The Edge Studio Feedback Forum is the best place for you to post a recording and get feedback from the community! Record in your home studio, upload the file, and see what people think. 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!

Hi Sherry! Nice reads! I especially like your flow on Exedrin and Crayola. Overall, clear tone and committed style on all. Six Flags could be even more WOW!. In Six Flags, watch out for your regional accent coming out on “adventure” as it sounded more like “ad-vin-ture.” On Crayola, you can soften the “r”s just a touch! Keep it up! Awesome job! /Greta

Hi folks! I’m seeking feedback on these 3 commercial reads – specifically style, tone, and believability – as well as audio quality and sound treatment of my studio. Testing out some new equipment! Should I do any minor effects like normalizing or condensing? Thanks as always for your time! /Greta

Hi greta,
Only listened to the first one. Sound is good.
There was some silence at the beginning, and I thought something was wrong with the file or my computer.
It sounds like you are reading. Get some acting in to it. At the beginning, when you are in trouble, let’s hear your frustration.
And then it dawns on you that you have this solution. Let’s hear that light bulb “ding” the first time you say it, like you did way at the end (which was pretty good, btw).
You have a great voice, and wish you success! -

More feedback please! haha. I’m stuck with this read on a certain intonation and pace, and it doesn’t sound quite right to me, would love any ideas :).

Hey Adrianna,
Beautiful, natural tone. Your pacing is also great and relaxed which is spot on for this specific read. However, I noticed that you tend to fall off or fall a bit flat a bit towards the end of your sentences. Figure out what message needs to be communicated through the copy and which words, per sentence, highlight that message. For example, in your opening sentence, I would use a stronger infliction on “with opportunities to learn and thrive” since this is one of the key messages.
Also, in the second sentence, when you mention “with his skills and her talents,” I believe this would be a spot cutting to a scene of a boy and then a girl? – maybe try switching your tone to show the transition/comparison of subject.
Hope this helps 🙂

This is my third attempt as the site is being weird, I’m posting but don’t see the post after the fact; apologies if it looks like I’m spamming.
Got some more homework. I’m working on slowing down and sounding more conversational which is tricky when you’re a fast talker. 😉
For comparison, I’m including a second recording of the last script at my ‘normal speed.’

Hey Vern,
It sounded as if you had a different tone for each performance – I hope that was your intent. The volume was very low so I could barely hear you. It sounded as if there was a consistent hum in the mic and your voice sounded a bit slurred. The noise factor skewed your performance. So I look forward to hearing more.

Hello Everyone! I am looking for some sound quality and editing feedback please and thank you in advance! The script is as follows, and the edits that I did on the read were: Removed breaths, removed spaces, removed plosives, and added a little speed to it. Please let me know what you think.

Hey, You have a very clear and smooth voice. I’ll agree with Bev, an increased tempo would make it sound more conversational. In the second performance, I could hear your deep inhale, I guess that’s not a big deal, since they can be deleted from the recording. As we’re instructed, choose the person you’re talking to and why you’re telling them this information, to create that believable conversation. Love your voice, keep posting.
