(Awesome video btw, helped me so much)
You're the student in class whose notes everyone copies. Thanks for that cheat sheet.
thanks man, i've always came to this video to fix my audio and spent 10 mins scrolling through, you're a life saver!
@@mostunimportantman why don't you just make a preset that way you don't have to come back to the video? just a tip :)
@@jaycanon5957 wow there's a way to do that?? can you teach me if you dont mind? 😂
This should be pinned. I gave you a thumbs up so this can stay at the top.
Just a quick heads up: you can also set in and out points for a single clip on your timeline by tapping X with the clip selected.
Arhan Sett whhhaaattt?!? Dude, this is awesome and something I didn’t know. Thank you for dropping this comment. You rock, Arjhan. 👊🏼
@@KevinFremon lest we forget the CLEAR IN AND OUT key, defaulted at ctrl+shift+X
Itai Carmeli oh yeah!! Good call.
FUCKIN JESUS MAN U SAVED ME YEARS OF MY LIFE!
haha yeah I found that out accidentally !
Just what I was looking for, thanks! Some of our voice over's sounded really flat. This has helped a lot, so thanks! Appreciate you taking the time to make this video =)
I am so freaking thankful!

THANK YOU! I wish every tutorial had a timestamp list like this to save time!
Great! Now can someone combine all of those and make a pre-set called Audio Correction" then upload it to the Adobe Cloud? Thanksssss!
Thanks!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I've applied these edits to my video, and it sounds much better! This explanation is awesome!
MikeGeorge360 right on Mike! Really glad it was helpful and worked for you. 👊🏼
your forehead tho 🤭
Awesome vid man! Thanks! Its very useful
This actually did make a very noticeable improvement for me. Thank you so much!
This video saved my ass on a big project with some really hollow sounding audio- I’ve been stressing the last few days trying different effects to fix it, so glad I found this tutorial!
Jon Secord awesome! Sol glad to hear that this helped. Thanks for taking the time to drop a comment and let me know. 👊🏼
@@KevinFremon Same! This video saved bad mic placement for a client project! Thanks Kevin!
Demo Bailey awesome! So glad it helped you out with the project. Thanks for letting me know.
Thank you so much Kevin! This helped a lot.
Thanks man, you've been a huge help! Great content, you get straight to the point, it's all very practical yet amusing to watch. Thanks!
That loop tip is everything! :)
Thank you so much. When I recorded audio for some interviews, you could barley hear them and I got worried, but when I tested this out it sounded so much better. You helped saved the project.
Alexandra Raipe you’re very welcome. Glad it helped save the interview. Thank for letting me know.
I can’t thank you enough for this video, freaking fantastic!!
This truly helped A LOT.
Thank you so much!
I was searching for tips and saw the title and like ok let's check it out, I was expecting 2m subs and a lot of views and I'm shocked with the 2k subs. Dude you deserve more, I like the energy you've got, keep it up 🔥, I'm getting your IG
Ahmed Fadhel thanks, Ahmed. I really appreciate that and take it as a compliment. Definitely motivating to keep creating content. 👊🏼
I haven't even finished watching the video but I already appreciate it so much! Thank you Kevin!
Gaming About Life your welcome! Glad the video helped you make your audio sound awesome. 👊🏼
Kevin Fremon sooooo good! It's like I had a professional mic hahaha
Gaming About Life nice!!! That’s awesome!
Thank you soooo much for this tutorial! Your an absolute life saver. I lost our original audio from the mixer and had to find a way to work with our camera audio and this really did the trick! Much Appreciated!!!
I'm loving your style dude! Thank you for the info!
Poppa Boí thank you! I appreciate that. And you’re welcome. Glad the video helped.
Reverb was already 0 on the second effect. I also like the denoiser effect, its good for noise reductions for indoor audio, you know these little background noises that come in if you aren't recording in a sound proof studio.
trouvaille - by Aamir dude, great additional tips. Thanks for taking the time to share these. 👊🏼
I rarely comment but you saved my life here
Late comment but 2nding this! Denoise is my fav effect and really helps when recording indoor audio! This tutorial is great but adding denoise really takes my audio step up a notch - especially if you get a ton of echo in your recording area. My audio is sounding great adding these 5 effects!
