Der Voice Designer ist eines der mächtigsten und am wenigsten bekannten Werkzeuge in Nuendo – und er ist ausschließlich dort zu finden, nicht in Cubase. In diesem Tutorial zeige ich dir alle wichtigen Funktionen: vom Roboter-Effekt und Whisper-Modus über Formant-Shifting mit Detune und Preserve bis hin zum Morph-Modus mit verschiedenen Generator-Quellen wie Noise, Square und Sawtooth. Du siehst außerdem, wie du die Stereobreite mit Spatial anpasst, den Delay-Feedback-Effekt nutzt und einen Sidechain-Eingang verwendest, um deine Stimme mit einem anderen Signal zu modellieren. Egal ob Roboterstimmen, Sci-Fi-Sounds oder kreative Voiceover-Bearbeitung – der Voice Designer bietet unzählige Möglichkeiten. Außerdem: Am 4. und 5. Juli findet in meinem Tonstudio ein 2-tägiger Workshop statt. Wir arbeiten von Scratch an einem echten Trailer – von der Analyse des Videomaterials über die Stereo-Mischung bis hin zu 5.1.

Making a Scene Presents an Interview with Sawtooth Witch Sawtooth Witch was born out of restlessness and the open road. After years of crisscrossing the country with a string of bands, multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter Pat "Doc" Dougherty found himself chasing something he couldn't quite name — a sound that lived somewhere between the genres he'd spent a lifetime soaking in. He found the missing piece when he reconnected with old friend and collaborator Haley Fleming, whose fiddle playing carried the ghost of Appalachian hollers and the grit of a late-night juke joint in equal measure. Together, they started building something that didn't fit neatly into any box — and that was exactly the point. http://www.makingascene.org
Jaden Bales returns to the show, and this time, for a School of September! Jaden always packs a punch when coming on the show, and he brings some fresh ideas for this one. In this episode, Jaden and I discuss an often overlooked topic; how to scout for your upcoming elk season. He breaks down how he approaches his scouting opportunities into a three part process that pays dividends once elk season starts. We discuss scouting some high country, low country, and safety spots, of which all three potentially hold elk in them. This is a great episode to build elk knowledge from, make sure you're following Jaden on Instagram! Show Sponsors! Phelps Game Calls - The game call company of The Western Huntsman!

We go back and forth on the decay that is eating our American society and offer up some insights and ideas as to how we rectify the broken path we are on. Listeners beware, soft feelings won't jive well with this episode.

In this episode, Sawtooth Frank takes a sledgehammer to the comforting myths of spring. First, Sawtooth examines how Donald Trump's favorite new slogan, “peace through strength,” falls apart under scrutiny, revealing how brute military force produces the exact instability it claims to prevent.Then, Sawtooth pivots to the season itself. From St. Patrick's Day to Earth Day, spring holidays sell us a story of rebirth, renewal, and cheerful green optimism. However, nature tells a darker tale. Spring isn't warm and gentle. It's cold and chaotic: mating frenzies, territorial battles, mass pollination, and plenty of death along the way. The season of “new life” is really a bloody annual biological free-for-all.

Return guest Steve Johnson joins me this week for a wild conversation. Steve is one of the top elk callers and bear hunters that I know of, and as usual, he doesn't disappoint with his authentic and fearless honesty. In this episode, we go deep into bear baiting, scent control, elk calls, and even some culture stuff that's always fun to cover on the show. We talk about how technology has this tipping point when it comes to fair chase hunting, and the conundrum of who decides what that tipping point is. It's a solid conversation from a couple dudes who like to ponder the unanswerable questions. Don't miss this one! Steve on Instagram Show Sponsors!

Timber Cleghorn is a survivalist, family man, hunter, Christian, humanitarian aid worker, and the runner up contestant on the hit television series Alone, season 11. In this episode, Timber shares the process of being selected for the show, he talks about his childhood and what motivated him to apply. We discuss the hardships of his time spent alone in the Arctic Circle, what he did to survive for 83 days, and some of the behind the scenes details that typical viewership never gets to hear.

