Audiobook Proof Listening
You finished narrating an audiobook, sent it in, and what you dread happened: the client found a pronunciation error. Now you’re back in the booth for pickups—costing you time and money you hadn’t planned on. It happens to all of us because it’s difficult to proof our own work. That’s where I come in as a second set of ears to check every spoken word against the script.
I compare your finished audio to the script listening for:
-
Mispronunciations
-
Skipped, added, or repeated lines, including chapter/section titles
-
Inconsistencies in recurring elements
-
Wrong word substitutions
-
Misreads in numbers, dates, addresses, and data
-
Punctuation-driven meaning changes such as a missed question mark or run-together sentence that changes how a line lands
-
Audio issues such as clicks, breaths, and pops
