Processing A Female Voice-Over Recorded With The SHURE SM27 Microphone

benefits of a custom preset May 05, 2023

In this video, I work on a project from my client Marisa Urtado, a young voice-over artist focusing on animation and video game work. First, I review why a proper recording level is critical for sound quality. Then, I will walk you through the plugin preset I've created for Marisa using the Waves Scheps Omni Channel and the F6 Floating Band Dynamic EQ. Next, I compare the unprocessed and processed sounds with each plugin. Finally, meet Marisa and discuss her voice. She shares how she finds voice-over work on Twitter.
