Expand postI am a publisher and we are looking to break into audiobooks. we are looking at doing a combination of payment up front and then % of sales . We would like to have multiple readers and already have a wealth of interested parties on the vo end, as well as authors. But I have talked to several sound guys who say that it is impossible to do this from remote locations. I am not technically savvy enough, but it seems to me that if you had a set standard of equipment and settings, then that shouldn't be a problem. Any thoughts? Anyone who would be interested in such an arrangement? What down payment would you consider reasonable? What percentage of sales?
I'm a pro, and my room sounds great. I maintain that with a little care, you can get great sound in most any situation. Obviously if your room is made of concrete or if you live next to a train track...
Expand commentI'm a pro, and my room sounds great. I maintain that with a little care, you can get great sound in most any situation. Obviously if your room is made of concrete or if you live next to a train track or a subway line, there could be some challenges, but if you surround yourself with absorptive material and you have a reasonable mic, you can get good sound. You don't need a $5000 mic or a $3000 preamp. You can get decent sound with a portable recorder like a Zoom or even a iPhone with an audio interface like the Alesis. That doesn't mean you will, but you can. At least I can.
That's right Bob. I once used a 3" Radio Shack speaker for a mic along with a hair dryer to get a killer jet effect!
HA HA. Very ingenious my friend.
The Reflexion Filter is great. I use it in an iso booth. No worries.
Anyone that's interested - Tara Tyler and Amy Ulrich are GREAT people to network with on this topic :)
Cool episode of the Punky Pets that I did the sound editing on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2E5fNSP4QWo
