I'm using sound forge 6 and I need to make some songs sound like an old (60's) AM radio for a student movie. Could anyone offer some guidance? Thanks, Gopher Message last edited on10/24/2006 3:06:31 PM byGopher77. |

The technique known as "Worldizing" works for me and many when called upon to But without specifics, (transistor radio? Car radio, ect.??? ) we can't tell you how to go about it. |

Try a shelving HPF around 50Hz and LPF around 8KHz. Sony Track EQ (bands 1 and 4), 24dB/8ve geoff |

In addition to what Scott said, try playing around with the "center frequency" (bring it up a bit) and "band width" (bring it down a bit) settings in the Parametric EQ. Also try adding just a touch of distortion (via the Distortion effect) afterward. Iacobus Message last edited on10/25/2006 11:24:41 AM byIacobus. |

try the free "vinyl" plugin from Izotope. It's meant to sound like damaged LPs but some of its effects are pretty AM like. |
