Summary: 1. Be well hydrated coming into the session. Occasionally sip water throughout to maintain. Green apples can, for a short duration, decrease stickiness of saliva. 2. Try not to close your mouth/lips all the way throughout sentences/phrases. 3. Edit out what mouth noises remain either manually, preserving the quality of the recording, or, with a plugin, to save time but with some detriment to the recording’s quality.
Just subbed. Mouth noise is always a sticky point. I do really appreciate the free declicker and de-esser for audacity. I manually cut out clicks between sentences, but mid word clicks sure arise with a cotton mouth and a fat tongue. I find the declicker very helpful, but agree with you, it’s best to have a raw recording that sounds good. You can only improve them so much. I also pick up swallowing in my recordings. I’ve learned to pause after a sentence, swallow, pause and start again. Gives me room to just cut that out. What type of mic do you use and what distance do you speak from it? I have a dynamic and condenser options, but both seem to pick up about the same.
Makes sense. I was nervous trying to record my dialogue for a youtube video im making so I kept hitting my vape in between takes which definitely dried out my mouth. Great info thank you so much
First of all, great video! Also, I just drank a gatorade/powerade drink and it made a significant difference, also apple juice works great too! obviously only for a limited time, but the gatorade gives you hydration which is an added bonus!
Great video and very professional. Surprised you don't have more subscribers tbh. Thanks for the advice, I've just received my first comment on this and I want to try and get it under control haha.
Your channel at least this video deserves more views. My channel is totally based on voiceover and your video really helps. Mouth noise is annoying af.
I gotta be real with y'all. I hear so much mouth noise in Marques Brownlee's audio. I don't know why. Maybe he just wants the minimal amount of audio editing because "that's how people are supposed to sound" or something. I kinda want to send a message to his team like, "You know there's a lot of mouth noise in these videos, right?" ...but they're the ones with professional audio equipment and experience with editing audio / video, not me, so I kinda just assume they know about the mouth noise and choose not to get rid of it for whatever reason and they would be pissed off with me if I send them something like that, especially if they get that message all the time.
