lol for 200$ this guy share a settings for voiceover?
second part sounds like a normal voice recorded on different mic than on first part. you can make it just without any magic tricks. maybe just compression.
its a mic/pre-amp issue, not a magic secret settings

agree with alien bug
2 mics, or 2 takes from different distances.
expensive condenser mics make your voice phat like this when you speak right infront of the diaphragm it is called proximity effect and happens only in directional mics
why would people spend so much money buying good quality microphones if they could achieve this phat sound by just using some digital tools??? https://soundcloud.com/poisonritual

maybe not in this case but also good recording chains...even if it may not matter as much as the mic..your chain is as weak as it s weakest link..

a good colored pre for example can really help to get a more commercial sound ...same for the compressor used.
i dont have much experience in recording but i know some nevish kind of pre will make your voice sound more like a record.. bigger and almost "cheesy" , it just have a commercial sound some love some hate it..and it depend for what kind of music...just to say the preamp can make a subblte but still nice difference .
you realize it when you compare something like a rme preamp to something more high end one will make recordings closer to what you hear on the radio while the rme will sound nothing special and not very pleasant in comparaison.

in detail, its a rode NT2-A condenser mic and a echo audiofire 4 interface.
so you think that guy switched to a expensive mic and not only the emu1616 setting, and its all fake?

dunno mate ,could be processing? me was talking you more about voice you hear on radio on stuff like pop music than things like this.. it sound like commercial stuff , maybe look at what technics they use for commercials
i was looking on a french forum and they say same stuff that we said here, the choice of mic,mic position, the preamp and compressor then it s processing. what will matter a lot for this is the mic and the processing imo. have you tried enhancers,exciters stuff like this?might help, eq,reverb...

IMO he is just kiding users who haven`t knowledge about soundmixing, cause if you want to have an AB comparision to sound quality, he has to do it in the same loudness level. As you can see, the volume level is not the same. His super duppa settings are much louder then his voice before. He used a
psycho-accoustic trick (louder signals have more presence) to sell his presets to unknown users...!
There are some settings for creating good vocals in the studio:
1. Good singer (or speaker)
2. Good Mic (and yes,there are big differents between them. It`s not only the price....).
3. A good room (there are different oppinions about real silenced rooms and rooms with a good sound character)
4. Good preamps for the Mic
These 4 settings are realy fundamental for big voices. Eq`s, compressors,delays and exciters are only for the rest of 20% important.
The voiceover in radio is often done withthe Gate/Compressor Sidechaining Ducking method:

This guy doesnt have to switch on the microphone for $5000 for make this "commercial voice".
I've heard better sounding vocals of my friends, recorded at an average grade equipment.

^ This. If you want to compare two signals, you can only compare them at equal loudness.
I can't really tell any special effect from there besides EQ and compression (or some subtle distortion). It can also be heard that he has a very good voice and he used it in the second sample.

the absorbers dont do the trick.
i dont get that fat subbass to the voice because there is no... and i dont know where i can get information for this, google seems to get me wrong search results or i use the wrong tags.
sure this dude is a fraud, and sure u cant compare the levels, but its still the sound im looking for, for promotianal stuff like radio. i cant believe that the artists voice is the trick to this kind of quality and subbass. so it has to be the equipment, or the software. anyone get a close result?
the second sample i posted is quite distorted, but its also nice... crispy and bassy.
