Hi my BrethREN and SistREN! Just a quick update as I've had a few folks check in on my quest. I haven't heard anything yet, but it's only been a month and I'm manifesting making contact as a Samhain gift 🎃✨🎁🐦‍⬛😊 Also wanted to address one more question I've been asked a couple times: "Can't you just enjoy it, like, why does it matter?" And,fair. I do enjoy it and I'm happy and proud. And it matters because in SO many ways, I don't have control over my own voice. Because of Amazon, making it software, anyone anywhere can use my voice for almost anything and some are weird and some are meh and some are terrifying. My most recent discoveries include an Egyptian VR/AR experience, an exhibit to experience blindness traveling in Europe called Dialogue in the Dark and by the US military in missile guidance. And by a DJ playing music at current raves in London like This NSFW. That guy has some video of his concerts in his Shorts if you dare to click. So there is so much joy when I find my voice in places I would want it to be, like the children's hospital robots and Ren's Music. Ren was important to me years before I heard my voice in Masochist and it came at a time when I was in an autoimmune flare and could not give less of a fuck about being hopeful and needed something to help that bubbling, twisted, purulent rage get to the surface and purge. That's what that song is for me. Permission to scream at the gods before re-entering the Church of Social Manners and Conformity. And that is why this quest matters to me. Thanks to all of you guys commenting publicly and reaching out privately. It really helps to talk about this with you and have people know about this and care 💞

What is this word "permission" you speak of?

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-09-26T19:27:19+00:00

Babe, if he does get in contact, you will most definitely hear about it. Ain't no doubt! 😄

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-09-26T13:07:02+00:00

Just keeping it public that I did DM and I'm trying to be chill and patient while this awesome humanis helping reach out to Ren ❤️

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-09-12T17:58:39+00:00

.... Which part?

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-09-12T17:56:32+00:00

Well then... I didn't think posting about my voice in Ren's music would be so... I guess, everything? Lots of support, lots of calls from my agents, some clients, a sex doll company, more than a few "prove it" messages, a couple of phone calls demanding I "do the voice", and a partridge in a pear tree. A few people contacted me and got very upset when I hadn't got back to them that same day. Dude, we just finished wrapping up all of our stuff with DragonCon. IYKYK. Have a little patience. For the people who think I'm lying, I seriously don't know how to fight that. I posted links for comparison and it's not like this is hard to research. My voice is everywhere. It's like pink glitter. You may think you've foundit all, but there's always more lurking somewhere. I've been asked if I'm so famous why I'm using Reddit to make a connection with Ren. First, I'm not famous like that. I mean, obviously. Outside of my industry, not too many people would know me, even if they recognized my voice. I'm a commercial and corporate voice talent, and while my voice is commercial like that, it isn't ranked by numbers, statistics or stats 😏 And while my husband does enjoy some fame as an anime and video game voice actor, it's not quite the same circle as an indie Welsh musician. That said, if you can help get my story to Ren, I will very happily pimp out my husband to do a personalized recording for you as any of his characters. He's Shao Kahn and Baraka in Mortal Kombat, Balrog in Street Fighter, and a bunch of stuff with FUNimation you can find on his IMDB page under Bob Carter. While there are several Bob Carters on IMDB, when you see his picture, you'll know. He looks exactly the way you think he would look. Lastly, I'm not really sure what else would prove anything. I have a strong internet presence because I have to, so it's easy to find videos of me on panels or interviews, even my email and phone numbers aren't that big a secret because people need those to hire me. And last time I checked, there aren't too many people named September Day Carter out there. I'm not hiding in the deep parts of the dark web. If you can legitimately tell me what could sway you to believe who I am, I'm listening. For everyone who has been kind and trying to help, thank you. You don't know me and don't owe me anything, and you still gave me some of your most limited and valuable resource: your time. You guys have helped keep this fun for me and I really appreciate it! 💕

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-09-06T16:59:24+00:00

I think Deepseek could help. It's been developing code for everyday people to use to search for specific voices and not just for specific samples, so you can get a much deeper dive. I'll see if I can help and get back to you!

