Casual Voice Clips
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I need a batch of very short English voice recordings—each between 10 – 15 seconds—to for a text-to-speech model. Every clip should sound relaxed and conversational, delivered in a clear American accent with no background noise or processing effects.
To keep the data useful I’ll supply a small script of everyday phrases, but you’re welcome to improvise equivalent lines as long as the length and casual tone stay consistent. Please record in a quiet room and export each take as a separate WAV or high-quality MP3 (44.1 kHz, 16-bit). Label the files logically so they’re easy to track.
Deliverables
• A folder of individual 10-15 second audio files (aim for 5-10 distinct clips)
• A simple text list matching file names to the spoken line
Acceptance criteria
– Natural casual delivery, no formal diction
– Pronunciation matches a standard American accent
– Clean audio: no hiss, hum, or clipping
- Natural breathing/cadence in speech
If you already have a suitable mic setup and can turn this around quickly, let me know your timeframe and a sample clip so I can confirm audio quality before we proceed.
