How's your sound?
Dan Nachtrab once said to me, "If you want to roll with the big boys, you have to use big boy toys". Of course, he was drinking an Arrogant Bastard at the time as I recall, but I'm glad to say he doesn't embody that name. So, can your home studio hold its own against the best studios in New York or LA? If you're not sure, George Whittam of ElDorado Recording Services has generously offered to take a listen. Here's the info straight from him:
We'd like to offer you a FREE Valentine GIFT Are you concerned that the files you send off for auditions are sounding up to industry standards? If you'd benefit from a professional's objective opinion about your sound quality (not your performance), this offer is for you. For those who submit a sample recording to us by midnight Sunday February 14th, we'll schedule a 15 minute evaluation conducted personally by George Whittam with you on the phone, Skype, or send a detailed email (your choice). Here are the rules:
1- File must be 1 minute in length or less
2- File format is MP3 Mono 128kbps
3- Sample contains your voice, nothing else
4- Include 10 seconds of silence at the end so George can hear the noise floor in your recording
5- No noise reduction processing allowed, that's cheating!
6- Send it to info@eldorec.com with the subject line "My free Valentine gift"
7- In your email, be sure to include your name, address, preferred method of contact, schedule preferences, and don't forget to attach the file! Providing service to the voice-over community is the reason we exist, and we love to do it!
