Hello,
I did a search and decided to just create a new thread on this specific topic.
I am looking for advice on reducing or even eliminating (hopeful) the mechanical artifacts produced by audio software. An example is Audacity, a common and free application. The plugin included with Logic is similar and even superior but it also produces the unnatural sounding mechanical artifacts best described as that unnatural character getting farther away from a natural sounding voice and ever closer to a vocoder sound.
All of this type of software produces a mechanical artifact. It is easy to produce a robotic voice but it is difficult to significantly manipulate a voice and end up with a natural result.
I have purchased software that manipulates the voice in a wide range of ways from young to old, real and cartoony and then of course robotic which I could get with free software. I am trying to end up with as natural a voice as possible.
I imagine that the software company would include it in the product if it were possible so I assume that it does not exist. I have heard nothing from them in response to my inquiries. So I am here looking for tips to reduce/eliminate as much of this unnatural artifact as possible yet still make significant adjustments to the original voice. The more significant the greater the adverse consequences. I need to be able to change a voice from a young adult to elderly and child without it ending up sounding robotic.
Are there DAW tools or plugins that target this specific artifact?
Would something like SoundSoap help with this?
Thank you in advance.
