Comment créer une voix off à l'aide d'un logiciel de montage vidéo

Many videos require voice commentaries. Educational clips, how-tos, game walkthroughs, video blogs - all are typically produced with use of voice over software. There are various solutions to record your voice and add it to the footage. In fact, there are even 3-rd party tools for voice recording and processing audio on a professional level. Those are used in professional audio recording studios, for example. Yet, some video editors also have embedded tools for recording voice commentaries. VSDC Video Editor is one of them.

There are two ways to use VSDC as a voice over software. The first one belongs to the free version of VSDC video editor, and the second - a more advanced way - is available in VSDC Pro version. Below we'll take a close look at both ways, and explain how you can make use of the audio recording feature for your videos.

In both cases you'll need a microphone which is either embedded or connected to your computer. The biggest difference between the two, is the sequence of steps required from a user:

• In VSDC free version, you can create an audio commentary using an embedded Voice Recorder. Once you record an audio piece, you'll be able to add it to you project and apply to the required video fragment.
• In VSDC Pro version, you'll use a Voice Over software feature. That means, the voice recording is carried out along with the video preview in one and the same window. It allows for adding audio comments at required parts of the movie easier and more precisely.

Method #1. How to use VSDC as a free voice over software

• Open the editor, go to the ‘Tool’ tab and select ‘Voice Recorder’

  

• If you need the audio to be recorded in a prticular format, first you should choose it. VSDC voice recorded offers a lot of popular audio formats such as MP3, AAC, WAV and etc.

  

• Second, select the audio device you're going to use for recording.

  

• If necessary, you can check the option to split your recordings by their duration or by size.

  

• To start recording your voice, click the corresponding button.

  

• When your voice comments are ready, go to your project and add the audio files to the timeline - precisely where it needs to be added.

  

Method #2 How to use VSDC Pro as a more advanced voice over software

• Add your video where you want to add your voice.

• Click the ‘More Tool’ button on the panel above the scene and select ‘Voice Over’.

  

• Preview the video and decide where you’d like to add your comments.
• Move the cursor to the moment of the video where the recording is supposed to start.

• Click the ‘Start Recording’ button.

  

• Record your voice using the microphone.

• At the end of recording click ‘Stop recording’.

  

• Click on the ‘Playlist’ button to see the list of recordings.

  

• Close the voice over window.

• Your recording will appear on the timeline automatically.

  

Even though both ways help you get the job done, VSDC Pro version makes a more precise voice over software, saving your time and effort. So, if audio recording is not a one time job, but rather a regular task you 'll have to deal with frequently, you should probably consider it as a more convenient tool.
