Improve Voice with Compressor, EQ & Limiter in FCPX
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 мар 2020
- I will cover how to improve your voice in Final Cut Pro X by using compressor, EQ and the Limiter. If you have any secrets to improving audio let me know in the comments below.
This video is geared towards the beginner learning to improve audio.
I am using a Shure SM57, and Native Instruments integrated amp, into OBS on a MAC.
You should really use a good set of headphones to edit audio.
This is the BEST video I have seen on sound for FCPX. Thank you!!!
Great, glad it was helpful
Finally I found a video with real applicable information that I am able to adapt to my needs for YT.
Thank you.
John, this was extremely helpful. You are an excellent teacher. I just wish that I could have heard you while you were adjusting the EQ. Thanks again. I'm looking forward to more videos.
Best I've seen so far on the subject. Really helpful. Now you got another subscriber :) Many thanks!
This was by far the best video on the subject that I've seen so far. I've always struggled with my audio files, especially managing clipping audio, which I ended up manually adjusting with keyframes. I can't wait to try this out. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful. Pretty much why i made it.
See the comment below? Ditto brother. Great explanation. You have helped immensely. You got a new sub here. Thanks a million.
John This is an excellent video on audio sweetening one of the best I have seen on RUclips. And I have seen a lot.
Great tutorial covering the overall goal as well as what each "dial" of the compressor, EQ and limiter do.
This is an absolutely wonderful tutorial 🤩 Sending big like 👍 Subscribed ⭐
Very good, I understood new concepts today. Thank you!
This is a very helpful video. Thank you for posting.
Thank you very much for this tutorial. It helped me a lot to improve my audio!
Great tutorial and great explanation! Thank you!
This was crazy helpful, thanks a lot!
I've been watching maybe 5 tutorials to improve the audio for my tutorials, but they all didn't really explain WHY you set all those things and what they do.
Glad it helped! I don't do a lot of FCPX videos but I thought it would be helpful. I had the same issue.
This is a very thorough and useful video. Thank you!
Excellent tutorial thanks
Thank you so much for making this tutorial.
Wow. Thank you so much. My voice needs this😎
You're welcome 😊
Really good video, thank you!
Thanks, very helpful and comprehensive (hope the mouse calms down in the future).
Nice video. Well done!
wow this was super helpful! thank you!
Great tutorial on the plugins! Thank you
Glad you like them!
Great video
Super helpful. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
amazing!!! finally i understand! thank you!
Glad it helped!
Thank you só much for this in depth explanation. Finally i have a notion what the hell i’m doing ;-))
Great video very helpful
Thank you! Great info.
You're welcome!
Thanks that was really helpful
Hi there John!
You just opened a new door for me.
There is a lot to take in (for the uninitiated), a lot of new terminology (Sorry for my english)
You explain well, should only look a few times at your totorial.
Thanks
Very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent tutorial. Great explanation and work process. A must for any FCPX users looking to edit audio. This has given me the insights into compressor and limiter I was looking for.
Do you have any tips on how to soften wind using EQ?
Thanks, the best way to soften wind is to not get wind noise. Good audio is key. However, I understand sometimes there is nothing you can do. You can try a low pass removal. You will need to adjust the frequency to find out what works best. If you have other low frequencies in your audio than this might not work.
very good tutorial I have been ever watched,nice deep explanation and have a question that if I want to do mixing and mastering here in final cut pro x then can release my audio music.or this is only for video
Kulwinder Dhanoa you could but most would use Logic for Audio.
thank you so much bro
Always welcome
This is what I've been looking for. Thanks!
btw, can you do a video on cleaning up hissing noise (such as light fan noise, etc..)
Jonathan T give me a bit and will

