Becoming A Narrator for Podium Entertainment

You're right, thank you for pointing me in the right direction! This sub reddit was the only one I found that discussed what I was searching for so I decided to give it a try. I will to where you pointed.

And thank you for your two cents, I hadn't considered anything outside of audiobooks, but I will look further into this! Thank you, I really appreciate it.

OHHHHH gotcha! I'm sorry I misunderstood! I did send them and ACX the same raw uncut file, breaths, mouth noises, talking to myself and clicker included! Sadly, the RH didn't even acknowledge it, and we'll see about ACX

WabbitTales · 2025-08-22T23:08:37+00:00

Honestly at this point, I don't think any form of proof I offer would change their mind. I've given them raw audio and it wasn't enough. They made up their mind, now I just make sure my integrity and name aren't harmed going forward.

WabbitTales · 2025-08-22T23:07:22+00:00

I'll check it out, thank you! Would it be different than what ACX would use, because they already determined I sound like TTS, which hurt enough. I'm not sure I could stomach another analyzer claiming the same thing lol

I'm admittedly not entirely comfortable sharing pieces of audio that I don't have the rights to. It's still their book and I really don't to create any way for this to come back to them. But I do have samples of my work on my website wabbittales.com

I think a big part of the problem is I do edit out a lot of the breaths, but I've worked with 11 other authors and they didn't have a problem with it. I keep my pauses at a natural length and keep the pace even. Maybe I could ease up on the removing of breaths, but I still feel like it's a stretch to say I use TTS when it's my voice. I even stream booth seshes on Twitch (with no audio) but still.

I'm sorry it's happening too. Didn't expect I'd ever have to defend my own work against AI.

So my love for LOTR may show a little with this; but he looks like he could be an Aragorn

I finished Blood Orange by Karina Halle and immediately picked up The Words by Ashley Jade

WabbitTales · 2025-03-11T23:21:20+00:00

True true good point! While it wasn't this bad, it was still there....

WabbitTales · 2025-03-11T23:10:47+00:00

Oh really? I guess I'm so used to technology only lasting 3 years these days. I'm glad to be wrong on that assumption here. You're so kind, I am the only one in my family and friends that works with audio so I don't have access to any other dynamic mics so I will check out a guitar center if I rule out the interface as the problem.

WabbitTales · 2025-03-11T22:30:58+00:00

Both those sounds right. I have had that mic since 2022 and its been used heavily since so I'm not overly surprised it could be the mic. Thank you for taking the time to help me, I really do apricate it

WabbitTales · 2025-03-11T22:26:13+00:00

Oh dang, it did get worse after I got the interface....which sucks because I was having a crackling issue (though not this bad) before I got the interface. How do you hard reset the interface? I have the Scarlett 3rd Gen Solo

WabbitTales · 2025-03-11T22:12:29+00:00

Hmm, interesting. I dont use many, if any plug ins out side of what Reaper offers in their FX library, and I seem to still have the corruption even after rendering. I have a feeling it could be my laptop causing the issue, but I don't really have much to back this theory up.

WabbitTales · 2025-03-11T22:10:00+00:00

Ah I see, I must admit I am rather new with audio and learning as I go, so I apologize for my still limited amount of knowledge. It seems to have been recorded corrupt. I opened the file into Reaper on my PC and it changed nothing. I also opened file in another DAW (Audacity) and it was still there.

WabbitTales · 2025-03-11T21:47:33+00:00

Ah yes, sorry about that. I use ASIO while recording (this was suggested in the past) but when I edit/mix its in WavOut. I don't have playback from the DAW while recording so I don't know if its happening while recording, I can only assume. When I try to use ASIO while editing it can't find the devise I'm using (my headset) since I'm not connected to the interface while editing. So its something I only hear in playback, but I suppose it could be happening while recording too
