Handy BPM calculator website
Here’s a handy website that I use every day when I’m producing radio jingles that need to match a certain BPM. Type in the BPM and you instantly get a break down of the milliseconds you’ll need to set your left and right echo channels to in order to match the beats exactly. This can help when creating radio sweepers and promos that require the echo effect to be on the beat of a music bed or song. I show you some possible uses in a video on my YouTube channel.

Audio processing for voice over
How to make your voice sound better in Adobe Audition. In this video I’ve revealed the secret processes I use to make my voice and those of other voice artists sound big and bold. It’s a matter of EQ, compression and normalization then you’re ready to go! This process works well if you’re making radio jingles but can also be good for podcast post production if you’re looking to add a little sparkle to your voice. Do you have a different process? Share it in the comments.
EQ will help to make your voice overs sound brighter and bolder by adding treble to the correct frequencies and ensuring there is not too much bass rumble a voice can cut across any music track. Compression will crush down a voice to be at the same amplitude level which can be handy when listening to audio on the move in a car or in a busy environment.
