Over time, of course, the overall meaning of &#8216;quality voice&#8217; has become somewhat ambiguous. The upheaval brought about by the fast-changing and constantly-developing information technology revolution has impacted every aspect of our daily lives. It&#8217;s also impacted both our interpretation and expectation of the term &#8216;quality&#8217;. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What goes out on air gets data-compressed in some way \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/MP3\">Mp3<\/a>&#8216;s for example. This means a &#8216;quality voice&#8217; in broadcasting is no longer a specific or technical benchmark. Nevertheless, most <a href=\"https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/voice123\/why-you-should-hire-a-professional-voice-actor\/\">professional voice actors<\/a> understand &#8216;quality voice&#8217; to mean audio recordings that compare favorably with commercial recordings of the highest technical standard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So what does the &#8216;highest technical standard&#8217; mean to you as a client? What if you really have no interest in technicalities or technical jargon? After all, you want a recording that sounds good by industry standards. So, it doesn&#8217;t matter whether the voice over goes out via streaming video services, or via podcasts, radio, or television. The maxim applies: if it sounds good, it is good \u2014 right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, kind of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is a quality voice<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"quality voice\" class=\"wp-image-26976 lazyload\" width=\"444\" height=\"296\" sizes=\"(max-width: 444px) 100vw, 444px\" data-src=\"https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/podcast-room-2022-07-22-20-19-33-utc-500x333.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/podcast-room-2022-07-22-20-19-33-utc-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/podcast-room-2022-07-22-20-19-33-utc-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/podcast-room-2022-07-22-20-19-33-utc-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/podcast-room-2022-07-22-20-19-33-utc-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/podcast-room-2022-07-22-20-19-33-utc-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to know whether the recording you received from a voice actor is a quality voice, ask yourself these questions as you listen to the recording:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Does the voice over sound clear, as opposed to muffled and indistinct?<\/li><li>Is it noise-free? i.e, can you hear an electrical buzz or a hissing sound in the background? <\/li><li>Are there environmental sounds like people talking or dogs barking? <\/li><li>Does the sound make you think the voice actor recorded it in a bathroom because it sounds reverberant and echoey?<\/li><li>Is there any distortion?<\/li><li>Does the recording flow seamlessly or can you hear editing points where the voice actor removed mistakes or breathing sounds like plosives?<\/li><li>Is it loud enough, or do you have to crank up the volume to hear the speaker?<\/li><li>Is it nice to listen to?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Although &#8216;nice to listen to&#8217; may seem ridiculously subjective, it&#8217;s an important distinction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Simply put, if your audience can\u2019t hear the voice over well or it grates on their nerves, they simply won\u2019t engage with your message. If you&#8217;re in the business of selling a product or service, that&#8217;s the very worst thing that can happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to a study by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techsmith.com\">TechSmith<\/a>, 25% of respondents watched a video to the end because it had good quality audio. However, a different study by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\">Statista<\/a>, suggests that at least 33% of people will abandon a video within seconds because of poor quality audio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lesson? Never underestimate the power of great quality audio. Remember your company\u2019s message and <a href=\"https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/voice123\/a-brand-voice-why-having-one-is-important\/\">brand voice<\/a> will lose impact because of a poor quality voice over. Then your target audience and current customers are likely to start looking for what they need from your competitors. Your brand image will take a hit because it comes across as uncaring and unprofessional. Both of which your brands is not. So, in the long-run it&#8217;s a much better option to invest in a high quality voice over.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Always use a professional voice actor<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"quality voice\" class=\"wp-image-26979 lazyload\" width=\"363\" height=\"204\" sizes=\"(max-width: 363px) 100vw, 363px\" data-src=\"https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/close-up-talking-on-microphone-2021-08-29-05-49-55-utc-500x281.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/close-up-talking-on-microphone-2021-08-29-05-49-55-utc-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/close-up-talking-on-microphone-2021-08-29-05-49-55-utc-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/close-up-talking-on-microphone-2021-08-29-05-49-55-utc-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/close-up-talking-on-microphone-2021-08-29-05-49-55-utc-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/voice123.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/close-up-talking-on-microphone-2021-08-29-05-49-55-utc-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As an online voice-casting platform, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.voice123.com\/search\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.voice123.com\">Voice123<\/a> hosts some of the finest voice actors in the world.
