American Female Audiobook Narrator Needed
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I’m ready to take my 55,000-word manuscript straight to Audible and need a real, seasoned American female narrator to be the voice of the project. The finished audio must arrive fully edited and mastered so it clears ACX’s technical gatekeepers on the first review—clean noise floor, consistent RMS, proper peak levels, corrected breaths, and chapter-accurate formatting. I’ll be uploading immediately once I approve the files, so I’m counting on you to deliver retail-ready audio, not raw takes.
To be considered, send:
• A link or attachment to past narration work that shows your natural voice (no synthetic, AI, or outsourced reads).
• A realistic timeline from contract start to final mastered delivery.
• Your all-in quote for completion, including any pickups needed to meet ACX acceptance.
Acceptance criteria
• WAV or 192 kbps MP3 files, one per finished chapter, labelled to ACX specs.
• RMS between –23 dBFS and –18 dBFS, peaks no higher than –3 dBFS, noise floor below –60 dBFS.
• Final run-time within the expected range for 55k words (roughly 5–6 hours) with consistent pacing.
I’m working directly with the narrator, so please respond only if you’ll be handling the recording, editing, and mastering yourself. I look forward to hearing your voice samples and timeline.
