New voice-over recording workflow?

I just dug up what's new in the update I just installed, and I'm not seeing the expected "Voice-over Record button" after following the described steps. Am I missing something?
Premiere Pro says it's up to date, and I was able to expore the other new features without any problems. CC Version 7.2.0 (46)

Hi TeeKayCC,
Please check the forums thread below which has the same discussion. Hope it helps.

RED footage record frame rate

I am working with some RED footage in PP CS5.5 and I would like to check with my media what was the recording frame rate at the time of the shoot. I looked into the metadata and cannot find any field with that information. For example I have some slow motion footage shot at different frame rates and I would like to identify precisely what it is.
If I go in REDCINE-X PRO there is a field called "Record Frame Rate" that gives me exactly that information. What is the equivalent in Premiere Pro and where can I find it?
Thank you,
David

No... I checked the Clip Properties window as well with no luck...
Here is the information I get in REDCINE-X PRO: you can see that particular clip was shot at 300 fps
Here is the information I get in PP CS5.5, inside the project window (I looked also into the metada information with no luck so far...):
Again when I play this clip in PP @ 23.976, it plays in slowmo as expected because it was shot at 300 fps. What I would like to get is that information of Recorded Frame Rate in PP.
Thanks,
David

No voice-over recording when exporting to Quick Time

I made a presentation in Keynote 4.0.3 with soundtrack and voice-over recording but when I export to Quick Time movie I can only hear the soundtrack. (The include slideshow recording box was checked). Can anyone help me?

Hello Ian:
Welcome to discussions!
is your exernal drive formatted Mac OS X Extended? it should be.
Try using Apple's Disk Utility to format the drive. However, when you reformat you will lose all files on the external drive in the process.

External recording indication for voice over recording

hi,
i'm wondering if there is any way to get recording indication for voice over recording out of final cut pro or soundtrack pro. i need to get the 'on air' signalization to the speaker room which is not the same as editing room.
i'm looking for something like

which i'm used to use with protools. does anybody have any idea?
thanks for help

How about a switch you throw to turn on a recording light in the booth? I think less tech here is likely better.

Voice Over Recording Edit view vs Multitrack View

Hi Guys, need some advice here.
I have always recorded Voice Overs in edit view with Audition 3.0 (Windows 7 64bit)
Recently I purchased a Creative sound card (X-Fi Titanium HD) which sounds great and records 24/96Khz with great results using several different microphones, mainly a EV RE20.
I have the main outputs of my mixer left and right coming out using 1/4 inch cables and going into the soundcards Aux left and right inputs via RCA..
In Auditions audio hardware setup edit view, there is only a choice for either Aux left or Aux right but not a mix of both as a input. (using Aux left)
Not using the mic input on the card because I wanted to use the RCA ins (Left/Right) on the soundcard and the mic input is a single 1/8 input which would require another Y 1/4 to 1/8 cable and the fact that I have had issues with 1/8 inputs before.
So, when I record Voice Overs in edit view, I think I"m really getting only half the signal (Aux left) which means I need to up the gain on the preamp more than I would like to get a good level.
Recently, I have been recording in multitrack view using Track 1 Aux left and Track 2 Aux right and then doing a mixdown to mono which results in a nice strong level without having to boost the gain to much.
So I guess my questions would be am I in fact only recording half the signal in edit view by just using Aux left
and if that is true, should I just continue to record in multitrack view using the setup I decribed above.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I have always heard that if you just raised the level using gain you take the chance of also introducing more noise in the signal and I was wanting to avoid that.
The short and sweet answer to this is that once you've recorded the signal, the amount of noise is fixed. But what you have to do to optimise this is called 'gain staging'. In the case of your preamp, this invariably means that you set the gain so that the clipping indicator (I take it that it has one?) indicates that you've got it just lower than it takes to light it on the loudest sound you want to record. With these signals present, you then set the input level control on your sound device (not the same as gain) so that it records these signals at around -5 to -10dB, in a controlled environment. In a non-controlled environment you'd allow a bit more than that. This gap between the -10dB and 0dB is called 'headroom'.
So basically, you are recording the best signal to noise ratio you can get from your preamp at the best level you can with your sound device. And that, by definition, is optimum.

