Quality Voice Over and Audio Production

Home voice over studios don’t have to be complicated to sound amazing. Unlike just 5 years ago, great technology can come in a compact package. I have trimmed down my primary system to something I can take on the road. It’s purposely built this way so when we DO (hint hint to my lovely wife) take off to Mexico for months on end, I have the same quality gear no matter where I am.

My booth is custom built to accomodate me. I’m a one man operation. With years of audio production under my belt, I provide perfectly edited audio to each of my clients.

And I’m not going to lie…. sometimes I like to unplug it all and go edit down at my local coffee shop.
MMMmmmm…… Mint Mocha.

 

PRIMARY STUDIO SETUP

Microphone: Sennheiser 416 MKH

Preamp: Apogee Duet

CPU: Macbook Pro (2011)

Software: Logic Pro

Custom Built Voiceover Booth

Monitors: Celestion Studio Monitors

Connect: ISDN (telos zephyr) | Source Connect  | Phone Patch

 

BACKUP STUDIO SETUP

Microphone: Electrovoice RE27

CPU: AMD Athlon PC

Software: Adobe Audition 3.0

 

Backup BACKUP STUDIO

I literally live 2 blocks away from some of the finest studios in western Canada. If on the odd chance my building sinks into the ocean or is levelled without my knowing, I’m still cool to record. I’ll need about 15 minutes warning.

Male Voice Talent - Dave Pettitt

Voice over talent and producers know that a vo job can be made or broken by the instincts and talents of the voice. For a professional quality sound, an actor must know, not only correct pronunciation, but dialects from across the country.

This site is full of examples of narration, e-learning flash samples, voice over jobs of all kinds. Dave is a unique talent in that he crosses a lot of boundaries. Naturally his voice is deep and resonant, but his ability to interpret the mood of voiceover scripts, commercial voiceover and medical voiceover jobs, brings a true level of professionalism in a world everyone thinks they should be a voice actor because they have a voice. Understanding the art means more than being a radio voice track talent and firing off a one take read. There’s a craft.

Dave also loves the character acting side of voice work. He would be please to demo voiceover scripts for most all projects. He has a been honored to perform as an anime voice actor for numerous cartoon voice overs, thousands of commercial voiceover projects and corporate narrations.

Dave is a committed talent working from his ISDN equipped studio with some of the best industry professionals across America and Canada. Auditions are always welcome.

Dave has also recently launched his Radio Imaging portfolio at Big Fat Image Voice .com. Some of those samples are featured here on DavePettitt.com as well. All the imaging demo videos were written and produced by Dave Pettitt. He has a creative knack for both voice and web.

Thank-you for visiting this site. I hope you’ve found some great examples of the style of voice work you’re looking for. For any other wanted voiceover or anything else, call, skype, email, contact Dave however you like and he’ll have audio auditions out to you within the day.

All the best
