  5. Ok Annie, Here's my situation. I want to record some music cover videos to post on my Facebook acct. Currently I'm recording with my Oppo cell from my karaoke speaker setup and my voice is coming across a bit tinny is the best way to explain it. My iMovie does a good enough job with the video editing, but I really need to try to improve my audio track so I can sound as good as I can given my voice limitations. Any suggestions?
