When you order a voice recording, you also need to order permission to use the recording how you want to use it. These permissions are called "rights." I offer some rights for free, others for a fee. Whether you need to purchase rights simply depends on how you want to use the recording.

I deliver my recordings as mixed and mastered mp3 files. When ordering, you can also request a mixed and mastered wav file, or a raw (dry) wav file for your own mixing and mastering. If you need another filetype, simply let me know what you need and I should be able to accommodate. Audiobooks For audiobooks, I provided mp3 files mixed and mastered to meet ACX standards .

I have an American accent. My general accent is Midwestern, very close to Standard American Broadcasting English. My voice works great for recordings where you want no regionalism in the voice. My voice also reads as Mid-Atlantic or simply "generic American English." I don't record other accents than my own.

Q: Do you do precision timing? For example, synching to video, dubbing, or recordings that are exactly 60 seconds?

Precision timing is whenever I have to meet certain time constraints in my recording. Examples of precision timing include: synching my voice to a video dubbing my voice over another person's voice recording to a specific time length (like 15 seconds, 30 seconds, exactly 53 seconds, etc.) recording within scripted timestamps Precision timing takes a bit more time and work to record and deliver, so I offer it at a higher rate than for standard recording.

Q: What is your Pronunciation Policy?

When you send pronunciations for unusual words , names , or abbreviations/acronyms , you really speed up my delivery time! Here are some recommended ways to send me any unusual pronunciations: Send me an audio file of the correct pronunciation (BEST OPTION!) Send a link to a YouTube video with the correct pronunciation Send a link to an online dictionary entry, like from merriam-webster.com Write out what what any words rhyme with (not recommended) Write out the pronunciation phonetically (not recommended) If you don't provide pronunciation guidance, and if after deliver I need to change my pronunciation, that counts as a modification. See my Modification Policy (above) for details.

Q: Do you offer live directed sessions?

Live directed sessions are when I patch you into my recording studio, and you can direct me live as I record for you. Subject to scheduling and for an additional fee, I can provide live directed sessions over the Chrome web browser.
