The mixer settings for the microphone largely determine the sound quality of the voice. However, the sound engineer will not be able to achieve success alone - half the matter depends on the vocalist's or the announcer's ability to work with a microphone.
Instructions
Step 1
In most cases, the vocalist understands the relationship between loudness and the distance between the mouth and the microphone head. However, aspiring singers often forget to take it away when playing loud passages and high notes, and in quiet places and when singing low notes, they take it too far. In the first case, an overloaded sound will come to the console, which can no longer be saved. In the second case, no matter how much you turn up the volume, the signal will not be clear and audible enough. Therefore, when tuning vocals, feel free to ask the singer for the correct mic position.
Step 2
Take care of a quality tool. As a rule, the choice depends on the singer: the model and brand are chosen in accordance with the timbre. But in your arsenal should be a tool that will satisfy the needs of, if not all, then at least the majority of performers.
Step 3
Vocal tuning includes the use of effects. When choosing them, take into account the acoustic characteristics of the room. In particular, reverberation is unnecessary if the walls of the room already reflect sound. With the additional effect from the remote control, you risk the clarity of diction and intonation.
Step 4
Use special programs to remove sibilants if the vocalist has problems with diction. De-esser removes sibilants, not all consonants in a row, so the overall intelligibility will not be affected.
Step 5
Decrease the volume of the low frequencies (100 Hz and below). This is sometimes done by pressing the Low Cut button. After that, the "spitting" overtones on "p" will disappear. In addition, the overall intelligibility of words will be improved.
