Setting up a soundboard — also known as a mixing board or mix console — can be intimidating. There are many settings and knobs, and multiple ports for input and output. Once you include your digital audio workstation, or DAW, into the mix it can feel overwhelming. Thankfully, it’s a much more streamlined process than it appears. Setting up a deep voice soundboard is quick and easy, provided you have the right equipment and don’t mind experimenting with your specific software. 

This article will help you determine what you need so that you can jump right into working on your projects, and with our massive library of royalty-free stock music and sound effects, you’ll be able to create content in no time.

Making Your Recorded Voice Sound Deep

When you think of the host of your favorite podcast or your local radio station, you’ll mostly recall deep, rich voices that draw your attention and pull you in. That’s known as a broadcasting voice, and it used to be standard for broadcasters to try and deepen their voices as much as possible to reach those levels. While it’s now considered more important to have an even, conversational tone, people still strive for the comforting sounds of a deep, rich voice.

Everyone wants to sound good when recording themselves, but people usually have a strange reaction to hearing their voice. Most people don’t like the sound of themselves because there’s a difference in the way we hear ourselves versus the way others hear us and how we sound on recordings. When your vocal cords vibrate, the vibrations travel through the bone and muscle in your head and give a false sense of bass. 

This change in how you perceive your voice can be distracting, irritating, and difficult to look past when listening to the recordings of yourself. Your soundboard and digital audio workspace can help you achieve your goals whether you want to match what you hear in your head, give yourself a deeper voice than you have, or give yourself a deeper voice for some laughs in a chatroom.

It’s Not Just About the Soundboard

Picking the right soundboard is important, but it’s not the only important aspect of creating quality recordings. In addition to a quality soundboard, you will also need:

Connectors, adapters, and cables might seem like a good place to save a few dollars — it’s not! The quality of the rest of your setup won’t matter if the cables and connectors carrying the signal transmit poor-quality recordings.

Microphones and Accessories for Deep Voice Recording  

Arguably the most important part of recording a deep voice is using a quality microphone. Microphones come in all shapes and sizes, but they can mostly be broken down into two categories: condenser microphones and dynamic microphones. There are also some accessories you’ll want to make sure you have to get the best recordings possible, but let’s start with some microphones perfect for a deep voice.

These aren’t the only microphones recommended for recording a deep voice, but they’re great places to start in the condenser and dynamic categories. Once you have a microphone selected, you’ll want to make sure to get a few accessories to make your recording as clean as possible.

Soundboards for Deep Voice Recording

There are three kinds of soundboards you’ll likely see when searching for a new audio mixer: 

While analog and digital soundboards are the most widely used, downloadable soundboards are becoming more popular in the today’s digital world.    

Choosing a Deep Voice Soundboard

All of the soundboards listed above are capable of mixing audio and creating the right blend for a deep voice. Ultimately, the deciding factor in choosing the right soundboard will come down to what you want to record and how much is your budget. While you can choose whichever soundboard fits your budget, make sure to pair it with a high-quality microphone and accessories for perfect signal transmission through your soundboard. 

If you’re a streamer, podcaster, or voice actor looking to enhance and modulate your voice, an application soundboard will do almost everything you need. Especially with a selection of music and sound effects readily available, you’ll be all set to start recording. 

If you’re a vocal artist, either solo or part of a band, analog and digital soundboards are more than equipped to handle a deep voice and will provide you with that extra oomph when mixing multiple live audio signals.

If you’re planning to capture vocals only, you can even skip the soundboard and use an audio interface to connect your microphone straight to your computer. If you’re planning to incorporate other live signals into your recording, you would do best getting one of the types of soundboards mentioned above. 

Setting Up a Deep Voice Soundboard 

If you choose to go with an analog or digital soundboard, setting it up should be simple. Follow the instructions provided with your system to get the most out of your soundboard. The input section is made up of separate channels, each with a set of inputs labeled on the front or back of the board and controls on the front of the board. The usual controls you’ll find on a soundboard are:

These are the basic components you’ll find on most soundboards and because each soundboard is different and will respond differently depending on what is sent to the input, there aren’t any hard-and-fast rules for these settings. Depending on what you have plugged into the input for a channel, you’ll need to adjust these settings to find a sound that suits you best. For recording deep voices, you may want to experiment with extra gain initially and turn your low-frequency EQ knob further toward its limit. 

DAWs for Deep Voice Recording

The last piece of equipment you’ll need is a DAW. DAWs are powerful programs that convert analog audio from one of the interfaces mentioned above into a digital file that can be processed on a computer. The audio information displays digitally on your screen as sonic waveforms or musical notation and can be manipulated using a DAW software program. A DAW lets you stack multiple tracks — vocal, musical, or both — and cut and paste them similar to words in a document. This allows you to cut, edit, paste, and isolate full tracks or the smallest portions of audio files and organize them as you see fit. 

DAWs can also help with more advanced post-production mastering and editing and offer a wide selection of functionality:

DAWs are great for editing any audio file, whether it’s a musical track or a three-hour-long podcast. DAWs allow you to eliminate any bits and pieces you don’t want to use as well as enhance the audio quality of your tracks. 

Most DAWs on the market today offer similar benefits and features. Research a few, and pick one that works with your preferred operating system. After you stick with it for some time, you’ll eventually get the hang of it.

Set-Up of a Recording Space With a Deep Voice Soundboard

Now that you have everything you’ll need and a general idea of how to use it to best capture a deep voice, it’s almost time to record. Before you do so, take a moment to make sure your recording space is set up in a way that encourages you to create. If you are familiar with how to set up a video editing desk, setting up an audio recording and editing space would be a piece of cake. If you aren’t familiar with it, no need to worry. 

You’ll want your editing and recording space to feel comfortable and inviting because you’ll be spending a lot of time there. Also, make sure that you follow some of these tips to enhance your experience:
