Noice! Easy, Simple and right to the point! LOVE IT!
Thank you, I appreciate it! That's what we try to do on this channel, simple and applicable tutorials, straight to the point that anyone can do immediately after :)
For all the people who don’t have the “equalization” option; use the one named filter curve then click on manage and finally select the option you need. It’s exactly the same.
Btw i upload music covers, in case i helped you, give it a shot;)
Thanks for the tip! Good luck with the covers! ;)
Thank you!!!! This helped a lot
Thank you
thanks a lot bro
saved my life
To anyone that can't find equalization anymore, it has the name "Filter Curve EQ" now
Excellent help, I've just got the gist of how Audacity works, but needed to know how to improve my voice-over, and you explained in a clear and simple way. Many thanks!
This saved my life! I'm making a course on Udemy and it was important to me to have the best quality possible.
Thank you!
That is absolutely fantastic, so happy to hear this! Good luck with it! :)
just havin a little problem i can not find the equalization thing on my audacity
Ye I don’t c it euther
It’s called filter curve
literally the best tutorial out there! If someone needs help just comment, I will help out :)
I'm fairly new to voice over work and am having a heck of a time figuring out the editing aspect of it. I have watched countless "experts" on UA-cam show me how to apply and adjust the Noise Reduction, Compressor, EQ, Limiter, etc. ALL of it pretty much sounded like crap. My actual voice acting is good, but my voice was not being captured properly. I have good mid-range (for now) equipment, sound booth, etc. It all came down to not getting the proper tutorials. This one video hit the mark! You have helped me more than ANY of the others. I can not thank you enough. Bless you
I have to say I am very happy to hear that! I'm more of a video expert, my knowledge in audio editing is not that great, I'm still learning a lot myself. But knowing some very basic things well can make a significant difference in your voiceovers. Best of luck with your voiceover work!
thank you so much the difference is VERY noticeable, this is going in my watch later playlist in case i forget how to do these steps
It makes all the difference indeed, definitely recommend it for all recordings!
*hears him say bass boost* Look at my pet bass and tell him he's great. #boosted.
Whaaaaat... took me a while to figure this one out haha #blessed
Excellent tutorial, it definitely sounds better in the finished clip.
It does indeed, I use it for all my voiceovers :)
Thank you for the great info!! My audio sounds great!
Thank you for these tips! Is there a way to set up Audacity to automatically implement these steps as a default, pre recording, so one won't need to do all this in post production each time?
I am a technophobe - but the difference is amaaaazing! Thank you...
That's great to hear. You just need to follow the steps really, don't even need to know what they do exactly, that's the beauty of this!
Wow! Thank you sooooo much for sharing this info!
Glad it was helpful!
BTW ,
for me Noise reduction will not work after I do the other effect on it ..
so what I did is :
1) Compressor
.
2)Equalization Bass & Treble
.
3) Normalize .
4) Here I do the Noise reduction part and I increased the " Noise Reduction (dB) to 18 "
works like charm
.
thanks again bro !
First of all, not all audio is the same, so the process of editing audio has to be flexible and adapted to each situation.
So if you found something that works for you, I'm happy to hear!
That being said - I would still strongly suggest that you try and do the noise reduction as the first step, that's when it is the most accurate. Otherwise, you will edit the noise too with compression, equalize, etc. and make it more difficult to remove later.
But again, if the final result is good and it works for you, that's all that matters!
@@VideoPlastyOfficial totally agreed :)
Hi, thank you for this tutorial.
It helps a lot. Maybe because I have the Blue Yeti too :D
Yes, Blue Yeti microphones are amazing! Mine's silver, but I'm thinking about buying the black one just because it looks cool haha!
Great, exactly what i needed, short, simple and to the point.
Glad it helped!
Super helpful , thanks very much
Video starts 2:12
thank you very much
Thank you Eduard. Really helpful tips!
Happy to help! It's probably my favourite tutorial, my "secret sauce" :)
Superb tutorial.
Thank you! Cheers!
Amazing
thank you so much
Damn, nice.. I'm not shy of myself anymore. Thank you very much.
thanks mate. short and to the point. well done.
Thanks! I love your username! :)
Thanks For Your Help Eduard!
Happy to help! :)
Thank you!
Welcome!
I loved it. ❤️ This is what I needed.
Happy to hear! ♥️
Bro thanks a lot holly dumplings my voice sounds like yugio
Very useful and simple! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Audio really changes a lot about your video to sound more professional.
I don't know what did it, but it just made my audio super quiet.
How do I record audio from this and then have OBS open and react to YT videos and everything be matched up ?
If ya find out please let me know. Thank you.
@@teapacket1539 youre going to have to get a video editing software and edit that yourself.
@@samonnathan2652 thank you
Man you are a life saver !
thanks a lot
Glad it helped!
