I WORK IN THE VOICE OVER INDUSTRY AS A(N)
Voice Actor
HERE'S A LITTLE ABOUT ME AND MY VOICE OVER EXPERIENCE
I've been behind a microphone professionally since age fifteen. Many years at top stations on the west coast....full time voice over since the early eighties. I was one of the first guys to record at home.....a pioneer of much of the technology commonly used by talent today. I had the first VO website with streaming audio. I was the voice of Superman, and Reed Richards/Fantastic Four. I voiced the trailer for INTO THE WILD for Sean Penn. I've done promos for all the networks. I work primarily from my own studio on a mountaintop ranch in Ojai, CA, and from the pied a terre in Toluca Lake. I participate in native american cultural events around the country, and have two siberian huskies. I have one brown eye, and one green eye.

It was so great to meet so many of you! As I said, I don't get out much. It is rare that I am faced with people who actually want to hear my plentiful opinions about these things!
Here are the technical tools I mentioned. Mac OS X audio editor. Twisted Wave. http://www.twistedwave.com It's everything you need; nothing you don't. And, the IP software for Windows that I have been using for years is: AudioTX Communicator. It serves as an over IP transmission system, but I find it to be superior to Source-Connect. And, when used with an ISDN adapter, and an installed ISDN LINE, it will also REPLACE an ISDN codec, such as a Telos Zephyr or CDQ Prima. Or, you can use a bridge connection until the volume of your ISDN bookings justifies the cost of ISDN installation.
Dave Immer at Digifon provides bridging service for AudioTX and Source-Connect.....and he is a dealer for AudioTX, and can sell you a complete package, and help you through setup. THANK YOU for the opportunity to be of service! - Beau

Your career is still perkin'. I remember the young kid with the short hair on my stage reaching for characters. How is that for longevity?
Good for you.
I turned 70 today. I woke up last night to what I thought was an earthquake and it was only my ass falling.
When my balls drop, then I will be real competition for you.

I joined the VO-Universe yesterday, and just a few minutes ago, I also joined the "Tech talk" group. I think it said that you were the creator of the group, so, I wanted to drop in, introduce myself and say "Howdy!" You've sure got some great pipes and an EXTREMELY versatile delivery. Please feel free to stop in and say hi once in a while - I'd love to hear from ya. -Look forward to seeing you around the universe.
Thanks!
