The audio itself lacks vibrance, warmth and dynamics, and the overall sound is a bit distant. So I'm synching the audio from the digital unit with my video. The only reason I'm using this audio is because my VX2000 recording had problems with dropouts. I can barely see the peaks when I pull the audio into Vegas. The unit was placed probably five feet away from a singer playing guitar, and the record levels were fairly low. I forget the exact unit, but it's similar to one of those Marantz units. It has two stereo condenser microphones built into it. It was recorded by an amateur recordist using a digital recorder that records CD quality audio to SD cards.

I'd say it's a fair recording that I'm trying to improve to pretty good. But without knowing specifics I (or someone else) could spend hours typing useless information.Īgain I cannot state too strongly that high end plug ins are for sweetening high end recordings, in some respects you might do better in your case looking for forensic plug ins but they're not design for great sound, just to fish as much as possible out of mud. Alternatively if it's just one mic in a multitrack recording then there's a chance to cancel out some of the unwanted stuff from that track. I suspect in that case the mic picked up many, many things that you didn't want in the recording and getting rid of that and correcting the level will be mission impossible stuff. If it's just DV 16/48K that's way too low you'll never get it to great, if it's 24/48K you might have a chance.īut then you say the microphone was too far away. You haven't told us much about what's wrong with this recording, how it was recorded. With the best gear money can buy you'll never get from bad to great, that's why so much effort and expense is devoted to good recordings in the first place. Also going from bad to good is way, way harder than good to great and that's not the fault of plugins etc. In your case (I suspect) you have a bad recording that at best you might be able to turn into a good recording, forget making it a great recording. What it's relevant to is takeing a good recording and turning it into a great recording. There's lots of good advice floating around here but I suspect it's not terribely relveant to your problem.

Waves over izotope hands down if you're discerning. Now I'm not saying Waves is faultless either, but rather that the price difference is worth it and is far separated from izotope in overall quality.īesides the Diamond, a few waves bundle decisions are headscratchers.Īnd as the masses have screamed, the ridiculous copy-protection must be changed (it's 2006, there's gotta be something better than PACE now).īut all in all.they're some of the more "useful/musical" plugins one can use. Really, you're saving some pennies and getting very little with ozone, some will probably want to think ahead and spend for the right tools. One might find spending that little extra with possibly waves diamond or Platinum over izotope might fill a wider scope.

What about track plugs? Still using sony's only? A Waves bundle will fit that bill as well (and better if you're discerning).īut for a better complimented NLE with more than adequate daw tracking-mixdown setup (*heck, even mastering if you got the monitoring and room for it), I still must suggest doing a real check and balance of quality and needs for decent daw/NLE package The EQ isn't too bad though (ozone) and the imaging "can" be useful I guess. Even the sony plugs can suffice.īut when we get into some situations and the extreme, Ozone can leave it's own odd "coloring" to the audio (particulary the MB comp and maximizer - which are awful to me). I agree that almost any plugs out there will meet the basic needs for video editing (few/limited audio tracks, premade audio tracks (not tracking). >In some ways, Ozone is far better than the WAVES package, and for virtually any video editing situation, they will more than suffice.
