Universal Audio Plugins Custom Preset Installation Guide
After your purchase, you will receive the preset files (as a single .zip file) via email or dropbox. Save the attached .zip file to your local computer and unzip the file and keep the contents in a safe place on your computer.
Next, you will open your DAW and open the corresponding plugin. The preset file will be opened from the plugin that it was created for. You can then retitle and save the setting in the same plugin so you can access it for future use.
Getting The Best From Your Preset
Your recording level is critical to get the intended sound from the plugin & preset. Recording levels higher or lower than the intended range will modify the tone and dynamics of your voice. You will receive the expected sound from your custom preset by adhering to the following recording level guide. Adjust the recording level so that your recording level averages between -18db and -10db on the peak meter. It would be best if you never peaked over -6db (on your peak meter). I illustrate this in a YouTube video.
What Is A Custom Preset And Why Do I Need One?
A custom processing preset for your voice-over is a series of plugins explicitly tuned for your voice, in your room, and on your microphone. If you want to compete in today's voice-over world, you must ensure that your demos and auditions are extraordinary. Voice-over artists at every experience level from all over the world are fighting to win work. However, if you don't have a professional sound, you will lose out to someone who does.
Custom voice-over processing presets can take your audio presentation quality to the level necessary to compete with the pros. Instead of taking it upon yourself to tweak the parameters like EQ, compression, DeEssing, and saturation to name a few, you can hire a professional voice-over audio engineer to create it for you. Once you have the custom preset on your system, you have "The Sound" every time you press the record button. The investment pays for itself with the money and time saved. Here are the top reasons why they are so popular:
- A custom processing preset lets you focus on your strengths, leaving more time for pitching your voice-over and less time stumbling with engineering.
- A custom processing preset gives you the confidence necessary to help you perform your best.
- A custom processing preset allows you to outshine the competition, win more auditions, and get more work.

Once you submit your voice for processing, you will be notified if your audio recording quality needs improvement or if it's ready for prime time. If your production quality needs improvement, you will be offered suggestions to help identify and resolve any issues before being asked to resubmit audio. On the other hand, if your audio recording quality is up to par, you will receive a sample of your custom-tuned processed sound to review for free.
