Voice over processing in Adobe Audition is a fine art and it can be quite time consuming to find the right filters and effects to apply. Yet that process can make a mile long difference and make you stand out from other voice recordings.
- Get up to speed quickly and gain the working knowledge you need with this clear, practical guide to Adobe®’s Audition™ 2.0. With Roger Derry's expert advice, you'll master Audition's basic tools and tricks as well as discovering it's more advanced editing, multitrack and processing tools.
- To use Adobe Audition effectively, you need a bit of the technical know-how of the software. With the effects section of the Adobe Audition, you get access to hundreds of tools that can give your vocals a finishing touch. One important point to note, however, on your journey editing audio files is not to add too many effects or filters to your voice clip. Each filter has its impact on the wave form of any vocals it is.
This is by far one of the most popular topics we are asked to cover. So much so that we have created two videos to showcase various approaches.
EQ and Compression Sparkle
Here’s a tutorial on how to EQ, compress and add a little sparkle to any voice over in minutes. There are a few tricks that take no time at all for you to add to the voice and you can even save them as a preset in Adobe Audition. This means that every time you perform a voice over you can simply hit a hotkey and all these settings are applied in one quick session.

Apply the measured filter response to other signals to place them in the same “acoustic world”. Export the measured filter response to or import it from a linear- or minimum-phase impulse response file (WAV). Mastering grade adaptive, free-form and graphic equalization. Extremely steep 96dB/octave shelving high-pass filter.