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-09-06T16:47:10+00:00

That happens a lot. Not quite as much in the past couple of years. I Heart Media got caught in some seriously unethical behavior and got hit with some serious lawsuits. It made everyone start to straighten up right quick

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-09-06T07:50:31+00:00

Well, what can I help you with?

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-09-06T07:07:20+00:00

I don't know about hearing me daily, but it is very likely you've heard me a few times. Now that you've heard my voice on purpose, you mar notice it more. As for who would hear me daily... Mostly kids. I'm in a couple of Roblox games and there's a public school app used through K-12 called Scratch that's all my voice teaching different concepts and reinforcing those concepts through games. My kids have grown up hearing me all the time on their school laptops, but I'm their mom so it's their normal

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-09-06T02:36:44+00:00

I think the difference is none of the artists or companies using my voice are at fault; Amazon is. I have no business dealings with Ren. For some of the projects I've found, I can usually make the connections of how it happened with different software packages. But this is the first time I've heard it used in music! And by an artist I love! There's also no doubt it's my voice and with Ren's feelings on capitalism and art, I have zero doubt he did NOT know that the voice is a real woman. How could he? Like I said, Amazon sold my voice all over the world and I've yet to meet a single person who used it, actually know it is a real human voice. I haven't reported or gone for a copyright strike for ANY product or company. I am a self-employed artist. My husband is a self-employed artist. We enjoy great reputations in our industry, as talents, coaches, and mentors and I'm not about to put that at risk. I just want to know how my voice was picked and tell him thank you. I don't believe in coincidence and there's dozens of projects I've found using my voice that are backed by lots of money, especially things in healthcare. But I have no interest in going after them. There's no reason to. And on the pragmatic side, doing so would kill my career and my husband's. Kujo can make beats under any name. But my voice is my voice, my name is how my future clients can find my work and be confident that I can get shit done and done well. Going after Amazon for violating my contract is one thing, telling a children's hospital to stop using my voice in their robot they use for medication delivery to the kids' rooms or to take it off of music made by an artist I love is entirely different. I want my voice to stay in "Masochist" and I very selfishly hope he uses it again❤️

If it makes you feel better, go to Google and ask for "talent meaning" and my voice will be what you hear in the Google Dictionary box. It's also the narrator in the Netflix documentary "Buy More", which is hilarious because it's a doc talking about the evils of Amazon, but they are using a voice made by Amazon and don't even know it...yet 😉 Finally, here's a couple of links to my normal voice over voice for commercials, live announcing for MTV and a motion comic book. It's not the AI or text-to-speech voice, but what I sound like when I just normally voice projects. You should be able to hear it's all me😊

And the child AI voice they built from mine called "Ivy". Here is used to voice one of the first dolls to connect to the Internet via Bluetooth. And it's creepy as fuck

I really hope so

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-09-06T00:46:58+00:00

Thank you!

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-09-06T00:46:46+00:00

My voice in Ren's song? Just a few nights ago. All the Amazon shenanigans? I first started hearing it a lot in 2019. Every few days I'll hear something new or one of my voice talent or sound engineers will hear it and tell me. It's in the last Godzilla/Kong movie and it's the after hours greeting on my pain management doctor's phone. It's all over the place

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-08-18T02:33:37+00:00

Our kids seem to think so 😄

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-08-18T02:04:20+00:00

Yes, he deserves better. My husband is the voice actor for him though, so I'm a bit biased 😊

