Hey guys!
I've been really looking into audio processing recently, and I've tried many different audio processing settings and I'm still not quite happy with the result. So I turned to google to look for some EQ & compression guidelines but much of them were for male voices and also, I kind of consider my voice to be quite atypical so internet didn't help that much in me trying to achieve the perfect settings...
So I thought, it would be nice to have a thread about that on the forums if anybody has any tips for me or others on the quest for the perfect settings! :)

Your voice is ten times better and it sounds absolutely flawless with the set up you have, I wish mine was so good sounding like yours..

aaw thank you ^^ but I feel like it's not super consistent, sometimes it sounds a bit too nasal & snappy and other times not enough xD
But anyways, if you're wondering what I'm doing is I bumping up frequencies around 4kHz and 11kHz and then I'm adding a few dB around 200Hz, removing around 800Hz and adding again around 3kHz
And then compression & then a bit of hard limiter :)

No wonder why it sounds so sexy ;)...

I rarely do anything with my audio, I keep it like it is cos its easy, no hard work and quick to upload to YouTube. But I should start doing that too, just in case :D
