In this week's livestream we're joined by Lenny B, a studio voice over professional who has helped many voice-over artists achieve better sounding recordings. This time, Lenny will cover why, when, and how to use compression for voice over audio.
Learn more from Lenny, and he'll even process a VO clip for you to show you what's possible with your own recordings: lennyb.com
If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses at school.learnlightandsound.com including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F6, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders. We have a course on sound for live-streaming with the ATEM Mini, Introduction to Izotope RX for Dialogue Audio, and Mixing fundamentals in DaVinci Resolve Fairlight.
