    Hearing you misspeak makes me feel so much better. I want to do audiobook narration, but I tend to read faster than my brain can comprehend. So knowing I can fix where I say something incorrectly easily makes me feel so much better.

    The sound of your video and the sound in audicity, they sound differently I don't know why??

  • @KrabiAdventure
    @KrabiAdventure Рік тому

    Wait... does ACX require that there be NO BREATH SOUNDS? I'd have to comb through 8 hours of voice to find 6500 instances of breath sound to fix before submitting to acx? Isn't there a plugin or something - anything - that can fix this without spending hours and days on this?

    I thought it was the economic cycle that was depressed and suffering from anxiety. If and when the Dali Lama was writing he was deeply depressed and suffering from anxiety...hehe Joking. There is no medical diagnosis for bad economics, bad banking etc...and economic slump.

    Thank you for making this video. I am very much looking forward to trying out these Punch Copy and Punch Paste plugins. I was actually thinking of getting them anyway through searching today, so this was good to be able to see them in action. For anyone who is willing to take the extra time for a way to more accurately see the breaths, you can also go to a track, the little black-triangle drop-down and select Spectrogram. Once you use it enough, it's actually easy to spot the breaths, in my opinion. There is Multi-View too (that will show both at the same time on the track), but I stick between alternating between Waveform and Spectrogram, depending on what I need. Another helpful mouth noise tool is the De-Clicker plugin, fyi to other comment readers.

    Something that can help you visually identify breaths which don’t show up on the waveform: Click on the track name, and select “both” for the spectral/waveform display. Breaths show up as light blue on the spectral display, and clicks show up as bright red/white.

    Especially the part with the punch copy/paste plugin helped me a lot! - Since I´ve got a lack of lung capacity (I´m also not able to inrease the capacity with training), I need to take deep and audible breaths in between my sentences - it always annoyed the heck out of me, when I´m reading the scripts for my videos... Today, I finally had the first recording, which passed every ACX-Check! Thank you!

    • @LeSaff
      @LeSaff 2 роки тому

      An other way to get the same result: select the breathing, go to noise reduction, take that sample, and then adjust the settings to reduce/remove it but keeping your recording sounding natural
