Episode description

2022.07.08 – 0554 – Mic Muck-Ups Solved!: Off-Mic Audio

Off mic audio

If your voice is off-mic, it will sound thin, muffled and distant. Move closer to the mic, speaking more clearly across its top (not directly into it, and so avoid ‘plosives’) and with better level-monitoring. Choosing a different type of microphone with an alternative pickup range may also be the answer. Wear headphones so you can monitor the recording as you make it. Sometimes altering the EQ (equalisation) on the voice may help solve part of the problem in ‘post’ (post-production) – but as always prevention is easier than cure!
