Download VO Logic Keymap.įrom the previous link in this document, you've now downloaded the VOLogic Key Commands file and are going to import it. If not, skip down to the next instance of +++ and continue from there. If you want to try this yourself, read on. It will be necessary to import this keymap into Logic, so we can either cover that in your lesson or you can attempt this on your own with the instructions below. We found some of the defaults to be a little strange, so a group of other blind Logic users have come together to try and rectify that with a custom keymap. This is a more specialised keymap beyond what Logic Pro provides, and is how I will be teaching you. My dropbox email address is how we'll be sharing lessons, projects and your assignments (yes, there's homework here □ I'm sorry) between ourselves. If you feel confident enough to do so, please setup a shared folder with yourself and myself. Please also download, install and sign into the Dropbox App on your Mac. If you don't already have a dropbox account, please make one as soon as possible using this link which will give you some free extra space beyond the standard 2GB.

How are you going to deliver it?, CD, hard disk, pen drive, or via the cloud using services like Dropbox, or Gobbler. What format does the client want it delivered in? 48/44/1 sample rate, 16 or 24 bit depth etc. Afterwards, make sure you backup the session onto another drive too as well as the cloud. Record onto another machine as well so if Pro Tools does fall over you still have the session. The other solution is for the VO artist to eat some apple, a tart apple like a Granny Smith tends to work best so have one ready just in case. Have water available but suggest the VO artist only takes sips. Mouth clicks can be a real problem in VO sessions. Get the right information from the client, as well as a copy of the script, don’t share a script, you need to be able to mark up your copy of the script ready for the edit session. the real test is what it sounds like not what it reads like. Writing for reading, for either off the page or off the screen is a different style to writing for listening. Voiceovers (VOs) are one of the hardest things to record, because there are lots of gaps between syllables and words and problems with the room acoustics as well as noise, both electronic and acoustic, are going to be very obvious so do the best you can.
