This is a great place to get some advice on your technique, on your home studio, or to ask for people’s opinion on your reads. Remember, that this is a community forum, so please remain positive and encourage your peers in helpful ways. If Edge Studio feels that a user is too negative, or antagonizing other members of the community, they will have their posts deleted, and risk being banned from further communication. 

Stay positive, listen to each other, and have fun!

Hey all! This is my first set of recordings after getting my new voice booth set up, so I’m eager for feedback on how things sound. From my point of view, they sound a lot better, but I would appreciate an outside perspective.

Very good performance. Practice pacing, in case a client tells you to speed up the commercial read(s).

Good Morning Everyone. This is so exciting. I am fairly new to the forum and would love to receive some feedback on my recordings from my fellow peers, Your opinions mean a lot to me and will not be taken in vain. I chose two different spots. One soft and the other more upbeat. Thank you so much in advance.

I hardly ever do the girly thing. I don’t go around thinking I look beautiful, but I think I am beautiful.
I like my skin to be soft. So, I wash with DOVE. I’m happy with my skin and my life.

Good reads on both. You sound as if you were connected to the copies. Good pace and tone.

[Gill]

You did a great job on both of these reads. I liked the way you made both reads your own.Your pace is good and your flow is smooth. Your voice gives the scripts richness and energy. Nice job!

[mmyers24]

Thank you so much for taking the time to listen to my reads and for the beautiful feedback. I truly appreciate it.

Hi everyone! I recently began commercial coaching with edge. This is my first crack with the home studio. Any feedback would be helpful. Thanks!

dear ierxyzz – technically – your home studio recording sounds clean and at good volume. Your McD read is wonderful – sounds just like people speak in conversation – you are a natural! Diction in a couple of spots can be helped by slowing down with tough words or phrasing like arabica beans . . .keep us the good work – this is really good work! You did not seem as “connected” in the Crocker spot . . .from the words, sounds more like an ad voiced by a motherly sounding woman. Find another spot that supports your voice and style. Lance

[SuperLuke]

Good job with this performance. I hear honest enthusiasm in your voice, especially at the end.
Keep up the good work!

[mmyers24]

Hi ierxyzz, I enjoyed your reads, especially the McDonalds, it was fun, great tempo and flowed all the way through from beginning to end. You have a great voice.

[Lauren A]

Hello everyone! This is my first time posting. I’ve just started coaching in narration, and part of my homework is to post here. I would appreciate some feedback!

Hi Lauren. I enjoyed all of your reads. It almost sounded like different people. I thought your pace and tone was very good. I heard a few pauses that could have been shorter but you did really well with the non-english words. Your energy was good all the way through.

[mmyers24]

Hi Lauren, You have such a great voice. I enjoyed all three of your reads. Cosmos was my favorite because I love the feeling you put into it all throughout. It flowed nicely. Just watch out for some of the words getting lost in the airy whispering parts if that makes sense. (I too am working on this). Sanjo was great as well, I loved the flow when you first started, however I noticed that you sped up a little towards the middle but overall it was a really good read. I enjoyed all three. Nice work!

[Lauren A]

Thank you so much for your feedback!

[Andrea]

Hi everyone,

I’m working on my narration demo and on accent reduction, aiming for SAE. It would be awesome if you could listen to this piece and tell me what you think my home state is. Any feedback on performance is greatly appreciated as well 🙂

The script is for a short video about beavers.

Thank you!

Lumberjack, surveyor, builder, engineer. It’s all in a day’s work for a b****r. They’ve got the tools and the know-how to create a brand new ecosystem – one log at a time. When they build, everyone shares the reward. A b****r pond is a wildlife magnet. It’s the place to find a mate and raise a family; to hunt; or to fight for survival. In the centre of the action, the engineer keeps the whole thing running. Building a dam, that’s just part of the job. These guys will face down predators, voyage into the unknown, and battle the full force of nature. All to create their little slice of paradise.

Thanks for your feedback, SuperLuke. Much appreciated!

Hello everyone! Just looking to get some creative feedback on these two pieces. I am not working from a professional studio, so NO technical feedback, please. Thank you!

Hi Nisha, nice! I liked both of your reads, especially Nature’s Recyclers. I could feel the energy in your voice. In Motivation-Meditation, I liked how you varied the tempo, but I think you went a bit too high in pitch after “As you feel scared.” You could take out the pauses before “akin to” and “so far” and maybe you could make the last sentence sound friendlier.

[rustylj63]

Hi Nisha,
I liked both of your reads. Your tempo is good and your voice is, for the most part, clear and sharp. There were a couple of words in “Nature’s Recyclers” that I think got muddled a little, but both reads sounded good!

[rustylj63]

Because its been a couple of weeks since I’ve posted here I thought I’d drop a couple more recordings for y’all to beat me up with. Please disregard any background noise or echo, I’m not in my studio. Thanks!

Hi rustylj, I think your voice is great for both pieces, but I feel like you’re a bit too serious in both, especially in Hungary’s Food Scene. Maybe try to add a smile and see if that lightens up the tone a bit? Imagine that you’re talking to a friend and telling them a fun fact about Hungary.

[rustylj63]

Hey folks, it’s been a minute but thought I’d throw this up for some of your awesome feedback.

Thanks!
