Critiques of my internet stream elements

[joebtsflk1]

Is this a good forum to invite critiques about the liners we use in our streaming website, www.TheRenegadeRoadhouse.co ?

If so, I can post a representative sample of them on YouTube and comments can be made there.

thanks

Yes. I'll try to have a listen later today.

But it would be more convenient if you made a compilation of the liners on a Youtube, as you suggested.

I'll post back here when I have the post on YouTube ready to go....

after a bit of delay, here's that link to the liner collection:

Just listened to the liners.
The first 2 or 3 with voice need a closer microphone placement to the person speaking, so the
room ambience will not show up so much, and also to make the voice stand out more clearly from the mixed audio.

I liked the last one with the motorcycle run-by, but think there must be a better reverb effect or setting that sounds
"more believable".

Generally I notice too much room ambience in some of them.

The content and delivery were pretty good, nothing I could criticize there.

The female voice being annoyed at the male voice and telling it that it's annoying is good.

I don't know why it took so long for your reply to post on my side...I just kept seeing my name as the last post. So, again sorry on the slow reply on my part.

No, I'd be the first to admit the sound quality for my voicers could be improved. But I'm just using the mic on the computer thus it's not as rich and full as it could be. I'm counting on Sound Forge and (hopefully) good backgrounds to counter voicers that are a little thin.

I am partial to my female voice talent. She works for free, and even though making her sound human is twice as hard as me just voicing the copy she sounds pretty good.

My biggest concern is that the liners don't irritate listeners and cause tune-out.
