Voice Over Training With Terry Daniels.

Im back from Logistics Training with the Army at Ft. Lee. I am signed up to complete some VO training and cut a demo. Im looking forward to the process. I was asked to do one line for a recording artist. Its at the end of the video. I recorded the line....he did the post. Let me tell ya...I was excited to hear what he did with it.

I typically stand to record but for the video i decided to sit. As always...I have my room temp water, an apple slice, ive eaten and im hoping the neighbor doesn't honk his horn. The soundproof studio will have to wait.

every video you have your audio quality is compltely different, please dont end up going into sound design ;)

[acsherm3]

@jackassunit22 thank god these arent sound design videos...

Can't hear anything, the levels are not hight enough.

@jerbearfla I wasn't trying to be negative at all...What I was saying is...is that your title "Voice Over Training With Terry Daniels." eludes to a quality in the audio that just isnt there. Invite you to look up voice over training on youtube and see how many are mono. I understand what you are saying regarding the technical aspects, but you do have something to share so it would be nice to have it fully.

@jerbearfla These vids were also fed directly to youtube via the MBox. Mbox does not have a pan setting. What youtube did with it I dont know. Mono should be coming out both speakers.

I think that covers the stereo v mono issue.

[acsherm3]

@jerbearfla (from Voice123.com)nwhen two stereo channels have identical (mirror image) waveforms, as they would be when recorded from a single mic, the combining of the two stereo channels during conversion to make a single mono channel has the effect of almost canceling each other out, resulting in very low volume when a recoding is done. That is the case of the Voice123 uploading process. You can go around this problem by encoding your demo in mono format (not stereo) before you upload it.

@jerbearfla VO's are not recorded in stereo. Mono is the typical standard in the industry. (that I have seen) The engineer can do what he or she wants with it but it is recorded in mono.

these vids are not tutorials. They are only a video diary for me to look back on. I answer the questions people have with the information I know...and if I dont know...I say it.

I have had 3 coaches so far....none use stereo.
