			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Just asked my dad (he's an editor). He said a windscreen might help, but what's probably happening is that your recording is becoming 'saturated' so you need to turn down the levels (not in post though, before recording) hope that helps in some way. Also I just looked at microphone on Wikipedia and scrolling down to the section about windscreens has got some interesting info.]]></content>

[quote=minifig051]Try yelling not as loud as you want to, but then bumping up the volume slider (you use Audacity, right?).[/quote]

Decreasing the volume after you record, or turning down down the intake volume on audacity doesn't help. It still have the odd somewhat buzzy sound, it's quieter, but still there.

[quote]But in my opinion yelling isn't so much about the volume but the tone of voice. Yelling makes your voice sound very different, of course, and so I imagine that's ANP's problem. Because or else I imagine he would just raise the volume in post.[/quote]

Exactly.
Yelling with lots of force sounds a lot different from just turning the volume up on fake yelling.

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Whenever you yell at your microphone loudly enough, or make any sort of really loud noise, the recording gets this annoying bad quality, kind buzzy sounding.
If you don't know what I mean, just yell at a mic, and play if back, you should hear it.

Now what I'm wanting is to avoid this. Often times in films I have parts where people are screaming extremely powerfully, or laughing like mad.
If I go away from the mic enough, the loud voice echoes awkwardly about the room. The further away I get, the more awkward and strange this echo sounds. By the time I'm far enough away for there to be no buzz, it sounds really pathetic.

Anyone have any ideas?]]></content>
