Description

Producing a high-quality audiobook does not require a high-tech home studio, an expensive microphone, or an extensive knowledge of sound engineering. With the right guidance it can be a straightforward process, done on a low budget, and completed in the comfort of your own home. It can honestly be a lot of fun and a great learning experience too! I am going to show you the process from beginning to end, leaving no aspect a mystery. All you need is a computer, a good-quality USB microphone—which I will give you advice on—and a narrator, who will likely be you! But you use a good friend or relative with nice, clear voice!

So, let’s save some money, have some new experiences, and create a really professional sounding audiobook.
