Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to the most common questions about booking, rates and delivery at Voices.
What does voice-over mean?
- Voice-over is recording spoken text for media: ads, video, telephony, audiobooks or e-learning. A voice delivers the recording you edit or load onto your system.
What is the difference between voice-over and dubbing?
- Voice-over often sits over a picture, as narration or an explainer. Dubbing syncs dialogue to lip movement. Both are professional recording services.
How do I book voice-over after this?
- Pick a voice on Voices, listen to demos and upload your script. You see the rate before you pay.
How soon do I get the audio?
- Most recordings are ready within one working day. Add timing notes to your brief so the audio fits your edit.
Are revisions included?
- Revisions are free only when the voice actor made a mistake, such as a wrong word or pronunciation that does not match your script or brief. Script changes or new wishes after approval are not a revision: we quote those separately.