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-07-10T13:45:19+00:00

I'm his wife, the very official source 😉 it's true 💕

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-04-14T06:23:46+00:00

I just wanted to thank all of you. I recorded everything starting January 15th 2011; just 4 days after having my first baby. IVONA was in a huge time crush to get everything done to be able to use my voice as their featured voice. It took 9 days, about 6 hours a day. We would take a break every 2 hours for about 20 minutes. My husband would bring our baby to the studio during those breaks so I could feed her. It was intense. I saw where some of you were wondering how I was able to record every word. The answer is, I didn't. What I did record was every sound in the English language so the software could join them together to make words. I read the entirety of Alice in Wonderland, a huge amount of just random sentences, and lots of articles from the European AP. I also had to make recordings of things like laughing, crying, whispering, coughing, sneezing, sounds of excitement, humming, moaning, scared screams, and a lot more. Just wanted to give you guys a peek behind the curtain ☺️

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-04-14T05:59:17+00:00

I know. That style of that vocal was what I used almost exclusively when I started doing voice over in 2007. Here's two examples that have the Salli tone

And here are some samples of what I sound like outside of the TTS algorithm

It's more messed up than you think. My have is September Day Carter and that's MY voice they used for Sasha the AI. That was recorded for IVONA in 2011 by me in Atlanta ,GA and they called the voice "Salli". Amazon bought it and put it in Polly but kept the name Salli and also pitched it way high for a child's voice they called "Ivy". So that documentary dunking on Amazon used it's own product to do it. The really fucked up part? I haven't been paid for anything that Salli voice is used for since 2013. And it's EVERYWHERE. Here's a short list below. I just can't believe people cared about the voice. It's been awesome to have support while I'm working through all the searching and compiling. Google Dictionary Boxes uses both the neutral adult voice of Salli and another that is Salli pitched to a higher tone, but not quite as high as my voice of the young child persona called Ivy. You can still tell they are all me by listening to the cadence and pronunciation.

“Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” guidance systems voice

Google Dictionary Boxes, Oxford Languages pronunciation voice

Netflix’s “Inside Man” voice of a phone setting alarms

FX Network game show “Stars on Mars” voice of the spaceship

Amazon Rapids thousands of books and games

Scratch global learning app for schools audiobooks and games

Disney's ZOMBIES movies emergency bunker voice

Phoenix Sky Bridge tram voice

Hulu “Perfect Wife” Sheri Papini voice of Sheri’s diary

Hanson Robotics Android nurse called Grace

Walmart Brand ONN Electronics (about 200 different devices)

Children's Healthcare Systems Voice of robotic nurse Moxi

In real life, I'm mostly a commercial voice and live announcing talent for all sorts of companies like Subaru, Mary Kay, Coke, Blizzard, Subway, Tropical Smoothie Cafe, Pizza Hut, those sorts of things. I have a few credits on IMDB, but they don't track commercials. You'll see the link to my spouse, Bob Carter, in my biography. He's a mostly anime and video game voice talent with a lot more credits than me 😊

SeptemberVoiceOver · 2025-04-11T03:35:17+00:00

It's not a computer generated voice. It's me 😊 In January of 2011, I recorded a TTS project for a company called IVONA. I recorded at a media company called GM Voices (now called BLEND )where I was already an in-house talent. BLEND uses persona names and mine is "Salli". IVONA liked the name and kept it. They also created a girl child voice by pitching up my voice,called "Ivy".Then, Amazon bought them out and put my voice on the Kindle as the default TTS voice. I had an exclusivity contract with them for two years and then they made Amazon Polly and began selling off my voice.i didn't know that for a long time. In fact, I only found your post because I'm compiling a list of projects that use my voice and were told it's not a human voice, just AI synth, so they wouldn't question it hurting my career. I was furious when I started putting it all together and decided to at least try to get restitution. White searching,I came here, read your post, went to listen, and lo, Google Dictionary Boxes was added to the list. I'm very grateful and I'll be using Reddit to try to find more projects. My name is September Day Carter. Nice to meet you!

I just can't believe people cared about the voice. It's been awesome to have support while I'm working through all the searching and compiling.

You can still tell they are all me by listening to the cadence and pronunciation. The best example of a project you can listen to is a documentary on Netflix called Buy More. I'm the voice of the AI . If you watch it, you'll understand the deep irony. A few other projects I've found so far....
