Hey guys it's Mark here from Editors Keys and today I'm going to show
you how to record a perfect voiceover into Adobe Premiere Pro CC. In this
step-by-step guide I'll show you how to easily record voiceover without any
complicated equipment or previous knowledge and if you stick around till
the end of the video we've got something special just for you.
We've had so many requests on how to do this but before we jump into Adobe
Premiere it's important that you look after the environment and make sure that
is good first. So first of all you want to make sure that you turn off all air
conditioning units, radios in the background, close all windows and that's just so you
don't get any traffic noise coming into the microphone as you're recording. Now
for this recording we're using the Editors Keys Studio Series SL600
microphone, which is a broadcast USB mic. You can use any USB mic on the market
and there are some really good ones out there. So we want to make sure now that
we're all plugged in and ready to go. okay now I've got this all set up let's
jump straight into Adobe Premiere Pro CC and show you how easily this is done.
When using a USB microphone you'll want to make sure you have it selected on
your computer to ensure the audio is being recorded from that rather than the
computer's inbuilt microphone. Step one is to go to the system preferences then
go to sound then input and make sure the USB microphone is selected. Then within
Adobe Premiere go to preferences then select audio hardware and make sure the
microphone is selected there under input. You can double check the setting by
right-clicking on the microphone and going to the voiceover record settings
and hit this little icon here. It opens up this window so just check that your USB
microphone is selected. You can also change the countdown timer within this
section here in case you need a little more time before the recording starts.
We're using our last tutorial here as an example from our Instagram which if you
haven't seen you can check out straight after this video. As you can see we have
our edit put together in the timeline and we're ready to record our vocals all
we need to do is go to the point in our edit where we want the voice-over
to start. Make sure on your timeline to create a mark in point by pressing 'I' on
your keyboard. This will be the place that your voiceover records from if you
don't see an empty audio track you can add a new one by right clicking here and
selecting add audio track. Now all we need to do to start recording our
voiceover is to hit this little microphone icon here and as you'll see
we get a timer show up on our output window. Once the timer counts down we can
start our recording. Press stop once you're done and voila that's it you've
got the finished perfect take. You can now edit this file or pull it into
another program like Adobe Audition to remove noise or improve the vocal. You'll
find whatever you record with you're likely to get some low-level hum from
the laptop or a PC there might also be some traffic noise in the background as well
so it's always worth cleaning this up. ok and that's how easily it's done,
you've got your voiceover recorded! So I hope you found that useful and if you did