Denoise effect is the GOAT for a quick audio improvement.
hey Kevin Fremon ...
i came for a premiere tutorial ...i did learn a couple of tricks from your video.
1 ) how to loop a section ....didn't know where this little loop button is located .
2) how to make your sound not better just louder ...
i am a composer and sound engineer ... i can tell you that you make the sound louder not cleaner .... all the low end you push up introduces rumble and dirt .... the high end you are pushing makes your ess piercing ... in audio as well as in video to my knowledge it all starts with the source ... record a with good microphone in good environment you will get good sound also in video shoot with good lighting and good camera and you are not gonna need wired tricks like this ...
but !!!!! i wanted to tell you how to really make you voice sound clearer
don't boost the lows as you did ... instead cut it until you hear your voice starting to get thin , then back of a few Hertz from that point... buy cutting the lows you will hear the high frequency much better , and if you want to give a bass boost to your voice usually around 100-400 hz is the right frequency to give some "bite" . for the highs if it feel's like the voice is too "dark and muffled" you can give a small boost above 5 Khz but some times it will bring the ess so you would need to apply a deesser that basically is a compressor that compresser only the high frequencies .
give this method a try and let me know what you think ...
Avi Lutinger thank you so mug for these tips! I really appreciate it. Clearly, Im just getting into becoming better at audio and this is really helpful. You rock!
@@KevinFremon HI man great vid, how do i repair a few blown highlights in audio i have good software, so i hope you can help :)
Chris Walzak thanks man!! Audio that’s blown out is really hard to recover to be honest so I’m not sure where to guide you. Best thing you can do is bring down the DB on that audio clip and bite the bullet. I’ve done that a few times. Now, I just make sure that I’m recording at a much lower level. Much easier to make it louder with out quality loss than the other way. Good luck man 👊🏼
Not everyone has good microphone Dude! This video is generally crispy helpful for all, and speak english dude.
Pilipinas Landscaped right on! Glad you found it helpful. And you’re right... not everyone does. Thanks for taking the time to drop a comment:
I love the energy and passion brothe!
Thank u for this tutorial, in tried several tutorials but this one gave me the best audio!
Just a quick tip: if you're in Multiband Compressor, you can use the Limiter Margin in the same way as the Hard Limiter. Saves you the use of the last effect :)
Brent Panem awesome tip! Thanks for posting it. 👊🏼
you're doing an audio tutuorial, remove the background music jees
Mr Waffle yo!! Thanks for the feedback: you’re totally right. 👊🏼
@@KevinFremon Thanks good Tutorial tho!
@@MrWaffleOfficial A more important factor is how the audio is recorded - it should be through software providing the audio directly, rather than through laptop speakers and a laptop mic - that's a double degradation. I don't mind the music as much. You could duck the music at the points where you want the audio to shine, but that's secondary to getting good audio directly to the video.
You may have solved this already, Kevin, but something like Rogue Amoeba's Audio Hijack may do the trick. rogueamoeba.com/audiohijack/
@@ataylortca To-TA-LLY! Ugh...
Thank you! This video was very helpful. I had to tweak some audio settings and now it sounds amazing.
Thank you for this. I learned lots from it. What I was actually looking for is compensating for a phasing effect caused by speaking from behind the inbuilt mic and the sound being mixed with bounce back off a hard surface plus the voice coming from behind too. There's like a fractional delay between the two voice sources, even though it's one speaker. If you get my drift. I think it might be called phase distortion.
Learned a lot, thanks! One suggestion would be to put the final clips in the video itself, rather than just playing it through the speakers, so we get a much better idea of what it sounds like without the added step of your speakers. Also, if you do something like this in the future (with color grading, effects, ect), I'd use the exact same clip, duplicated. Removes other variables that way.
As an audio engineer I gotta say that the audio processing wasn’t perfect but it’s so nice to know that you have all the tools you need to process audio in premiere without using a different program, thank you for showing the plugins!
Can you share the mis-steps?
