Very useful for non-musical voice recordings
Interesting to use plugins on input and then Bus channels keeping the raw and processed audio. Comping Room tone on silent passages, using shortcuts and making templates for frequent use make it so much easier to obtain quality results in record time. Recommended for podcaster, VO artists DJ voice overs users.

Finally ready to go.
I'm relatively new to voiceover and I'm not a sound engineer. Honestly, I was getting frustrated with Studio One after switching from Audacity. So much so, I took a month off from recording because I was so annoyed. Stepping away from the editing process was probably the best thing I did. I started recording again last night and everything is coming easier now. I dumbed down the process for myself, but I want to become more comfortable processing the signal chain.

Simple and clear
Marcus is always clear and thorough. This is an excellent starting point for narrators who try to do their own editing in Studio One. Audio book narration is becoming a booming industry and this should be a must watch video for those home narrators who do not hire out post production.

This is a very good intro to setting up your DAW/Computer to do voice overs
This helped a lot for setting up a smooth, quick workflow. Great if you will be doing any type of voice overs repetitively.

exactly what a voice over needs
although you need be familiar with studio one (I recommend taking the course, Studio one 4 "explained" before taking this course), the video covers everything a voiceover artist needs to set up his session, tracks, recordings and templates. Marcus is just great.

I gathered quite a few
I'm a voiceover artist who swung by to get up to speed on what's new in Studio One 4, spotted this course and decided to watch it to see if I was missing a trick. I was! For me, it was all about the signal chain plugins. Seeing where Marcus puts his and what he sets them at was really useful for me. I'll be making some tweaks to my standard VO template now, I think, to see how it goes. Learned about the free VU meter plugin too. Who knew?! I really dig having a bouncing red needle and a big 0 - much easier for me to see my levels and know I'm not clipping. I don't understand why the VU meter doesn't just come built in to S1 from the get go if it's free? Seems a bit daft to me that it doesn't. Anyway, duly downloaded. Thanks for the heads up! But I digress. Should you do this course? You'll need to have a handle on the basics of the S1 GUI for sure before you do. So if you're just starting out in VO, I'd say do the main Studio One courses first, then do this.
