  • In this video you will learn the most effective ways of "ducking" the music for the voiceover. This is a great solution for podcasters who are looking to create the talk over effect or radio producers making ads and jingles. I go through a variety of methods. Let me know in the comments below which is your favourite!

    Great Mike. Please make a video on using a Reverb and delay effect using Send button. Also how can we EQ only the Reverb and not affecting any other effect on the vocal chain.

    • @MikeRussell
      @MikeRussell  2 года назад

      When you set up some echo, delay, reverb effects they allow you to EQ the effect.

      Don't worry, audio mixing can be complex at first, but with a little practice and guidance from tutorials, you'll be able to make your vocals stand out in no time! Keep experimenting and you'll get the hang of it! 😊

    I'm just lowering the volume on the background music track in audition and have fade in and outs, but mine is meant to be subtle/ambient, and I can see this technique would be useful for something more energetic.

    • @MikeRussell

      Try using essential sound ducking where you can adjust the duck amount and fade times

    Hey Mike! What to do when the music is louder than the voice? Do you increase the volume for the voice or reduce it for the music? Or do you normalise the voice first?

    • @MikeRussell
      @MikeRussell  Год назад +3

      I would suggesting use match loudness to even the music and voice and then use a side chain compressor to duck the music with the voice

Just the other day it was there and I used it. Today it has disappeared from where its usually located.

    Hi Mike
    When I use multi track to mix the dialogues (Mono files), i put limit for all the tracks on -12DB, But when I export the files to a .wav, the places that two tracks were on each other make's loud sound (more than -12DB) .
    Can you help me how to fix this problem please?

    • @MikeRussell
      @MikeRussell  2 года назад

      That would make perfect sense to me. Two tracks combining would be the combined levels of both tracks.
      If you don't want to exceed -12db I would suggest putting the hard limiter on the master track.

    Why set the side chain to MONO as opposed to STEREO? Does that make the music MONO?

    • @MikeRussell
      @MikeRussell  2 года назад

      The vocal recording is mono. Unless you're using a Blue Yeti or something like a 3dio mic your voice will be mono so all you need is a mono sidechain