How do i trim a voice over recording in imovie?

I am making an imovie with the most recent updated imovie software. I have recorded about 30 minutes of voice over...now I need to trim it as there are bloopers and mistakes...it is possible to edit that recorded voice over or no? I can't seem to find a way to do it.HELP, PLEASE!!!

This worked in the previous version, and I believe it still works, but I have not tested.
Select the Voiceover track. Move the playhead to where you want to split the track and type command-shift-s.
Move to the other trim point and type command-shift-s. Now you can delete the portion you wanted to trim.

Sountrack or Logic/Logic Express for voice over recording?

Hello,
I am wondering which software is best for voice over work? Sountrack or Logic/Logic Express?
Any input would be great. I would add the standard effects/filters to certain voice overs and add sound effects and music.
I have a midi/guitar and garage band is enough for me. I would not want to use Garageband as my software of choice for voice over work. I want markers and other more advanced tools?
Thanks,
Erik

Thanks for the answer.
I was looking at the Dialogue Tools in Sountrack and they appear to be perfect.
My main questrion is can record into Sountrack with a mic right? I have an m-audio saphire with a m-audio preamp.
I saw a demo of Soundtrack at NAB and all the effects looked perfect for voice over. I think Logic Studio is overkill but Sountrack and Logic Express( for my guitar) might be a perfect 1-2 punch. I will get Sountrack with The Final Cut Studio as I need video tools as well.
Thanks,
Erik

IMac-Questions for professional voice over recording

I'm about to purchase an iMac.Hi-I've used a PC for years recording VOs.Now I'm considering an iMac (3.20GHz Intel Core i3,4GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x2GB,1TB or 2TB Serial ATA Drive,ATI Radeon HD 5670 512MB GDDR3 SDRAM) Anyone willing to share some ideas and answer some questions I have about the eventual switch? Since I enjoy things very simple,until now I've achieved great results with a Sennheiser MD421-II mic,DBX 286A preamp/processor and Audacity on my PC. I'm a bit technically challenged when it comes down to knowing the inner workings of computers and Macs but I was told that I might need to look at the sound card that comes with the above iMac and consider upgrading it? Is this true? Is the graphics card adequate? Are the processor,Ram,hard drive adequately sized for VOs? Also...with the PC,my signal chain (if you want to even call it that: ) is mic,preamp,processor to computer via miniplug. Can I use the same with the iMac or do I need extra equipment? Thanks! So many questions....Thanks for any help or suggestions.

That computer will do everything you want and more. I have the same thing.
I haven't used the input on it yet, but the output is great minus 1 fault and that is the ground seems weak. I have two rokit8 monitors hooked up and was getting horrible ground loop noise, didn't happen in my old imac, just the new one.
Now in terms of software you are gonna be in recorders heaven. I have both garageband and logic pro 9 on mine. Garageband can be used for simple recordings, or fairly in depth recordings depending on the project and how good you become with GB. Logic pro is about as professional as you can get, a lot of the songs you hear on the radio are recorded using logic.
Now with the hardware it depends on your taste, I personally have never heard better sound from a computer then the setup I have now. And I am pretty sure I could make professional voice overs using the built in mic . But the quality of the sound card in question depends on you.
I would bet you would be content with the sound card they come with.

Help with Voice-over recording - Strange tunnel/underwater effect

Hi there!
To start off, I am a beginner with audio equipment and recording, and very new to Audition. I recently did a voiceover recording in a studio setting, and was helped by an "audio engineer" -- although now I'm wondering if that's true -- because the WAV file we were provided is VERY noticeably off. It sounds like a tunnel, or underwater.
I'm not sure if this file is too far-gone to be able to fix with proper mixing-- I'm posting this in hopes that there is a simple fix, but I realize that this could need to be re-recorded. So any advice is MUCH appreciated.
Here is a clip of the Voice-over: Clip.wav - Google Drive
Thanks in advance!

