same level ... Into the GKR :22 file I have used 5 different voices ... i really appricate you taking the time Anyway .. I hope you gonna like somehow the result of yours Visit and listen @ BW !

I hope you gonna like somehow the result of yours I Think to to honest i could do with buying a new mic as this one i have is a seriously cheap believe it or not Tie Clip mic with foam padding around it Although to me its sounds pretty good , It could also possibly be that ( And I have just Noticed this ) in my settings the bass tone is quite high and the treble tone is quite low, i guess giving the effects of low midtones prehaps ? I can record another clips with the settings more balanced and see how that pans out if you like ?

GKIye Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 If I understand it ok .. you are working with a kind of a RadioShack type of mic ? Well .. about what you write concerning your settings ... "thats" the main thing why it can't be uplifted. I asked you on top of this a DRY file with "no" EQ settings it looks that you however used EQ settings .. so if these are set as to heavy not a lot of people can bring it back to normal It could also possibly be that ( And I have just Noticed this ) in my settings the bass tone is quite high and the treble tone is quite low, I know that its easier to use some "more" or "heavy" bass on a cheap mic .. but that works out wrong if you use that mic to record your voice ... and PLUS the fact that you "decrease" your treble .. to be ok - at least - you have to add "more" treble Never the less .. the file where I was busy with for some hours wasn't that one who was needed .. concerning the general quality In fact adding "heavy" bass to a mic works out always the wrong way .. it makes the voice sounds slow, fat and not enjoyable Both to hardware and software an EQ setting to a mic is very similar : if you add +1 bass, add +1,5 untill +2 treble (+2 treble is to high but depends on the quality of your mics frequency range) "and" all that you make "more" with the bass and treble you gonna decrease by setting your mids to a minus value of for example -1 untill -1,5 both with hardware and software an EQ gonna look as the wings of a bird (they have a name for it in English .. but I can't remember) ... anyway your settings gonna look as a V-sign - that type of setting gonna make your voice sounds dry, full and sparkle clear. If a voice sample gonna be used at that time into edting software it can be edited in every possible way .. (see my GKR C-HITZ sample) Hope these details were usefull Visit and listen @ BW !

frankallen Posted June 6, 2009 Author Share Posted June 6, 2009 Indeed and i totally agree, I didnty realize the settings were like that on my pc this is what i use as a sound desk to amplify the sound as my laptop mic in is pretty naff. I heard the chitz track its very good maybe i will layoff voice overs untill i get a new mic Thanks again for all your help Frank http://i.imgur.com/qrEUBH7.png Check us out http://www.itsjustradio.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GKIye Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Hi Frank, Attached some edits on your voice .. once with voice only and once mixed with some SFX is it any better You gonna notice now that "your voice" stays "your voice" .. whatever effect is added to your voice PS : I made some quick effects on your voice .. so they are not all perfect as it should be ... but I'm more satisfied than yesterday If you would hear the same VOX samples as made with a high quality mic .. i guess you gonna sound very very nice Enjoy !
