  • How do you lower someones voice? Like in an “undercover” show or “witness protection”?

    Someone mentioned pitch shift… but I can’t seem to find it. I know that you can slow down the entire clip (including picture) but that’s to dramatic effect for me.
    Also, I need the video and audio to still be in sync. I just want it to sound deeper or sort of mechanical… like the voice is being disguised on purpose… if that makes sense?

    You have FCP studio? Go into soundtrack pro and use the effect under Mac OS effects – pitch

    There is no pitch shift in FCP. I don’t think very many NLEs would have such a feature, though most audio editors should have it. If you don’t have SoundTrack Pro, you should have gotten a free copy of Peak DV or Peak LE with FCP, or you could download the free, open source, audio editor Audacity at https://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/mac.

    yes, there IS a pitch shift in FCP5.
    i cant remember if it’s in the AU filters, or the FCP filters, but it’s caled “Pitch”

    it’s bristiling with controls, and i have no idea what they all do!

    but one’s called “Pitch” or maybe just has a percentage sign.
    theat’s the one.

    Peak only does pitch shift in the full version, not the Peak DV version
