Dear Aspiring Voice Over Artist,

When you’re getting started in voice over, it’s natural to feel overwhelmed by which audio gear to buy, which recording software to use, how to edit your files…

In short: how to set up a broadcast-quality home studio so you can make money with your voice. 
The good news is, it’s entirely possible for you to achieve an affordable home studio that produces professional-quality results. 

But there are a few common obstacles that get in the way for beginners. 

Maybe you’re stuck at square one wondering where you should set-up your studio and what equipment is essential. 

Or perhaps you’ve already invested in gear that you don’t know how to use. Some people never even take their gear out of the box because they’re so afraid! 

If the technology part of voice over fills you with dread, never fear – you’re in the right place!

No matter what level of experience you have with technology, in Home Studio 101, we take you by the hand and walk you through the entire process. 

No one gets lost or “left behind.” We make sure you’re confident about your space, your gear, and your audio.
 
No detail will be overlooked.

We’ve certified over 600 voice over artists in our home studio trainings — including students in their 80s and people who were feeling so  frustrated about learning home studio tech they cried. 

We’ve cured even the worst cases of technophobia.

Our instructor, Joe Smith, is a certified teacher and a Home Studio expert. He’s also extremely patient! 

He will look over your virtual shoulder and help you go from square one to recording broadcast quality audio from home in just 6 weeks.

This is important because your home studio is the foundation of everything you’ll do in voice over.

You must deliver broadcast-quality audio from day one.

Voice buyers can tell within one second whether your recording meets their standards.

If your gain is too low or your volume is too high, they delete your file and move on. They don’t go looking beyond that first impression hoping you’ve got a good voice.

What’s even more frustrating is they never provide feedback. You could spend months, even years, wondering “Why am I not booking anything?” 

And you’d never realize it’s because your audio quality is poor.

But here’s the good news: Because everything is digitized, there are standard “rules” that make it all work. 

And they’re easy to understand once you have the right person explain it to you.

Once they do, you’ll be fine! You’ll never worry about studio tech again. In fact, you’ll soon use it to your advantage. 

That’s why Home Studio 101 is hands-on. You won’t just be learning, you’ll be doing. With someone by your side to troubleshoot and answer your questions along the way. 

There’ll be “homework” but it’s the fun kind: using what you’re learning to record voice overs and use the tools! 

Joe will be listening to your audio, looking at pictures of your set-up, and analyzing your homework to make sure you’ve got it right.

We’ll walk you through every aspect of setting up and recording from your home studio, so you never get lost or left behind!

• How to Choose Your Home Studio Space: We help you choose the best place in your home to record (and what to avoid at all costs.) You’ll send us a photograph so Joe can analyze your space and give you personalized advice.

• We play detective and help you inspect the area so you can remove the elements secretly sabotaging your sound (including surprising things like the type of desk in the room, the artwork on the walls, and the windows around you!)
  You might think your space is quiet… but what we think of as quiet is actually a constant stream of noise. We’re always surrounded by noise. You’d be very surprised at what the mic is hearing. We’re going to teach you not only how to identify it, but how to get rid of it or bring it down to acceptable levels. 

• Recommended Gear List With Exclusive Discounts: You’ll get an A-Z list of our recommendations plus our exclusive direct discount at Full Compass Sound. We’ll help you avoid two costly mistakes: overspending on expensive mics that aren’t right for your voice, and falling for “$39 bargain mic” disasters that sound like karaoke. 
  We’ll also explain which accessories are optional and which are essential: headphones, shock mounts, pop filters, mic stands, interfaces. Get exactly what you need, and nothing you don’t.

• ​Recording Software 101: You’ll learn how to use the most popular recording software out there, Audacity. It’s free and super high-quality. We teach you how to download the right version for your mic and your computer, and how to use it to record great-sounding audio.
  This includes how to get rid of mouth noise, breaths, and background noise. You don’t want to sanitize it too much — you still want to sound human — but your mouth noises shouldn’t be audible or unusual. In this program, you’ll find out exactly how to deal with all of that.

• ​Home Studio Technique: Your sound needs to be tight, your voice front and center. It shouldn’t sound like your voice is bouncing around a tin can or like you’re eating the microphone. The sound needs to be very intimate, with no reflection and no echo at all. Microphone placement is the key, which we will teach you. 

• ​You’ll also understand gain and your noise floor: When you look at the recording software, with the waves and the peaks, they measure the gain. You want to be sure it’s not distorting, not too high and not too quiet. Your noise floor is the ambient sound of your room “breathing.” We teach you how to detect and fix both.

Audio File Review & Certification: You’ll submit an audio file for certification.   Joe will make sure:

• ​Your audio gear is correctly set up and working properly.

• ​There is no noticeable background noise.

• ​Your gain levels are in just the right range.

• ​Your noise floor is acceptable.

• ​Your audio file is correctly formatted.

• ​You’re ready to record a professional demo and submit broadcast-quality auditions.

Then, when your audio checks all the boxes, you’ll receive The Great Voice Audio Certification Seal Of Approval!

This lets your voice over clients know you have what it takes to deliver professional quality audio and a terrific finished product.

We’ve put over 600 people through this program and certified 98% of them. The only ones who didn’t get certified are the ones who didn’t participate. 

We make sure you don’t get lost, fall behind, or “fail.”

It May Look Scary And Difficult At First…

But with the right system and teacher, you’ll soon be producing your own audio like a seasoned pro. 
We’ve perfected this program and added even more in-depth training. 

The only way to have broadcast quality audio without wasting your time and money is to be Great Voice Home Studio Certified…

And the only way to get the Great Voice Home Studio Seal of Approval is with Home Studio 101! 

Then, you’ll be at a huge advantage. We really make it easy for you.

Your Investment

You’ve probably heard that voice over can be extremely lucrative, with some jobs paying hundreds, if not thousands of dollars. Voice talent can make as much as $1,200 for a one-hour e-learning program or $3,000 narrating an audio book. And it’s not uncommon to make $300, $500, $700, or more to narrate a corporate sales presentation.

Of course, your results may differ and I can’t guarantee that you’ll make any money at all. But I can guarantee the high quality of the comprehensive training you’ll receive.

I could make a well-reasoned case for pricing this program at $1,000, $2,000, even $3,000 or more. It’s that valuable an investment for someone who takes action on what they learn.

But because I want to make this program accessible to as many people as possible, your tuition is only $597.

We accept PayPal Pay Over Time.