Clearly you know how to teach. So appreciate your flow and layering of detail. I like your cursor to draw my attention quickly to what you are talking about, referring to. Very helpful. How do you change your cursor to be like that?
Keto Naturopath yeah i use it in school because students had a hard time following the regular one. It is an app on the apple app store. The Pointer is called PinPoint Pro
@@Jcwphoto Thank you!
Hi John. I really enjoyed your video. I am a complete novice when it comes to audio editing and your video is by far the best I have watched. It was clearly explained with excellent delivery. Well done and thank you. I have a question if I may. If I understand correctly, the compressor reduces the dynamic range of the audio file to make the sound more even. The limiter, on the other hand, limits the maximum level. Based on this understanding, I was a little surprised when you used the limiter to raised the minimum as well. Isn’t that what the compressor does? I am a little confused on that point. Thanks again and be well.
You are correct. I think after I used the equalizer the entire volume was still slightly low. I use a gain of 1.5 today in the limiter to slightly raise the volume. This could be done in the compressor as well.
Great video!! I've just finished my first ever youtube/final cut pro project. It's a 1.5 hour vlog. From watching this video I can only see myself really using the compressor and limiter. But the limiter seems to be able to do what the compressor does mostly, in terms of boosting the quiet parts so would that alone be sufficient? I've also got external music tracks in the video. I assume I should apply a limiter etc to those too? Sorry for the noobie questions! Any advice would be appreciated!! :D
You are correct. The limiter will keep audio from clipping. However, it is hard to be specific because it depends on how loud you want the music. I think you get it though
also can I done my vocal with rode nt 500 with interface in final cut pro for my audio track and how sound should be same as in other software or any difference?
You can do it but I don’t know if there is a difference. I don’t use logic and don’t mix music.
That was an excellent rundown of those effects. I'm just curious though, why you use the separate limiter effect rather than let the compressor do it for you? Seems like they are applying the exact same controls.
Correct you could use the other tool to use the limiter. I like the separate controls if I need to change something. I think that that limiter works better. Not a great answer. Either way you will have nice results.
I still miss the old FCPX interface
Better than the new ACR.
Do you have a favorite third-party compressor plugin that doesn't crash FCPX? I love the Focusrite red plugging but they bring FCP to it's knees. Thanks.
Not really because it depends on a variety of factors. Then you can have 10 people, and they all like something a bit different. I even change what i line every so often.
Hi John would you please do a video on the final mix down of voice over, sync sound, effects and music? There are some but all the ones I have come across just skip over areas such as balancing the levels and what levels tracks should be as a start.
for sync sound do you mean a syncing a video with audio and then a separate audio recording to use the better audio sound. Do you mean adding music to a video or editing music audio? Specifics are helpful.
@@Jcwphoto Hi John thanks for replying. What I meant was having say three or four separate track with a video. For example a music, sync fx's and voice over then doing a mix down of those tracks into a final mixed master. The problem I think many people have and you come across it many, many times on RUclips (and often from people who should know better) is the music maybe too high or you cannot hear the effects due to the levels of each track competing against each other. The video that are on RUclips tend to explain the theory and not the practical job of doing the mix and hear how it sounds if wrong and right.
Ok, I it might be a bit but I will work into it.
@@Jcwphoto Thanks John, I do understand especially as I know what goes into making videos.
Thank you for taking time to explain this. Question, my timeline audio clip levels are in the red after adjusting with the audio effects, but my FCPX audio meter is nowhere close to clipping. It sounds good to my ear, no real auditory distortion that I can make out and the dialogue is now hitting -4, -3 on the FCPX audio meter. If I go back in the effects and adjust to get out of the red within the clips, the output goes down to -12 on the FCPX audio meter... super quiet. Which meter do I trust? Does anybody have any thoughts? Cheers!
Either way is fine. What r you outputting to. Just don’t go over 0. R i using headphones
@@Jcwphoto Yes using headphones. I did more research and found out FCPX does some sort of an automatic 6db difference in the sound level? I didn't really get it but it was concluded that when making an audio clip Dual Mono, to select Dialogue under the Pan Mode menu in the same inspector window with an Amount of 50.0 to mitigate this issue and disparity in level meters within timeline audio clips and the main audio meter. I also discovered that after selecting a compressor effect, if I select a limiter effect, it stacks the limiter UNDER the compressor in the inspector. By moving the limiter ON TOP of the compressor in the inspector everything worked a lot better. Thanks again for your video. Helped me to really understand these concepts and now with the Dual Mono pan mode trick on timeline audio clips, audio editing is a breeze! Happy Thanksgiving!
Where did you find the deep breath filter?

Mercy;)
If I use the internal microphone on my iPhone 10, and a rohde vid micro on my mirrorless camera... are those mics stereo or dual mono?
also... I may get a Shure mic (maybe MV88) for my iPhone 10 (iPhone 12 pro max - if I ever get one) is that stereo or dual mono?
Probably stereo on both
@@Jcwphoto Thanks.
I recorded a band playing live, but how can I make the music sound better on final cut pro any tips?
I would need more info. Why or what does not sound good, what did you record it on, were the levels good or was it clipping etc.
The EQ part… is this something I can save for all my audio files or something you need to do for each clip? My mic will basically be in the same location. Great video by the way. I sound so much better because of this!
You can save for your voice. Someone else might need different settings. I use a save version for all my voice files
@@Jcwphoto I learned how after. Frigging amazing. This is a game changer.
Hey!
Actually, I have a question for you,
-How would you describe the process to me if, for example, I go out into the woods and record the birds and then want to "clean up" the audio image and then save the file for later use in later movies?
Thanks again for your toterial.
Kind of hard to answer that question. If you are dealing with just audio, it would depend on the type of mic you used and what you are trying to achieve. Really, I would use logic, audition or another audio program for that rather than FCPX.

Okey, thanks.
hi just wondering can you apply this with music eq as well?
I would say yes, but I am not a music editor. They might use the same filters but slightly different. Music editors would also use Logic Pro for audio not fcpx.
@@Jcwphoto thank you
This video is u record without d compressor... how if u want to record ur voice over with a compressor??
I am not sure what you are asking. I am using compressor.
Debreath audio link please!

@@Jcwphoto Funny. I bought it! And just had my $$$ refunded. It doesn't work with M1 Macs!
@@PhotowalksTV i am sure they will have a working version soon. Especially when other macs come out
none tackles poor noisy audio with an echo.. the before audio was still good
