Underwater Effect

Muddiness... A couple of things... Try expanding the vocals so you get the dotted words to pop up a little, that might clarify the words, and tweak the frequency of the vocals for that part to drop all bottom end, and spike up with a heavy-ish Q setting the 2-3.5k range of the vocals. I think you might be able to get that closer to clear. I think of under water talking as being more higher bass and midrangy and very very compressor like sound. You might also want to look at the frequency of the bubble effect in SD because that can affect the muddiness of it. Turn on filtering in SD and yank the lower frequencies down to see if it helps move the effect out of the way for the vocals.

Finally, make sure that you're doing this via a send this way the original vocals are there and send as much as you want of the effect out ot the bubble in SD until you get a good mix of bubbles and clear vox.

Band On The Run,

I enjoy reading your good and helpful responses.

With you I don't know if you're being sarcastic or genuine... soooo thanks?

Band On The Run,

Genuine.

No saracsm.

I appreciate good intellectual accomplishment and enjoyed reading your last posts.

And, we both come from the programming community, I think, where you had to be good or it just didn't work.

Anyhow, genuine appreciation for your good work.

(as to the past, I was a very good, nationally ranked debater and I still enjoy some good old fashioned sword play. Some of my best friends are of the same cut. Yet, we all know that it is just in fun and after "touche" we are still friends. I hope that is the case here.)

I've done quite a bit of work, do I know you in real life or have you used the software I've written???

Band On The Run,

No, I do not believe we know each other in real life nor do I use your software.

We do share the willingness to undergo the discipline and patience which programming requires and which I thought I could detect in your technical posts.

However, I think we otherwise have quite different backgrounds. I started in 1961 as a Research Engineer (from a social science background) and have never really worked for anyone. Started with North American Aviation and went to The RAND Corporation which was the best of the best at its time. While I was at RAND I was, in a sense a Beta tester on BASIC, although we didn't call it Beta then. Four teletypewriters doing BASIC all at the same time running off the Johnniac, a first generation tube machine, in a sense the son of Eniac. Designed in large part by John Von Neuman, thus the name.

I cashed in my PhD and computer knowledge and became a Full Professor with tenure at the University of Missouri at Kansas City. I was free to pursue such computing goals as I wished.

I retired fourteen years ago and still use my digital capabilties but as an applications user, not a programmer.

You can see our backgrounds are probably quite different.

Thanks for responding.

hahaha yeah quite... Was not born in 61 even. 67. However, been in computing for the last 14 years, Java mostly.

iSchwartz,

My University Dean, my boss of bosses, did not appreciate my free soul. However, he put up with me.

I was fortunate to get in early and be able to watch it all happen. I used my freedom to try to stay at the leading edge, instead of doing the vocational COBOL the Dean wanted.

I still have the same desire and now feel like I am close to the bleeding edge, where the blood has not clotted yet. I got this feeling particularly when learning about Red Camera.

LM

Band On The Run,

I know.

I just did a search for Red Camera. I'll be curious to see how the in situ reviews of it read. While the lens picture looked like a photograph of a real object (and beautifully done), the camera and alternate bodies themselves looked a bit too contrived. So not crazy about the ID on those, but a rose by any other color...

iSchwartz,

Graeme Nattress is on the Red Camera development team. The co-big dog, along with the owner, came from Kona. I think it might work, although slipping schedule a bit maybe.

LM

creepy.

sorry, confused, you know what?
