Will my audio pass QC muster?
Hello! I have a booking for a project to record 40 minutes of finished audio, and I want to make sure- before spending hours of labor time in production- that the finished audio will not be rejected by the QC department. I submitted a sample to the client earlier today, and they specifically requested a quieter noise floor. So, in the interest of accommodating that request, I have produced a new sample using the Studio One "noise floor" Expander plugin. I also removed the 4 second pauses by simply trimming the audio from those spaces, and I normalized to -3db, and adjusted the peaks to get rid of hot spots.
I would be most thankful for any feedback I can get on the subject of how to master the audio so that I can satisfy the client's request while at the same time making sure the finished work will pass the standards the Voicebunny QC department will have.
Thanks a million!

Thanks Geena! 🐰
I truly hope these pointers/advices have helped you out some as it is my pleasure to aid fellow Pros. I too have suffered the pains of trying to solve my problems and answer my questions all alone, wishing someone had at least half of the solution to share with me. Now I get to be part of the solution 🤓
Let me know how this goes and if you like the Reaper flow! I wanna make more vids on how it can be the ideal tool for VO pros and a silver bullet of sorts for us.
Happy weekend and awesome productions!
Hi Geena!
Just a quick follow-up post here; how has your recording being going? Hopefully, everything is working as it's supposed to. Feel free to come back to this thread any time you want some extra help or if you'd like to geek out talking about ways to improve your setup, I'd love to help!
Have a great week!
Hey Héctor! Sorry for delay responding. It's crazy times! Anyway, YES, I would really like to geek out some more with you. I feel I almost have the hang of it, but want to make sure I'm getting it right with the Reaper part of the process and maybe have you review a more recent sample and let me know if it's the best it could be, or if I may be missing something. Thanks SO MUCH for the follow up!
Have a great one!
