- So, audio plugins are external pieces of software created
by different companies that you can install
and run inside audacity to make your audio sound better.
Now, look at some paid plugins
and then also a free plugin at the end.
So stay with me.
Here, I've got some recorded audio.
Great plugins to make you sound a lot better.
Okay. I'm gonna improve the voice with a couple
of played plugins here and all I need to do to
get those to work is go into affect, add/remove plugins
and search for them under new.
And you'll see here, I've got them just right here.
I want voice leveler and voice auto EQ.
Click enable, click okay.
And when I've done that they'll be installed
and available for me right here.
Here they are auto EQ and leveler they're from Accusonos.
They're really cool.
If you wanna download them yourself
go to mrc.fm/ERA. That's mrc.fm/ERA.
I'll start off with the voice auto EQ, which is pretty easy.
I'll click play.

So we'll apply that.
And of course I need to select everything

So let's do so. That's now done.
Now, I want to level out the voice.
So it's kind of all a consistent volume
and I can do that with the voice leveler right here.
Click okay to the popup here.
And let's just start from zero and go to 100%.

That's sounding quite loud and quite proud.
Great plugins.
Let's apply and look
at how it levels out the whole voice.
So, this is a pretty good start.
And finally, I did say I'd mention a free plugin.
It's called Graillon two
and it's a great plugin to auto tune and pitch your voice.
Let's have a play with it now.
I've already installed it.
You'll find the link to grab it
in the description to this video.
And I can go ahead and bring up one
of the factory presets, like the youngest speech and play.

It makes me sound like a robot
but I can change this pitch shift dial.
In audacity.
So, I can do kind of pitch bends
and we can do it again.

I can tweak some of these dials.
Let's do some more.
Great plugins to make you sound a lot better in audacity.
So you can have a lot of fun pitching your voice around
and even adding certain amounts of auto tune.
And this is all for free in the Graillon two plugin.
There is a full version where you can unlock more features
on this plugin, but I think as a free plugin
it's pretty good to get started with.
So, audio plugins, learn how they work, install them
on your audacity and have some fun.
Making your vocals, your music, everything else
sound even better.
