This time out on the audio journey we’re producing a basic stutter effect. I’ll show you how to get the basic stutter and a glitch effect too. This can be done both destructively in the wave form or non destructively in the multi-track and takes virtually no time at all […]
Audio Journey
Part 24 of the Audio journey focuses on distortion for production. Listen to radio station imaging and you’ll often hear distortion in the production. This hasn’t happened because the voice over was careless and over modulated while recording, nor because the producer overcooked the levels in production. Distortion can be […]
This time on the audio journey we look at distortion or clipping. Distortion is when the audio goes above the maximum ceiling of 0db and will sound horrible. There are two different kinds of distortion, analogue and digital. First we’ll deal with analogue. Analogue distortion most commonly occurs at source […]
As we created a cinema trailer “butch” voice this time we’re looking at creating the opposite and making your voice sound like a chipmunk. We use EQ and the pitch shifter to create the effect before once again adding reverb to finish off the production. Remember once again I’d recommend […]
Following from the EQ double part this time it’s a bit of fun using different effects to turn an ordinary voiceover into a cinema trailer effect within 5 minutes! We look at pitch shifting the voice, adding modulation and finally reverb to finish off the production. As we’ve discussed previously […]
Last time we looked at using EQ to make your voice sound better and this time we take EQ one step further and look at EQ as a production effect. EQ can be used to make your voice sound crisp for radio imaging, to make your voice sound like a […]
This episode of the audio journey is the first of a two part on EQ or equalisation. Equalisation is “tuning” of audio to make it sound better. Think of a traditional equaliser as being a series of volume controls but each volume control only affects a certain frequency within the […]
Reverb is a very tight echo type sound that is the persistence of audio after it is produced. Listen carefully to a lot of radio sweepers and you’ll hear they are laden with reverb to give a good sound. Reverb can add a polish to your production but in addition […]
In this episode of the audio journey we build our second multitrack session which you can use in Adobe Audition to speed up your workflow. This time we build a template for Podcasters to use. We create tracks for the hosts, a guest, a podcast intro and outro track and […]
In this episode of the audio journey we build our first multitrack session which you can use in Adobe Audition to speed up your workflow. In this episode we create a .sesx file which you can use to produce commercials, radio imaging, trailers etc. We start by creating a bus […]
