Question

Plugins to Level up all the SFX

Hi guys!!! 

 

I've been editing for quite some time and now I work for a YouTuber I handle editing very well and I'm very meticulous and each time I like to perfect my techniques more and more, now it's time for the sound effects.

 

I have controlled the Voice with few presets directly in a audio track, I don't remember exactly what they were but in short there are about 3 or 4 and they leave me with the perfect voice, removing this introduction let's move on to the question.

 

How do I do it so that I can somehow level all the audio effects so that I don't have to raise and lower the level of all of them?

 

The transition effects sound very low, the impact at another level, the swhoshes at another, and they are all from artlist, so they are not a hodgepodge.

 

 I would like to know what plugins to use if I have to buy it I don't mind, or witch presets to add to an audio channel to leave all the sounds "SFX" at the same volumen.

 

I have tried many things but I can't find the correct key, and I have watched tons of videos on youtube.

 

 Thanks guys!!!

    Dear friend @Sherex , you don't need to buy anything. I'm telling you how to control the effects on the timeline: put one group of effects on track A1 (for example, transition sounds). Place another group of effects on the second track (for example, street sounds), the next group of effects on the third A3, etc. Then go to the control panel and adjust the volume level of a certain group of effects using the fader to increase or decrease the sound. And also about other groups of effects. In this case, you will affect one group of effects that are located on a certain audio track, without affecting other groups of sounds.
    Cheers, Buffy

    Thanks! But this is exactly how I do it. With the voice it's OK, and took me like 1 week to set up the pefecet voice trough 4 presets that affects directly to the sound track 1.

     

    I wanted to do the same with SFX, I guess I'll have to keep doing what I already do, and I thought professionals would also use compressors in SFX.

     

    Let me ask something, what's the best way to level up all peeks of transitions to sounds? Which it's my main problem and this are the most unleveled.

    Place all transition effects on one track and raise the volume level of all effects with a fader at the same time. As for the compressor, this is not the right option, because the compressor aligns along the upper boundary by compressing the loudest peaks in the sound, making the sound denser and bassier. As I understand it, we are talking about adjusting the volume for effects, and the compressor performs a slightly different task.

    Select audio clips in timeline > ESP > dialog > Loudness > Auto Match.

    Hi! I'm talking about SFX, not dialog, and with the way you say it's working really bad for my style of editing.

     

    Let's see if someone can still help, thanks btw

    Sorry, SFX has also auto match.

    If that is not what you are looking for, then it's one by one.