Hi Eduard, I just downloaded Audacity, but I cannot find the Equalization tab. I have Echo and Fade in follows, but no equalization
I had the same issue, sounds like you downloaded version 4.3.3, uninstall that and download and install 4.3.2 instead, then you will match most tutorials on UA-cam
same here! i think ours may be an updated version
Indeed - Audacity released a new version and the Equalisation tab got moved or split into two. I have to check this new version and figure it out
@Marck Knight - you're absolutely right, I'm surprised it never crossed my mind. Thanks for the recommendation!
For those with newer version without Equalization:
manual.audacityteam.org/man/new_features_in_this_release.html#eq
Thanks! Yea, that's a shame they removed it. Need to have a look and see what the alternative is!
Can it use for song vocal?
Excellent video
Thank you very much! 👌🏼
@@VideoPlastyOfficial Welcome
thank you Eduard
Nice
This was helpful, ty. Currently doing voice overs for my lil' cartoon entitled "Adulterated Muh'fuckin' B.S." (A.M.B.S.).
Great Vid! Thanks a lot
THANKS FAM
My pleasure bro!
Thank you Eduard🤗
You're welcome, Miriam! 😊
Thanks for the wonderful tutorial! My audio sounds great Now!
Thanks Bro....
Sounded better good tutorial
Happy to hear! Pun not intended lol
sweet thanks for the help
sir goodmorning, is’t okay to use boya mic for beginners in doing voiceover in audacity? thanks
The first 3 steps work well but when I normalise, the volume levels drop really low and it doesn't sound good.
It must mean that somewhere on the audio track you have a part that peaks really high, as this shouldn't be happening. Try this:
- Normalize (as the last step)
- Hard Limit at -4dB (I don't remember exactly, but this could have been an external plugin you have to install - it's free)
- Normalize again
Let me know if this works!
Hey i am impressed with your video awesome very nice
Thank you!
Which one is the background music in your intro. Plz sir lemme know?
It's just a SFX file from AudioJungle.net for the logo animation
@@VideoPlastyOfficial Yes, but what is name of the music, what I will search on audio jungle. Plz let me know. I want that intro music.
Your a great man brother 👊
Thanks a lot bro!
Thanks!!!
You're welcome!
Excellent ... I already knew how to eliminate audio noise but no other processing ... do you also know how to remove reverberation and echo? .... anyway thanks.
I'm afraid not, sorry! I never ran into that problem before, I mostly record audio and voiceovers in a very controlled environment
Video: Use a super high quality microphone.
Proceeds to whip out the Blue Yeti, just an ok mic that's $80-100.
So what were you saying about high quality? My Audio-technica is LOL'ing right now. Other than that, great tutorial :O)
the equalization button is no were to be found on my audacity? did they remove it from this update?
Now it's called Filter Curve. So: "Effect Menu -> Filter Curve..."
@@alexradu1921 thank you ! =D
شكرا لك اخي
No idea what that is, but I guess thank you!
i dont have equalization under effects
Graphic EQ
I still have some static in the background but when I turn up the noise reduction it make it sound robotic
Well... it’s not magic :( you need to start with a good source file, in a quiet environment, where the background noise is only a subtle “hiss”. You source file also needs to be high quality .WAV uncompressed, rather than a compressed and low quality mp3
Does it work in wireless physical piano recording? Cause there are still background noise..
This is a voiceover tutorial. What are you trying to achieve on that piano recording?
@@VideoPlastyOfficial so it wouldn't have the background noise of the air and the environment and stuff
Hello, if someone could help i would really appreciate. So when i followed the tutorial the first time the test voiceover came out very well, but when i followed it again this time, the background noise would get louder after i used the compressor. If it helps im using a TC-777 mic. Thanks in advance
It's hard to diagnose just from that. Maybe you accidentally changed some settings. It's mostly trial and error, but play around with the Remove Noise step a few times until you get it right. You've done it once, you can do it again!
@@VideoPlastyOfficial Thanks for the reply. I went ahead and did the noise reduction step multiple times and it works great. Thanks for the tutorial :)
What if I’m recording in obs do I have to record these at the same time? Do I have to mute myself in obs and play the voice audio on audacity? I am really confused please help.
I've never used OBS, but I know it's a recording software, which I think people use for gameplay footage.
There would be two options:
1) RECOMMENDED - Record both in OBS and Audacity. You need the one in OBS to be able to synchronise it with the audio from Audacity, as you won't hit record at the exact same time. You edit the one in Audacity to make it sound cooler, then mute the original one in OBS.
2) Record just in OBS. Then export WAV from the video you made. Import into Audacity, do the audio editing, save again, then replace the audio on the timeline of your editor with the one that's edited and sounds nicer (delete/mute original audio track). They will match perfectly in length. Not recommended as you might lose some quality due to compression of original video recording in OBS (unless you can save audio as uncompressed). I would go with Option 1, but you are likely not going to notice any difference on either one
In OBS you can record your voice separately from the game noise
Here is a tutorial i found : ua-cam.com/video/ZdFeCaStTbw/v-deo.html
The only thing this did was amplify everything and didn't remove background noise. I'm not using the most professional mic ever but still...
