Josh Meyer the VoiceOverMaster helped us at GIVERS University and we found his service to be very high. He cares about your project and treats it as though it was his own. Retain him and you will find he will overdeliver.
Givers University! You’re amazing. Love you all! 😊
@@VoiceOverMaster See when I record music josh I'm only using my USB M-Audio microphone i don't have a interface what should I do to sound good because I try to turn the USB volume down to 3 sometimes so that my vocals stay below 0.5 what do you suggest
Hi Josh,
have been going crazy trying to adjust my mic level before recording and not finding the information I needed. Tried different mic's different laptops, different connections USB/Mic input. Always trying to RASISE my mic levels. THEN I ran across your vide and it has SAVED me as I am running up against a deadline to submit some mp3s. Finally I know how to adjust my recordings AFTER recording. I was about to try again and make a new recording and now I was able to use a recording I already made and get exactly the implication I needed in my recording. . THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
been on this assignment for over a fucking HOUR trying to figure out what went wrong with my recording. THANK YOU SO MUCH🙏
Thanks! This vertical scale is so counterintuitive. I always thought +1 and -1 are the clipping limits, and was confused why sound seems clipped even below that. Now I realized that clipping occurs at +0.5 and -0.5. That is really game changer.
I have problem with newest version Audacity. I had set the mic volume to maximum but the level still too low.
Thanks bro for all the help you've provided through TH-cam Alone. I've learned so much thanks to you alone. I will forsure be in touch soon for so.e custom help.
Hey Arnoldo! I appreciate your kind words buddy. So glad I could help you so far. Reach out when you’re ready my friend🤙
Nice Video! Please can you make a video for AutoTune using Audacity?
Hi Dave! I definitely consider it🤙
Thank you. I was searching for the best playback levels on audacity. My audio playback usually hits between -6 and 0 and start sounding cracky yet people still complain that I'm quiet. I don't know what I need to do to make this better... Mind you, I have an African accent that is difficult to understand by some.
I would try using the loudness normalization RMS-20, then hard limit -3.2🤙
Another great lesson from the Audacity Master!!! So glad ur okay and CoVid didn't take you down. CU next time, Josh. 😎
Thanks Kate! You’re awesome doll! 😊❤️
Thank you so much! I had just watched a video on this subject that was way too technical. This was so helpful in explaining what the *result* is supposed to look like, and it gave me the confidence to make my first interface recording successfully.
Wonderful that should help me out some more. I find it kinda of odd that I use a USB Mic and when I record with Audacity I get random clicks even though I'm on a secluded place away from my computer. Then I use a different program than Audacity and I get either zero clicks or at most 3. The previous free EQ you gave out on one of your vids did help out plenty.
So glad I’ve been able to help you Gamma! 😊
Thank you! Perfect explanations 👍👍👍
Great tutorial, Josh. I'd like to ask about ventilation in a recording space. I find that electric fans (worse: air conditioning) output noise for the mic. But if you turn either of them off, I'm basically killing myself because of the heat. This is also why I tend to lower my mic volume level a bit. How do we deal with proper ventilation while still being able to capture sounds without background noise?
By the way, your lectures, especially in EQ, are more or less (in principle) applicable to other DAWs, right?
If the AC is coming through on the recordings you can do a few things. Wait until the AC kicks off (the room will still be cool and also quite). You can also try covering the AC vents with a thick blanket while recording. If the house is cool and you don’t want to worry about ac kicking on, go ahead and turn it off until you’re done 😊
I agree with what you are saying and get the level right seems the best way round it. Thanks for the video. I’ve heard people say you can just use limiters to fix clipping is this true?
If your microphone is clipping without the wave touching the roof or floor then absolutely not. Haha. The limiters will fix clipping that is occurring due to compression, over amplifying, loudness normalization or any other audio processing that makes a sound wave breach the roof or floor. But if your mic is clipping coming into the software the only real fix is to turn it down and re record 🤙
@@VoiceOverMaster thanks so much that makes sense. I usually use limiter after compression if I get red lines then normalise to get the actually volume where I want it with the beat. So sounds like that is ok. I will make to you lower gain when recording though if it happens. I usually find it’s a problem mid verse when trying to shout or scream or crescendo or something. Everyone says do multiple takes an stand further away. Can be hard though if it’s like a really quick rise because you are breaking up the flow but doing multiple takes. Anyway thanks for answer I appreciate that.
What's up brother another great video
Ayy appreciate you fam!💪🤙
Wonderful!
...now I just need to get a better mic...
:o)
Brother can you please make a video, how to mix and master a song using audacity? And how to edit podcast
My latest video has a solid audio processing chain for long form narration. Definitely check it out 🤙
Your videos are insanely helpful.
Thanks for the video! For adding the EQs should i add all 3 Ferndale eqs or just select one?
Ok I see. We can save each one as a preset🤦♀️ Thanks
Thanks for the great show and tell. I'm SO new to recording though I'm still having trouble. It seems that when I turn the gain knob past half way on my scarlet 2i4 it gets real trashy sounding. If I turn up the incoming mic volume to max on audacity it gives a similar high end clipping that you are talking about. If I make everything so that it comes in nice and clean it is SUPER quite and I have to modify the decibels after the recording. Maybe that is just the way it is, but since I'm so new my first thought is "this shouldn't be like this, I shouldn't have to manually alter this every recording, what do I need to set my standards to to achieve my end results after a simple effect > amplify option?
2023 and WHERE the heck is the audio volume slider toolbar?? its gone.
Can we do a zoom call and help me with my setup please. I got a new mic and I’m having issues with it.
sir, when i record a song of mine , when m singing the lows and mids , they are completely fine but the moment i hit higher notes it starts cliping ...and i try to use lesser gains then the lows of the songs gets pretty low
I wanna mix and master a song on audacity my main issues are mic levels output level and eq
That’s most people issues. Reach out if you’re interested in the EQ course. Good luck George!
How did you get the waves to show wild recording?
Hello buddy;
My microphone is too quite and when I boost level to Max +24db then mic pickup good but audio is very noisy. What is the solution plz help!
Should I buy a interface because I'm only using the sound from the audacity software
What’s up my dude!? You should not need and interface if you’re upgrading from a usb mic to an XLR mic. Hope that helps buddy!
GREAT! GREAT! GREAT!
skip the crapola 2:48
You said you were going to show how to reduce the gain in Audicity but you didn't. I'm using an AT2020USBX with no gain knob so what do I do in Audacity?
can't raise or lower my usb mic levels in audacity at all... it's really driving me crazy
For some reason i don't even have that "File/Edit/Select/View bar at the top screen. Not sure if its because i have thebfree version or if its because im using windows 10?
A very long intro that ruined the flow, please avoid that and get to the point ASAP. Thanks for the help, great help.
Thanks Bro
dude deadass made a 12 minute vid telling us not to be too quiet and especially not to be too loud lmao
I turn my gain to 11, because it's 1 louder than 10.
stupid app never fix my problem even autotune broken
Wishing you luck buddy
✌🏾♨️🙏🏾👍🏾
Too much fluff
Hello Josh, I've wanted to get into voiceover work also; I write and produce my own music, I've also released a few songs. But really would like to know how to get gigs in the voiceover industry. How do I contact you?
I can definitely help you. My email address is in the description of this video.
