Audacity Tutorial (Useful for SFM): Man voice to woman voice

[Kartoffel]

I figured that this would be useful to post in the SFM section, in case people were wanting to record their own audio or something like that, and were lacking a female voice actor. This should help broaden the possibilities a little bit.

Also, please don't mind the congestion, stuttering, or constant references to me being a sick bastard. I swear that these were all induced by the combined effect of multiple takes and me feeling under the weather. Hopefully it proves useful, and remember:

Practice makes perfect.

[sp]Also, if this is in the wrong section, could a Mod move it to the right one? Thanks![/sp]

Also, feel free to count how my times I say "um". Consider it a contest.

I lack male voice actors. How can I make my 12-year-old boy-almost-girl voice sound like an older gentleman's? :v:

[Kartoffel]

Hire some old guy off the streets. :v:

Practice may make perfect, but pitch-changing your voice will NEVER make it sound like a woman's.

I understand that, but this tutorial was made to try to get it as close as you possibly can without using a woman, in case you can't get ahold of one. Frankly, I will never use this in my own videos, but this was aimed at people who do not have the luxury of knowing a lot of people.

Great, now we need a tutorial for the opposite, turning a woman into a man's...
Wait, Disney covered that in Mulan, nevermind

You'd think you would use the noise reduction thing for your own commentary in the video. :v:

Nice video.

Yeah, you'd think! :v:

I had already dealt with a couple of botched takes before, so I didn't really wanna look at audacity again. Maybe at some point I'll go back and do some noise reduction, but right now, between college work and my personal life, this is all I'm gonna do.
