Oh um hi. ^^; I'm thinking of doing voice acting. So I was curious what programs or tech do you use? You know, for reference.
Ah, well good on you! :D It’s definitely a lot of fun, and it gives you an excuse to hold long conversations with yourself. XD
As far as what programs or tech I use:
Program: Audacity - A free-source audio editor. I’ve used this since my college days, and it’s got some nifty editing effects. It’s not super advanced like other programs, but it gets the job done.
Tech: Blue Yeti Mic - Recently got this for last Xmas. Nice professional-grade mic. What I like about this is that it has four different input settings when recording, so it reduced background noise reduction.
OBVIOUSLY THE MIC I have is optional - I got it as a gift and it’s pretty expensive. My advice to you would be to do some research on more affordable microphones (which I should’ve done before buying my last mic before the new one. >__>;; ) You should try to get one that reduces as much background noise as possible. It helps a lot and is easier on the ears. There’s also tutorials online on how to reduce background noise, if you have the time to look it up.
Same logic applies to Audacity - I only use it because I’ve had it since college, and it’s easier on the wallet. I’m sure there’s plenty more audio programs that are good, if not better. Whatever tickles your fancy I suppose.
I’m still an amateur at best when it comes to voice acting stuff, but I hope this was helpful! Good luck getting into it. C:
