The Voice-over Tool
Make yourself comfortable behind the micro-
phone of your virtual sound recording studio ...
Voice Over tips
Be careful not to overwrite any clips on
the selected Tra c k (voice over is always in
Overwrite Style). It’s best to configure a
separate Tra c k for Voice Over clips.
Divide the voice over recording into man-
ageable segments.
Checking audio settings
Click the menu bar > Edit > Settings > User >
Audio Settings. Look under Preferred device to see
whether it contains the soundcard to which the
microphone is connected. Then select Preferred
quality. In the extended area, test whether the sys-
tem is picking up the audio.
Recording a voice over
1 Open the Audio Editor (F4, ).
2 Set a Timeline mark-in at the point where
you want to start recording (if desired,
you can also set a mark-out at the end).
3 Select a Tra ck for a Voice Over clip: Acti-
vate the pale red box below the Clip Fader
belonging to the Tra c k to activate (the box
must now glow bright red).
4 Click the microphone icon . Follow-
ing a brief preroll time, recording begins
at the mark-in
.
5 Press the SPACEBAR or click to stop
recording.
6 The Voice Over clip is inserted on the
Tr a c k selected.
21 Recording Voice Over
This tool, which records a voice over in sync with the image, is also available in Avid Liquid. To record
sound, you need a microphone and a sound card.
