Audiobook Recording For Narrators and New Producers Using Avid Pro Tools

This is a guide to recording audiobooks with Avid Pro Tools for home recording narrators, and producers new to Pro Tools, using an enhanced version of the 'Fluff and Repeat' recording technique. This book is great for those who struggle with the dominant method of 'Punch and Roll' and those new to audiobook recording.

Intended for narrators, and producers, Rich takes the reader through the basics of home studio set-up for narrators, outlining the equipment required, and preparing the Pro Tools Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) for recording single voice audiobooks. The book is filled with information, and tips using the knowledge he has gained from over a decades worth of audiobook production.

Rich has been recording, and editing audiobooks for 18 years.

Before working with audiobooks, he cut his teeth recording music during the heady days of the reigning 4-Track Tascam cassette recorder (!), and the very early days of computer based digital recording.
In the early 2000's Rich found work as a producer, and editor for a library imprint audio publisher. This job brought him to the realisation that there was more to audio recording than recording music!

Armed with a few years-worth of experience and knowledge, Rich left this job to form his own audiobook production company Electric Breeze Audio Productions (Oxford UK) in 2010 with his wife Deborah as his business partner.

Electric Breeze has since been supplying both major, and indie publishers in the UK, US and Europe with audiobook production, including Penguin Random House, Hachette (and many of its imprints), Bloomsbury, Harper Collins, Saga Egmont (Denmark), Dreamscape Media (US), WF Howes, Chelsea Green (US), Audible (US) and many more. The company has also worked directly with numerous authors to produce high quality audiobook versions of their books.

Over this period Rich has welcomed into the studio, and worked with many fantastic UK based narrators, authors, A-List actors, TV, and sports personalities, broadsheet journalists, news anchors, comedians, doctors (medical, and PhDs), professors, well known TV historians and other academics. Being based in Oxford has been handy, and he pinches himself every day at having the privilege of working with these amazing people.
