Voice Over Microphones - Samples and Thoughts on Choosing One Which Fits Your Voice
In today’s episode we talk about voice over microphones, give you audio samples of several with both male and female voices, and then talk about how to find a voice over mic which works well for your voice.
You can find Neumann Microphones's article on the difference between small and large diaphragm condenser microphones here.
You can hear the original wav audio files for each microphone over here.
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 including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders.
