Click on Voice Remover Settings button on AV Dubbing Panel to open Voice Remover dialog box.

This module removes sounds from the center of a stereo composition.  As a rule, drums also are centered, so for restoring them, low-pass filter is placed in parallel with the main algorithm.

- The High Pass filter will decide how much vocal is extracted. The more you move this slider to the right, the less voice is extracted. That means the more sound is removed. This parameter attacks most of the sound of a song.

- The Low Pass Filter has the opposite working way but its main benefit is reducing the noise. Usually after you adjust these parameter, the remaining of the music (which isn't processed) causes the noise to the song. So move this slider to the right to remove more noise and to the left to keep more sound.

You can create your own nickvoice. To do that, use Nickvoice Settings button. Once you press on it, choose Nickvoice and a Nickvoice Setup dialog box will appear.

- In Voice Morpher tab you will find 3 sliders:

1. Pitch slider is used to change the pitch parameters.

2. Timbre slider is used to change timbre parameters.

3. Advanced Tune slider is used to adjust timber parameters.

(*) Reset button allows you to reset all the sliders back to their initial positions.

- In Linear Phase Equalizer tab, you can enhance the sound quality by moving 10 Band boost/Cut sliders.

Here also you can see an Amplitude-frequency characteristic graph that displays how the input spectrum of the signal is modified.

Once the nickvoice is created, you can save it with a separate name. Just enter the name of the new nickvoice into the dialog box and then click OK.

Note: Also you can select Parody Manager from available celeb voices to imitate the voice of you favorite stars.

To do that, use Parody Manager module. There is a specific tutorial available for this module.

- For your convenience, a special panel designed with 9 nickvoice buttons on it is offered. You can assign a separate nickvoice to each button and then quickly switch between nickvoices just clicking on adequate buttons. This feature allows you to dub different characters by different voices.

- To assign a nickvoice, click on button by any of 1-9 buttons and choose a nickvoice from the drop-lists.
Besides, there are Voice Volume and Sound Volume sliders on AV Dubbing Panel. You can adjust the microphone volume (Voice Volume) and original volume of the movie (Sound Volume) by moving these sliders.

- When you are ready with all your settings just click on Record button. (If the opened movie was on pause it will start playing automatically).

- If you need to take a break, click on Pause button.

- Once you finish recording, click on Stop button to stop the process.

Note: The recording will stop automatically when the movie comes to an end.

- In case you want to listen to your recorded voice, click on Play button.

The last thing you need to do to get your dubbed movie is to click on Mix button and then on Merge button (if Auto checkboxes are switched off) and wait until Video Morpher combines all the necessary files.

- Now you can click on Settings button and then Explore button to get to the folder storing your dubbed movie. Enjoy the result!
