as long as you keep the quality of the original recording as 44.1, you should be fine when you change the format to mp3 and e-mail. it's really easy. and the beauty of it all, you change revert it back to wav and get the quality back if needed. i use audacity on my mac, but on my pc i use cool edit pro.

What I wondered was how one imagines this idea set up. 'Cos basically I'd think you'd need a site where everybody has a profile with a voice sample and contact information. Then you could check for the voices you're looking for and contact the person asking for a quote.

Maybe this can be integrated into indie game jobs?

Yeah that was actually the kind of thing I had imagined.

Just wanted to say that converting a WAV to MP3 and then back to WAV does not make the "quality" come back. The original WAV before the MP3 is the "quality" version. When you convert it to MP3 you are losing most of the data and a lot of quality goes out the window. There's no such thing as a good sounding quality MP3.....only different steps of reduced quality. Once that info is gone it's gone forever, so converting it back to WAV doesn't make it magically sound better. It's called padding.

Of course, perhaps the magic word in your quote is "revert," but that's only applicable within a single editing session.

i know the quality doesnt come back, but the program that i use CEP, allows you to further edit the audio, and bump up the quality back to 44.1 if you needed to do so. i have done it several times, and the difference from the original audio is minor.

the concept of the audio streams especially with voices in my experience, there are tons of programs out there that can give you quality audio. its knowing how to manipulate the streams for your specific need. i produce music and play in a band, and the tracks i have to e-mail the band leader before shows, are originally high quality wavs, in 32 bit, dat format, so having to drop down to an mp3 does lose some quality, but with the proper tools and a good ear, you can still make your audio sound awesome, mp3 or not. this idea here is a great one for the community. so if anyone needs any voice acting, pm me for my e-mail addy, and send me a script or just some plain dialogue for sound bytes. whatever you need, i am game.

i am still willing to help with this idea. maybe someone should put up a free website where you can send mp3's or ogg's and the voices can be posted.
