Voice over sounds distorted

[maxinejarlsbo]

Hi! Im trying to record a voice-over. As soon as I press the mic-button and start to talk, the recording immediately makes my voice distorted and almost sound

"alien-like". I tried doing voice-overs in Imovie and that worked without any problems, so its not the computer.

If anyone has any suggestions on what I could do about this, I would be glad to hear it. Thanks!

Hi maxinejarlsbo,

Sorry for the issue. Go to Premiere Pro Preferences > Audio hardware & check the settings.

Try changing the Default Input device & Latency.

Thanks,

Vidya

I recommend doing this kind of work with a Digital Audio Recorder, something like the Zoom H1n.  They tend to work pretty flawlessly.

Not sure if this is going to help, but I was having the same issue. My voice kept sounding higher than usual when it was recorded and played back. I tried adjusting everything and still couldn't fix it. I use a Zoom H1 by the way... THEN I adjusted the recording sample rate on Premier Pro to 44100Hz to match the 44Hz recording rate on my mic. in Adobe I went to PREMIER PRO > Preferences > Audio Hardware > Sample Rate, from there adjust the sample rate to match your Microphone. Hope that helps.
