February 11, 2006 at 3:45 pm in reply to: “Voiceover” for TV commmercial… need to clean it up…I certainly would use a large diaphram mic and pre-amp … Once you record it and are happy with the content I would first experiment with a low and mid range filter using the PARAMETRIC EQ, then do a hard limit with the max amp set to -.1db … This will fatten it up and give you a really full sound … As for putting a label on it, “VOICE OVER” is pretty much the industry standard but I personally give you permission to call it anything you want Grasshopper …… WILLIE

February 7, 2006 at 3:41 pm in reply to: newbie to audition – try to lower frequency in part of audio fileHere’s the problem … The crowd noise covers a wide frequency, unfortunately within that band is the announcers voice which means when you take out crowd or try to boost the announcer it affects both and you gain nothing … I think it is what it is and there really isn’t much that can be done … It comes down to when you shoot the video you need to be able to record the audio on another recorder that is closer to the announcer so you can cut the crowd noise ……….

Bpete,
Your moccasins may get a bit wetter … I always use the program defaults other than setting my reseve for my temp files higher, I will usually set them to 1 gig … I am runng an AMD XP 3200+ and haven’t had any problems with running the video in the multi track view … As far as edit time goes like sanity it’s a relative term … I have spent hours on 3 minutes worth of audio only to junk it in the end … I think you need to work on it till you are happy with the sound no matter the time, when it comes to audio in my opinion the phrase “that’s good enough” doesn’t apply … You can have video footage that may have a problem or two but when it comes to audio if it aint right it’s like fingernails on a chaulkboard or maybe I’m just too anal retentive for my own good … Make it right grasshopper and the world will love you for it ……….

BrAd,
If the voice is already recorded a noise gate won’t help unless you run it through and re-record it … If it hasn’t been recorded or you can re-record here is what you do … The best thing is a stereo compressor limiter … You go from the mic to the input of channel one then run the output of channel one back into the input of channel two then output that into Audition … Here is why this works so well … When you limit (as was said in the last post too much) it can cut off sounds that you want and you will hear the noise gate opening and closing, this is called “breathing”… With this method you use half the value on each channel that it would take you if you were using a single channel limiter, making the breathing of the noise gate silent and it won’t cut anything off … The northwest rules … The other guy in Bremerton

BrAd,
Oh in a perfect world how easy things would be … You could try to capture just the breath sounds with the noise removal feature, but I think you will have problems with digitizing the audio track … I used to be anal about breath sounds and would go through the clip and remove them one at a time, but then I discovered how it made the track sound too clean … I would say the best way to do it is in the spectral view using the single clip removal feature but if you have a lot of breath sounds make sure you have a very strong pot of coffee to keep you awake and some eyedrops to keep you lids from sticking to your eyeballs ……… WILLIE
