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!

Good evening!
I will take any feedback you all would like to provide, however my main focus is actually on the technical. I’m trying out my equipment and sound proofing so would love some help on that front (and still learning my DAW so I know I have a lot of work to do!)
Thank you in advance

Hello, I listened to your recording and I could not hear anything wrong technically. I am by no means an expert on this, but based on my little experience, it seems fine to me.

Shelly, very nice. Very crisp and clear with no plosives and a quality sound booth. Your Esses were clear as well. Your DAW sounds good to me, although an actual engineer may hear things differently.
Be sure to edit out the mouse clicks at the end. -

Hello everyone! I’m very new to the VO world and would love to have some feedback on my work! My setup isn’t great at the moment (I’m using a blue snowball and do have an echo because of the large room) but I’m looking into investing soon.
Any and all feedback is appreciated! I pulled this script from the script library on Edge. It’s the “Making Candy” script. Thank you!

Hello, the echo is most prominent. What I did with my studio pace which was very inexpensive, I used moving blankets. I bougut them from U-Haul for $10.00 each and covered my walls. I lowered my ceiling to 7 feet and covered it also with moving blankets. I have a complete padded space, that is totally dead. works fine for me.

Hi all. Just posting here my submission to the last script reading contest. I’ve read through all of the overall feedback provided for everyone, but am having trouble picking out where I’m going wrong. Looking for some really brutally honest feedback here as to what I can do to make this better. Thanks for your help T.

Hi Toque!
First off, wanted to say you have a very nice voice! It sounds so professional and like it’d fit right at home with the material you worked with.
For me, it sounded a little fast and samey throughout tonal-wise. I wasn’t able to distinctly see the different products in my head before you gave us the next one, so I was a little confused on which features went with what price. I think giving each product a slight variation in tone might help set them apart easier if speed can’t be sacrificed (i’m not sure if you had a strict 15 second rule for the contest). That way it feels like you’re giving each product the attention it deserves, and ergo, you’re giving the consumer a way to separate them in their head and process the information easier.
I’m not sure if that’s the feedback you were looking for, but overall an amazing read!

Hello! Was doing some video recording for work, and thought I’d record some VO for feedback! So here’s some snippets about my day job (or what would be my day job if Hollywood wasn’t so screwy at the moment…). Thoughts, comments, and such much appreciated! (Just on the words, not the audio quality. Just going off a Yeti in my open apartment.)

Good Morning Suzanne!
Your enunciation is very good! There are times when you lose a T but otherwise, it’s pretty clear what words you’re saying. You also have a pleasant, friendly tone that is nice to listen to.
I would say the first five seconds of “colorist” is a bit fast, but really I think these are some good reads. Awesome job!

Hi all. It’s been a while. I am still working on my audiobook reads. I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks.

You definitely have a knack for this style. To get nit-picky because it’s fun to have something to work on, I’d challenge you to vary your phrasing and play with combining phrases into a single breathe. It isn’t choppy but I think you have space to smooth out and elongate some sentences. Also your pronunciation of the word “hand” stuck out to me twice. I don’t have the vocabulary to tell you exactly why, maybe the vowel is brighter/more nasal than the the rest of the read? Perhaps worth paying attention to.

Hello! I am looking for feedback on these two commercial reads and would greatly appreciate any thoughts you may have. Thank you so much!

Talia, great job. Very fluent and well-paced delivery. Don’t try to be too perfect, especially with the Crayola read, unless you are specifically asked to. Let your humanity shine through a little. Also, be mindful of your plosives. There’s normally an indicator of the front of your mic. Try to set it more obliquely to the direction of your speaking and, of course, use a pop shield.
Again, great job!

Hi all, I’ve uploaded another practice script. I have been working on clarity and sounding more conversational rather than reading. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Uploading a new practice recording. Appreciate any feedback on how it feels to you all! Thanks for your time!
-
Hi Krista. I love your voice..very clear and your pronunciation of the words and your pace is great. I would work on making it conversational. Who are you talking to about New York and Hudson Yard?

Hi to all. Submitting two practice scripts. Any feedback will be appreciated (text included):
Leadership
Many people quickly assume that being a good leader means you’re a good manager and vice versa. The two concepts are actually quite distinct, and understanding that distinction can help you understand what it means to be good at either or good at both.
Leadership is setting the tone of an organization; the broad objectives and long term goals will come from the leader, and then managers need to execute on a plan to attain them. Leadership is not necessarily getting caught up in all the details, but rather setting the plan and inspiring people to follow them.-
Hi there, this script felt as though you were reading rather than sharing information. I do like your tone and the pace in which you read a script is wonderful.

The Singularity
We are the masters of our planet. And for 200,000 years our intelligence has allowed us to rule unchallenged. But those days are drawing to a close. A new intelligence is rising … Artificial Intelligence. Our greatest scientists are on the verge of creating machines capable of independent thought. With intellects that could one day surpass our own. A singular event that will dramatically change life as we know it. What would a world dominated by super intelligent machines be like for us? Paradise? Or a nightmare?! Will it mean immortality … or extinction? One thing we do know. The process has already begun. The Singularity is near. And there’s no turning back.-
ScottCarr I loved this read! Your pace was great. It was as if you were sharing this important information directly to me. Great job!