Could be multiple factors. Hard to troubleshoot in YT comments. Play around with the background noise removal until you get it right. If you still can't after sampling a very good portion of silence of 3-4s (with BG noise only), then it could very well be the quality of the microphone.
This didnt help me because my microphone sucks. You are using a good microphone but my microphone makes a buzzing noise no matter what I do :(
Pls help
I have lots of weird clicks in my audio recordings. Does anyone else have this problem?

hehe 🐐

Thank you! ♥️
Yay
i need good quality Voice same to you
Fantastic! This is how you do it: good microphone + a little bit of editing in a free software like Audacity
1:25
WoW
The difference is pretty amazing, right?
@@VideoPlastyOfficial Yes, you are Right..👍
Nice. Thanks for that.
Now I've just done a 7 second test recording of a Spike Milligan poem and put it out to some Facebook Groups in two versions. One version is my original and the other is enhanced with your settings. I want to see if they can tell the difference. If you're interested the links are:
neillmackenzie.com/Test1.wav
neillmackenzie.com/Test2.wav
Can you tell the difference?
By the way, I use the Blue Yeti too. Can you provide your Audacity settings you for PRE--recordings too. Appreciated.
Hi Neil - that's great! I just listened with headphones and the difference is very obvious, v2 sounds much better!
Now, of course, there's no perfect "one size fits all" solution, so if you want even more out of it you can keep playing with the effects. For example, you can boost the bass and the treble a bit more by moving the line even higher when applying the effect to see how that sounds
Also, a bonus part that you can use is after all previous effects have been applied, you can use a Hard Limiter Effect at like -4dB, then do a Normalize again which should amplify the whole thing as much as possible without peaking and while keeping everything else constant, to bring out more richness out of it. Especially with a Blue Yeti.
As for the "prerecording settings" - I don't have anything like that, I just use the Blue Yeti on cardioid mode, open Audacity and do these simple post production steps
@@VideoPlastyOfficial That's great Eduard thanks for the extra information about the settings.
90% of the people who took part in my test said that #2 was better than #1. The rest couldn't tell the difference and nobody voted for #1. So it's clear that your settings work.
Thanks again for your input.
😀👌
I'm super happy to hear that Neill, glad I could help!
Of course, there's a lot more to post production for a voiceover if you wanna do things super professionally, but I tried to keep it as simple as possible for people to replicate on their own very fast and without having to learn much :)
i dont have the equalization option
I haven't had time to look for a solution, they changed it the latest Audacity update. You can read in the comments, people have found a solution to either a) install an older version OR b) find the equalization options elsewhere
Not seeing equilization not in my app
I should make a new tutorial. Audacity released a new update and it changed a few things around. There are some solutions in the comments, you can download an older version of Audacity, for example.
thanks dear its nice software ..............
Yes, Audacity is amazing, glad you found this helpful!
There is no equalization...
The option it's now called "Filter Curve"
i don't have Equalization how do i get it
same here dude
Oh wow, Audacity just removed Equalization from the menu and split it to something else as two separate menus. I'll have to investigate this a bit
@@VideoPlastyOfficial Great Video and this was my problem as well. Check Filter curve I believe its that now.
I really can't hear any difference. But maybe that's just me...
So girls should do treble boost only ?!
I think so, yes. But I would try both and go with whichever one you prefer. At the end of the way, it's a matter of preference :)
Omg thank u so much 🙏
Literally no difference for me :D I have hyperx cloud 2 microphones. Also, my sound is a little bit girly :D 19 yo*
That's... impossible. Make sure you add the Equalization (Graph EQ in newer version) with Bass Boss and Trebble Boost :p
My question is, did you fix your voice for this video? 🤔
Haha, that's a good question. I had to check cause I forgot. The answer is yes, I have!
no difference same o same
Try with headphones ;)
Don't use a blue yeti
Not sure if that's a statement or you're telling me not to use a Blue Yeti?
@@VideoPlastyOfficial Well, It's just a 2 times more expensive version of the Blue Snowball in my opinion.
@@EnderElectrics Hey, I'm no audio engineer myself, but I'm sure that if the same company sells a microphone more expensive, it's likely technically better.
That being said, it depends what you use it for. For homemade UA-cam videos, you won't ever be able to tell the difference between the two, unless you're like a sound engineer and look at the files probably.
But regardless, I've heard great things about the Snowball, so if you have that then it's great!
@@VideoPlastyOfficial Alright. I googled something along the lines of "Why you shouldn't use the Blue Yeti", and this is what I found. Don't know if it's a good video, but it might say something similar to my argument. You don't need to watch it but it might give you a better feel for what I mean. ua-cam.com/video/qa9SbQWyex0/v-deo.html
@@VideoPlastyOfficial But hey, still love the tips! You're making great content and I don't want you to think I'm here JUST to tell you I don't like the particular microphone you're using.
thank you very much
Glad it helped!
Nice
Thanks
why i dont have equalization
It's changed now in the new version, it's called Graphic EQ, use the presets under "Manage"