@@videocentric im not sure what alex was referring to. But as a producer myself id personally not raise the low frequencies of a voice neither with an EQ or multiband compresser. Id probably roll off some of those depending on the mic used and recording. Audio processing is very dependent on how the original recording is you want to edit so its kinda hard to give a guideline since it depends on the audio. Overall id say use an EQ to roll of the frequencies untill like 80-100Hz, if you want some detailed guidance on this try looking up a vocal EQ frequency chart (google it). Other than that use a compressor if you got very quiet parts in your audio recording, if you're not sure how to set one up and you got a very short recording you can even just do this by dragging the volume up and down. Hope that helped a bit ;)
super useful, thank you Kevin!
Really great tutorial, thanks for sharing!!!
I Apply all to my audio except that mastering one, Looks like it gives the reverb tool which is found in the Audio Clip type side menu so will give it a go.
However, thought i'd point out something as this changed my life haha. In the Audio workspace (not Colour which for some reason you did an Audio tutorial in lol), toggle the small arrow pointing right at the top left of all tracks. This will drop down a bank of Effect Sends, like you'd get in a DAW. Now you can apply these effects to the entire Audio Track, and not to every individual Audio Clip! Speeds up editing 10x
cam shand So glad this helped you out, Cam. Thanks for dropping a comment to let me know. Also, thanks for the tip about the Audio mode and how to add the effects to the entire track. I actually learned that after creating this tutorial but appreciate the reminder.
@@KevinFremon all good, figured it'd save you a stack of time if you didnt know, however seems the videos pretty old so you obviously have since (good old RUclips algorithm reserving old content). Thank anyway :)!
After watching your amazing tutorial... i just saw your subs😥 You deserve MILLIONS of subscribers... Energy Level is Extremely high🤩 You gotta Subscriber and Fan too❤️
Wishes are always with uhhh...
Rohit BakchuSaaki thank you so much for the kind words and encouragement Rohit. I appreciate that man. Really means a lot. 👊🏼
Lauren Regan thanks so much Lauren! Glad it saved you time. Thanks for letting me know. 🙏🏼
I agree! He definitely deserves more subscribers!!! 😭
Thanks a lot for making this video, not only did it help me with my audio but what I really appreciate is learning to do the looping. Saves a lot of time and wrist movement!! Thanks again Kevin.
Ville Jokinen your very welcome! Yeah, that loop feature is a life saver. Glad the video helped. Thanks so much for dropping a comment to let me know. 👊🏼
Thank you Mr. Fremon! You have some very helpful content!
7:47 *-3 dB?*
I did some tests. And *-6 dB* sounds a lot better on mobile devices. Going louder than -6 tend to distort more.
I usually apply the Hard Limiter on the Master Track in the Track mixer, by the way.
Also, I shorten the release time a lot to avoid that pumping effect.
But er... great tips though! I should use the parametric EQ more 😇
Yh, that's true.... Nice optimization
Am I the only one who thinks Kevin looks like jack Snyder🤔 ....nice tutorial by the way.
Yes indeed 😁
*zack snyder
I immediately thought he was going for the Cardone look.
Thank you a lot for your tips. Hope i can get better sound from now on
You're very welcome! Thanks for dropping a comment.
This was very helpful. Thank you so much Kevin!
Happy to hear it helped out.
I was sure the unexpected comic payoff of the video was that, midway, the tinny sound of his main narration was suddenly going to get warmer and deeper...
But don't forget to cut everything about 50-100hz!! 🔥
Dentro Music yeah! You’re totally right. Good call. 👊🏼
@@KevinFremon 💪🏼
how does that work?
Yh really, how does that work?
Thanks again Kevin by the way, your tutorial might have just saved a life!
This is incredible advice - thank you so much!!
Great job brotha ....THANK YOU !
I'll give a million dollars to anyone who can tell me why he doesn't have 1M subs yet? Thank you for this God bless you brother!
Righteous Road man, you rock!! Thanks for the great compliment. I appreciate it man. 🙏🏼
Wow, this really helped me in one take!! Thank you!! AS a complete beginner fluffling around was able to do something that worked!!

Thanks dude. I just crushed the like button Man. Really helpful
omg THIS! THANK YOU. I love how easy this is to follow from a non-audio pro lol. I have a mic on my camera, but I still felt my audio was "off" in some way I couldn't quite put my finger on. this video made me realize that it was missing bass!!! thank you a million times over.
So glad this was helpful and made your audio sound way better. Thanks for dropping a comment to let me know.
