What can I balance in Linus Studio?

In Linus Studio, you can adjust:

• reader volume
• your voice as the actor
• background audio
• ambience

What should I adjust first?

Start with the audio problem you notice most.

If the reader is overpowering you, lower Reader Volume.

If your voice is too quiet, increase Actor Voice.

If there is too much noise in the room, reduce Background Audio.

If the tape sounds too artificial after reducing background audio, add a little Ambience.

Important

Tap Apply after each change.

Then play the tape back from the start so you can hear what changed.
