WOW! now I can hear the differences that recording space setting and type of mic, didn't know there are so many plug-ins in AUDITION to make voice over differently. I learnt a lot!
Absolutely amazing video. Thanks a lot for a valuable lesson! Been fiddling around with new acoustic panels I bought realizing (not so) soon enough that they don't help my situation that much and or I don't know where to place them properly :D
The microphone used in this video is a Neumann TLM 103. As the video explains, acoustic treatment on the walls of your recording space is most important to get the sound you're after. The microphone is not as important as the room treatment.
Mr. Lenny B, if the initial “small adjustments” (with replacing the first microphone, changing to 90-degrees angle, & moving around the acoustic-foam) were not possible, could some of the noise removal tools from Izotope Post Production Suite been the next best option at (1) removing the noticeable room tone/room reverb in the vocal recording? NOTE: Regarding the noise removal tools from Izotope Post Production Suite, I’m referring to using- and placing- the noise removal tools at the very first stage of the plugin side-chain (before the EQ, before the Compressor, etc.).
Hi Lorenzo, yes they could be used. However, you'll always get a better result by resolving the problem (in the recording space) rather than masking the problem with a restoration plugin. I usually put any restoration plugins first in the chain. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching.
Hi @tinlylittlefilms3042, I'd need to hear your audio to be sure, but I would say this. I would say the DAW doesn't matter to ensure room improvements sound the best possible. Mic choice and plugins would help optimize the most after room treatment. Acoustic treatment is the most significant factor! I hope that answers your question.
What do you think of the Auralex EditMAX kits for voice overs. Could this be used with nice bass traps in a small room or would you recommend only broadband acoustic panels for best results?
The best thing to do is to begin by sending me a sample of your voice recording audio. Please fill out the form and follow the instructions to submit an audio example here www.lennyb.com/get-your-voice-processed-submission-form

Love my RE20 with a good preamp.
Dang!!! This is gold.
Amazing video! Thank you Lenny B
Absolutely begins and ends with your environment. Always start with your room treatment first.
Awesome results! Thank's for sharing.

Thanks for the video Lenny! I'm using DIY accoustic panels in my bedroom (walls and ceiling). It's perfect with my NT-1000.
Thank you Lenny your content is so valuable! 👏🏻👏🏻

Yes sir.
Lenny, if you wanted to make sure improvements would you recommend Audacity, GarageBand, or only the plugins you mentioned here?

From my experience, it's ALL about the Broadband absorbers. By the way, I have a new course on the subject in the next several weeks.
Thanks Lenny! @@HeyLennyB
Okay I'm definitely going to head your way. I may be in trouble here shortly. On your website can you be emailed directly?

Hi there. I'm Looking to treat my room for voice over but don't know how or where to begin. Any tips?
Yes, you will find information that will save you time, money, and frustration here www.lennyb.com/blog/acoustictreatment
@@HeyLennyB Thanks for the reply. I actually visited your site earlier and would love to move forward in making a space to record in properly.
De-Esser at 41kHz and 63kHz ??? who hears anything at those frequencies??? Bats maybe...
Ha, good catch. I forgot to move my decimal point. 👍
Do u have all wall. Covered floor to ceiling with acoustic as seen wall behind u
No. I have a large portion of my room covered. However, there are a few walls and a window that is not.
