HERE'S A LITTLE ABOUT ME AND MY VOICE OVER EXPERIENCE
I've been at this for something over 30 years. Yeah I did my time in radio (13 years) back when radio was still 'fun'! Then I became a partner in a regional recording studio - that would be Boutwell Recording Studios in Birmingham, AL. We played together for over 10 years. Then I got the opportunity to do this freelance stuff exclusively.
I have the whole in-house studio thingy. I've been told by most everyone I've worked with that I have the cleanest sound they've gotten from an in-house ISDN.
Credits include: XM Satellite Radio, TD Ameritrade, AstraZeneca pharmaceuticals, ProFlowers.com, Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, Disney on Ice (multiple shows), Chevrolet, Toyota, Buick, NASA, US Army, USPS, lots of banks, lots of car dealers, lots of restaurants, lots more places and stuff than I remember.
I'm prompt. I'm available on short notice. I love to do this stuff. I take simple direction like "speak" very well.

Marty, God is good. I rejoice that He has seen you through this literal 'storm' and the circumstances it caused. Continue to draw near to Him, and He will draw near to you. I am slowly in my advanced years learning that God didn't promise that there…
Hi Darla. I use Sound Forge 9.0 which is essentially the same as your program. Did you record the audio at 48K or higher bit rate? If I record at that high quality SF plays the audio back like Alvin and Company. However, the audio is actually record…
