Get it sounding good at the source, and you will have a far better final product. A~void thinking that you'll make it sound better with EQ and compression. Next time you record, think about what character and tone you want to capture. If you don’t like the tone of the voice recording, you might have to start again.

If you want your voice over to sound warm, you need to create this warmth in the recording phase.
The character and tone of any voice recording is decided long before you load up the DAW or audio editor and apply some EQ. It’s All Over Before You Know Itīefore I start talking about EQ, I want to ensure you have the right frame of mind when it comes to recording voice. In this tutorial, I'll show you how to approach equalization before going in to EQ specifically for voice.

But, unfortunately, they were butchered with aggressive, incorrectly applied EQ. I’ve even heard voice overs where the speaker sound so odd that the recording became simply unintelligible.Īll of these voice recording started with a great sounding clean voice.
I’ve heard voice overs that sound like the speaker was talking in a high-pitched voice-when they weren’t. I’ve heard voice overs that sound like the speaker had a blocked nose-when they didn’t. It’s easy to ruin a good voice recording with heavy-handed equalization.
