AQuickVoiceClip and MineSpace

If you use Screenflow on the Mac… so do I! And that means maybe this post will be useful to you. I run audio plugins in post-production, and I’m using these along with DiracFXAU for pitch shifting, and Airwindows ToVinyl 2 for bass centering, to make my videos.

AQuickVoiceClip is for recordings such as gamer LPs, where the performance sometimes yells into the mic and completely blows it away into clipping. It subdues the HF hash while retaining clarity when not clipping, and contains a highpass that works with the anti-clipper code. It’s not a ‘un-clipper’ but it tames the distortion a bit.

MineSpace is a quick ambience creator that runs dual-mono and adds just a tiny bit of reverb at varying size/space! It’s for video post, not to replace real reverb plugins, and is set up to add subtle air and distance without being particularly noticeable. It’s called MineSpace because, you know, Minecraft! Square caverns that go on forever should have reverb.

These default to normal usable settings, though I make AQuickVoiceClip roll off a lot of bass for my pony voices. They’re load-and-forget type plugins without a lot of fuss. To use varying verb sizes on MineSpace, edit the Screenflow video where you want it to change, and set the MineSpace on that bit of audio differently. It will reset its verb buffers so it won’t be continuous, but Screenflow doesn’t let you automate plugin controls, so at least it’s a way to sort of alter the settings :)

Hope it comes in handy! These are free to have.
