I have been searching for audio help for a while. I've tried Audition and other channels (that really just want to sell you stuff). This was the best that my voice overs have ever sounded. Many thanks.
Very well explained, thanks for this..always struggled with this because I mixed audio in Logic because I'm a lot familiar with it but this is a big time saver! Keep up!
this video is the best thing that happened in my amateur video editing life! I watched it a year ago, saved to favs, and now I re-watched it again several times! Thanks a lot! Now I'm moving to filmora, really hope I'll figure out how to do it there
Hi tutvid! I'm a student from Philippines who loves to edit things especially pictures and I just recently started to try and do some video editing for my classmates. My first issue was the audio, there's just so many background noise and I didn't know what to do with it. Luckily I found this video and it gave me great results on my project. Thnak you so much tutvid!! I loved and liked your video! +1 sub. Kudos for more vids!
Mannn this helped so much!! I film further away from my mic then I'd like, and this really helps me make it sound better. I'll have to keep going back to this video for reference! I really appreciate you taking the time to explain this in detail, but using lingo we can understand. Thanks!!
Just wanted to say thank you so much for this! I have been bouncing around between different techies and tutorials, and this also helps me understand why we're making these changes.
Awesome video, i use RODE wireless, i get lot os hiss even in closed room , i used this settings, now audio quality increased 70%. Thumbs up from India
Oh my god this is beautiful. I knew zero about audio before this. You explain it very well, and you have improved the quality of my work from 'dirt' -> 'pretty ok' all at once.
I shot a documentary the audio I recorded was good [ On a H5 ] but I picked up some background noise is some parts. Audio editing is not my specialty . Thanks for the lesson I can now dive in and fix things.... you have a great way of presenting and taking the fear factor away . cheers jamie
Thanks so much man. I just started my channel and podcast. I got adobe audition and premiere pro to help with production. Still learning the ins and outs but you really helped thanks.

I really appreciated the lenght and depth of the talking, but always want to reference this video later on so I appreciate this comment.
thanks bro, I use this vid/your comment every time. I'm just going to follow your advice and make this a preset.
Not all heroes...
Screenshot. Lol
FYI I love ya
Excellent Video -
0:00 - Introduction
1:29 - DB monitor meter - make sure your audio is consistent with other videos around -3
db
2:26 - Right Click > Audio Gain
3:05 - Denoiser
3:47 - Compressor - Makes the quieter parts louder - gives radio voice - don't go
overboard
4:41 - Dynamics Preset Effects - leave at soft compression - use "-30 db for the
threshold, 4.5 for the ratio"
6:18 - Dynamics Preset Effects - Makeup = 12db
7:31 - Mastering: Effects > Mastering, click edit, preset = subtle clarity, click
low shelf enable, high shelf enable
8:02 - Mastering: pull the high shelf up to give top end sharp sound effect
8:32 - Add bass or treble > Effects - trebble = 7 db
9:23 - Saving a preset, click each effect, right click, save as preset, type = scale,
preset name = AUDIO (OR VIDEO FOR VISUALS FOR ORGANIZATION). This will now be
under preset folder under effects
10:26 - Selecting multiple clips to apply the preset to after applying to only one
11:04 - Conclusion
Awesome
I paused as you went along and did the steps myself and that helped a TON.
There are many complicated ways to make sound better. But you made it easy.
Thank you.
The comnt section is very positive and downright encouraging! Love it!
Im in 2021 and i just tested this with hella background noise and wow this does miracles thx a lot man
