Sorry about my Voice

[michal]

Watched just for a while. Video quality is really good


As for your voice...

...

...

well

I'm not sure you want to hear this.

You should be nominated to become official OpenXcom lector Your voice sounds fantastic I love it

Your voice is fine luke, very easy to understand. Only problem is you should clean up the background noise with an audio editor next time.

Biggest problem i have is all the Mod tools are Windows based and  i have not had much luck getting WINE to handle them

Since the programs are .NET-based, have you tried using Mono instead?

+1 on Luke becoming the official voice of all OXC video presentations from now on.

You're too good at this to let your skill rot.

[luke83]

Ummmmm Thanks

gosh Audio editor , things are getting complicated , is there a idiot proof, free program somewhere, save me looking?


"Since the programs are .NET-based, have you tried using Mono instead?"  What is Mono?

i use Audacity for audio editing. It's pretty good, but I don't know if it works on video files.

Audacity is what I use, it's free, cross-platform, and has plenty of helpful guides: https://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Noise_Removal
It only works with audio files though, so you would have to record your mic and screen separately and combine them afterwards. I can post my video process later if you think it'll help.

"Since the programs are .NET-based, have you tried using Mono instead?"  What is Mono?

Mono is a cross-platform .NET Framework, it (usually) lets you run .NET programs on any platform, even if they're EXEs, so it might help you out with MapEdit.

I think slightly better mic and/or audiocard will do this job much better than any audio editor. Cleaning noise after recording is not very good idea, since there still will be some (and quite a lot, if my hear it right) audible artifacts.

That's a good tutorial vid. Well done!

Better Mic and Audio card are not really options because financial stress

Ok , i will try out Audacity and MONO , thanks for the help

So, guys, small openxcom kickstarter for luke83? I have some spare bucks in my paypal account. I guess i could donate 5 - 10 $

Audacity [...] only works with audio files though, so you would have to record your mic and screen separately and combine them afterwards. I can post my video process later if you think it'll help.

You could use VirtualDub (it's free) to combine and synchronize your audio and video streams (among the other things it can do).

@michal: That would be a good idea. And from Luke's impressive presentation, it's a worthy initiative

[luke83]

Haha , my current Mic only cost me  $10 ( about the same price as a large mcdonalds meal), lets see how the Audio editor works first on cleaning things up. If we get to a point where i need to add a audio card i will save up for a new PC first and get one put in , i am estimating this to be the last year of this one before something explodes

Recording the video seperate to the sound is no big problem , i lost 80% of the sound that went with that last video so i just talked into the Mic whilst watching it.

[michal]

Anyone knows what's the prices of good mics?

I've found that:

https://www.amazon.com/Pyle-Pro-PDMIC58-Professional-Handheld-Microphone/dp/B003GEBGA0/ref=pd_cp_MI_0

Costs, $12.88 - so i guess 20$ - 30$ should be enough for good mic? Or not?