It takes extreme mental fortitude and skillsets that are outside most of our wheelhouses, which I think is why the show does so well.

If you love calling elk, don't miss this episode. I share the four unique calling techniques I use when traditional calling isn't working. We've all been there, the standard bugle or cow calls are just not working that day. Maybe it's the weather or whatever various factor has changed, but the elk that were bugling here yesterday are not bugling today. Try these calls, they have all worked for me in some way either for myself or while guiding. Practice these techniques before season so they are solid when you get there.

In this episode of Bigfoot Society, we explore a series of firsthand encounters that stretch across reservations, mountain ranges, highways, and deep forest corridors. Beginning on an Utah reservation, a witness reflects on childhood memories shaped by glowing red eyes in the trees and experiences that followed him into adulthood while patrolling the same land as a wildlife officer. Moving north into the Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho, late-night vocalizations echo through campgrounds and timbered slopes, leaving lasting impressions on those who heard them.The journey continues through Kentucky back roads near Rochester Dam, British Columbia highways near the border, remote stretches of California's Sierra Nevada, the dense interior of Algonquin Park in Ontario, and river bottoms along the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Each account is grounded in place, shaped by terrain, isolation, and moments when the woods felt aware and responsive.

Aron needs no introduction, he's been a leader in the hunting community for many years and I've always respected his fearless authenticity. In this episode, we not only touch on topics from gear to developing hunting skills to wilderness survival, we also find out on the internet that Aron supposedly died a few months ago, which was a shocking revelation for both of us.

I wanted to share with you guys how I have killed some great whitetail bucks, consistently, many years running. Not only have I done this, but my daughters kill great bucks every year and so do my hunting clients. The reason a whitetail mock scrape is so effective out West is because not many people bother to take the time to do it. However, since you're reading this and listening to the show, you're clearly interested in above average hunting results! Whitetail mock scrapes are the way. Listen in to learn how to easily take advantage of this super under-utilized strategy to knock down a monster whitetail buck on public land, in the mountains! jim.huntsman@eastmans.com Show Sponsors!

Meet Matt Schoeller, a Colorado bowhunter, business owner, Dad, Husband, and Caribou guide in Greenland! I came across a post of Matt's on Instagram and couldn't figure out how I didn't know him, and knew he would be a great fit on the show. In this episode, Matt talks to us about bowhunting as a lifestyle, getting permission to hunt from landowners, bowhunting antelope, a life altering hunt for caribou with his Dad and brother in Greenland, and how that materialized to him becoming a guide for Bowhunting Greenland Outfitting each year, taking clients out for caribou and musk ox. It was a fantastic discussion, I really enjoyed having him on the show. He's a wealth of information and inspirational bowhunter, I have a feeling you're all going to be hearing a lot of him in the future! Matt on Instagram Show Sponsors!

In Quick Shots with Jim, episode 2, I break down my strategy to utilize the crowds in high pressure units to my advantage. Due to where I guide, if the unit gets overly crowded, I don't have the luxery of taking my hunters to other units where we are not licensed to guide in. We have to work around the crowds, and thats exactly what we do. Learn how to get away from the vast numbers of weekend warrior hunters and thrive in even the most crowded units. Its not rocket science, but there are a few key things you can do to let those crowds work for you, not against you. jim.huntsman@eastmans.com Show Sponsors!

Tyler Johnson grew up on the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska. He's no stranger to brown bears and wild places. A little over a year ago, however, on a backcountry black bear hunt with his Dad, they surprised a bedded brown bear and she predictably came at them. In this episode, you're going to hear the full story of survival and ways you can prevent this from happening to you. I always find these kinds of stories to be super important for all of us. Tyler is an experienced outdoorsman, and his Dad a longtime veteran as an Alaskan game warden. Despite all this, they were even caught off guard in the Alaskan backcountry and somehow made it out alive. I personally tend to get a bit complacent in the griz country that I hunt, so this was an excellent reminder that no matter how comfortable we get in the mountains, these bears are there and extremely dangerous when spooked.
