PAID - $200 Looking for Two Voice Actresses

Script 1) Looking for a female American accent, clean and eloquent. Should be able to deliver lines in a dominant confident monotone.

Script 2) Looking for a bit of a swashbuckling pirate (female) character with a domineering personality, seeking a british accent for this.

actually....make that three. There's a third:

Script 3) Looking for someone to play a sexy bratty, selfish sorceress character. Going to be really picky about the accent/tone on this one though, and can provide more details.

Each script would be about 9-12 minutes of audio total, and each script pays $200 with options for renewal and further work. Everyone who knows me knows I am a purveyor of spicy not-safe-for-work romance content, so I'm looking for someone who doesn't blush at these sort of things. I certainly don't. If you're like me we will get along swimmingly! I pay promptly and pay 30% up front, and there will be opportunities for future work for talented people. Please audition only for roles you think you can emulate well because I am going to be picky about character target voice match even if the delivery is great.

Note: I have other scripts inspired by pop culture (so inquire if you want to audition for others as well), from science fiction to comic books to fantasy novels or more recently video games. Thanks! Please message me for details, if you already have my email address, I prefer email. thanks.

Shure SM7B + Focusrite Scarlett 2i2: Low Volume and Hissing Noise – Need Advice!

Hi everyone,

I’m having an issue with my Shure SM7B and Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 setup. Since the SM7B is a dynamic microphone, I’ve had to crank the gain up to around 55–60 dB on the Scarlett to get a usable signal. However, the volume is still too low, and I’m hearing a lot of hissing (that "shhh" noise) in my recordings.

I’ve seen a lot of advice online suggesting that a Cloudlifter or similar mic activator would make the signal louder, but some say it won’t necessarily fix the hissing issue. My home studio is small but very well isolated, so I don’t think background noise is the problem.

Has anyone else dealt with this? Do you think a Cloudlifter is the best solution, or is there something else I should try?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Help Choosing a Voice Recorder for University Lectures

Hi everyone!

I’m looking for advice on choosing a voice recorder to improve my setup for recording university lectures. I currently use my mobile phone, which works fairly well, but I think upgrading to a dedicated recorder could improve the audio quality, especially for transcription purposes (I plan to use Whisper AI for this).

My budget is $100–$120, and I’ve been considering a few options:

  1. Sony UX570: It seems like a solid choice with good reviews for lecture recording.
  2. Zoom H1n Essential: I’ve read it records in 32-bit float, which sounds appealing since lecture environments often have varying sound levels (street noise, classroom chatter, etc.). Additionally, I like that it can double as a USB microphone for my PC, which is a nice bonus.

Would the 32-bit float recording of the H1n Essential be a significant advantage in this use case? Are there any other recorders I should consider in this price range that would be better suited for lecture recordings and transcription?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Looking for a Male Voice A. for a Channel with 800k Subs

Hey everyone, I am looking for a long term voice actor that I can work with every week for my youtube channel with 800K subscribers.

This example has exactly the tone, emphasis and energy I was looking for:

I can't work with this artist because he is the artist of my competitor channel, so I am looking for a similar voice.

VO Demo advice.

Hi all,

I've been super keen on getting into this line of work for a long time. I have submitted a couple entries in the various freeVO reddits that are kicking around with a little success.

However, after doing a fair bit of research is pretty obvious that Demo reel's are a necessity to take it to that next level being paid work.

Though after watching countless videos and suggestions I haven't found any recent, (2024) reels on places like YouTube and stuff to kind of get a gauge of market trends and what the norm is in this space, aside from commercial ones I.E voice overs for hungry jacks or whatever.

So! with the obvious exception of combing through individual profiles I'd like to turn to my fellow VO artists.

If you've had success Via your demo and you feel comfortable, DROP A LINK TO YOUR DEMOS BELOW! Not only will this be a good place for people to share and potentially clients to pick up different Artists but it could also give all of us "budding enthusiasts" a place to look at different styles and types of demo reels which could greatly help us in taking the next step.

I Apologise if this is taken the wrong way, I'm merely trying to go about some research in an efficient manor.

I'm also more then happy for any comments or links with advice or places to look when it comes to creating and tailoring a Demo.

For context, I'm mostly interested in the fantasy character, cartoon, anime space. not so much the commercial advert space but will willingly look at anything.

I will also probably cross post this across the few other VA sub reddits.

Thanks!

[Hiring] Male Radio-Style Voice for Song Outro

I'm looking for a male voice with the cool, smooth tone you’d hear on a jazz or smooth jazz radio station to close out a track. This outro should capture that classic radio vibe and enhance the listening experience. I have an existing script, but I'm open to your creative take if you'd like to bring something new to it.

Details:

  • Script duration: Roughly 20 seconds or less
  • Payment: $25 via Venmo, PayPal, or Zelle
  • You would be a backup option. I have a primary lead, but I’ll hire you if he’s unavailable.
  • I would like 2-3 takes so I have options to choose from.

If you're interested, please send samples of your past work via DM.

Note: This is an independent project, not affiliated with any major labels. Thank you!
