From my last experience with the audio, I've chosen to use my earphones themselves, instead of the mic of the synthesizer, since it wasn't appropriate. So I tried recording the audio with my mic plugged in my pc directly and it was so low that I could barely hear myself, so I plugged it in my phone itself and recorded it, then I started working on it.




This is the unedited audio, and by the way, you may notice how you can barely see the waveforms of the previous audio I've recorded with my earphones plugged directly into the pc.


And as I mentioned in the previous posts, I was still exploring other tonations and rhythms with my voice, this one was exaggerated a bit, but it was easier for me to do it since it matches with my own voice and I think it creates a sort of cartoon effect which matches my dark theme as well.




This is another tryout I did, yeah it's fast, but actually, I wanted to post this one mostly because of the different tone I took to read it and not because of the speed, the speed was actually a mistake of mine, anyway, I've rejected this one tho, I just thought it was worth sharing and it was actually made using the mic of my phone directly, and not using earphones.




This is the edited version of the voice over, well there was no lip sound, nor throat sound or breathing sounds, unlike with the mic of the synthesizer, so I didn't had to apply the dynamic vocal processing on it, instead, there was a lot of noise on this record.


I did my best to remove as much noise as I could;

-Starting off with this noise reduction plug in which samples and takes away the noise





-Adding a gate, hoping it will remove additional noise.



Using an EQ, removing all the middle frequencies, where most noise come from, and balancing out the high and low frequencies as well.



Finishing off with a bit of reverb to make the voice sound more normal, cuz, it wil tend to have a robotic feel to it while removing the noises.


Well of course a compressor and a limiter is needed to boost up the voice and make it more easy to hear.