Hey, J.
It sounds like the two channels of audio in your WAV file have been merged to mono. That's no always a bad thing, but in this case, they are no longer in-phase, so there is some interaction between the two channels. Can you send me the original file via dropbox or google drive to [email protected] for analysis? If the two channels of this stereo .wav are isolated, then you can save this recording by splitting them apart...which I can help you with inside the software.
Cheers,
-ChrisS

Voice over Recording

I want to record voice-overs (VO) in soundbooth. I have watched the Prem Pro and Soundbooth tutorial at Lyndia .com. I can successfully record a VO recording, but nowhere in the tutorial do they tell you how to import the prem pr timeline. All tutorials already had timelines imported. I have an edited timeline that I want to import into soundbooth, so I can watch the timeline while I record my VO. Do I have to somehow convert the timeline to a different format than the timeline currently is? My sndbth workspace is set up to show the video window. How do I import the timeline or can I record VO directly to the PremPro timeline? Thank you for any help, as I am relatively new to these programs. I have version CS4. Jean Matusik

Thanks for the info Jarrod. I successfully recorded a VO in PP CS4 a couple of days ago. Then, I processed the VO file in the timeline. Thanks though. Jean Matusik

Is the video record frame rate adjustable?

I would like to set up an iPod - don't own one yet - or video camera to see what the dog is doing when I'm not around. I think 3 fps should be sufficient. Can the iPod touch do this? Does it require a separate app? Can anyone suggest a dedicated camcorder that does this and tell me why that might be better than an iPod? I would also like to make other videos at normal frame rates.
Thanks,
Scott

You are welcome.
You may want to consider it's replacement model, the 6220 classic. It does 30fps and 640x480.

How to do voice over recording on Macbook Pro13

I bought this MacBook Pro 13" for doing small recording such as e-learning modules. Can you guys enlighten me which type of Mic would fit into do my job well? Can I use the USB microphone Jack to get connected to the dynamic mic to suppress the surrounding noise? If so are they available in India especially in Delhi? Please help me out.
Thank you

The Blue Yeti microphone would do the job admirably:

Recording voice over doesn't give "red light" feedback

In the documentation it says that when a voice over recording begins "A pulsing red light in the upper-left corner of the screen indicates that recording is in progress."
I see the red like graphic and what looks like an audio meter, but they are static--they don't blink or change or anything. So I don't get a visual feedback that it is actually recording or if my audio level is right.
I just installed iWork 09 this week and it seems to be the same results on the 3 different Macs I use around here.
Is this a feature in 09 or did I miss some setting someplace?

Yes, I've proven it is a bug with external sound cards/mixers. I switched to the internal audio on my MacBook Pro and the meter worked fine. I did report it, but who knows if or when it'll be corrected. Perhaps they have an issue with external devices that self-regulate the audio levels?

How to do a voice over for video?

I am using the Adobe CS4 Production Premium suit to produce my first training video. I need to go back and do voice overs to clean up the audio. I am looking for the ideal setup to do this. I am new to the whole video production arena, so these questions I am sure are very basic:
First off, it is my understanding that the speaker needs to be watching the final cut of the video as to keep in line in pace with him moving lips. The person in question is not a professional, thus not accustom to listening to himself as he is recorded. Should he be listening to the audio that he is going to be replacing (the playback), the live audio he is creating, or both? If both, I am assuming one channel is the live and the other is the playback, correct?
I am looking at USB style microphones and some of them have headphone monitoring ports on the microphone that result in zero latency. This sort of implies to me that I cannot rely on Soundbooth to play the audio/video and mix back in the live audio for the speaker. That if mixing the two together for the headset, I will need to do that all outside of the computer. Is that correct?
Or is the simplest setup to encode the video clip to DVD and have the speaker simply watch it on a regular TV and listen to the audio playback with the headset and I monitor him via Soundbooth?
As you can tell, I am simply trying to figure out how to setup everything to make the voice over recording as quick and easy as possible, both of which I know it is not. I am open to ideas, I am even more open to any web sites or books that might help explain and talk about how to do this type of voice overs.
