You might try simply singing and recording them a "guide track".

You can try muffling the fan or insulating the mic. get a blanket and drape it loosely over the laptop (don't put it right up on the fan area - the air needs to circulate) If you are reading your...

Hiya!
We all go unnoticed from time to time.

Hard to guess form the description, but it might also be the room you're recording in. Room tone can play a huge part in how the final sound comes out.

Test this (don't laugh) try recording...

No, no! Continue!
It is fascinating and cathartic from this side, too, to see what fuels certain attitudes.
Understanding is a good thing.

I do the same thing - forget to check.
:)
Welcome, though - and once you get involved, there's a lot more incentive to keep dropping by.

Yowtch - sounds like the space-time continuum is having a crisis.
Maybe your name is too normal? Too "I'm a spambot trying to sound like I come from this planet...."
:)
Anyway, keep in touch,...

Sounds like you have a good start, and clearly the drive needed to have a lot of fun doing this!

Welcome!!!

Hai! Don't be shy!
The more fun you have, the easier it will be!

Essentially an audition for producers, instead of actors. I couldn't find any better place to put this.
:)
What I am looking for: I have a number of "stock effects" to create for my upcoming...

hiya! welcome!
I'm sure there's people here who can help you get where you want to go!

Listening to a show you did lines for, only to hear someone else's voice in there.
Inquire of the director - "Huh, what?"
His response - "we decided to go another direction. But I have another...

Audacity DOES export to mp3s, but you might need a plugin. If you go to the Audacity site, and search for "LAME plugin" (yes, it's called LAME), it has a full set of instructions how to add the...

The blue snowball might still be on sale (around $65) at Amaxon. A lot of people seem to get good mileage out of those.

And, if money is an issue, audacity (being free) works perfectly well,...

Wow! Enthusiasm!
:)
Never lose that.

Welcome!

it's very simple to add music in audacity.
You can either use FILE:IMPORT:AUDIO (I believe), or do it the way i do it, which is:
---open the music in another window
---copy the bit you want ...

If you have just a little peaking, you can fix it a bit using a very light lowpass filter. Carefully.

You can also try (when about to do a screamy line), back a little bit off the mic (not too...

The big ingredients, I've found, are patience, persistence, and reliability. Your first episode isn't going to have a huge following, but you might, by the time you hit five or so (or ten, or 30, or...

The key is to keep trying, and ask for feedback whenever you can.
Learn everything you can.
Grow you will....

Wait... I sound like Yoda with syntax.
EEEEEEEEEEkkkk.

I try... I hate to just jump in (being relatively recent here myself), but i can't leave anyone un-greeted.

80% gut instinct. But I'm casting 30 episodes (say, almost 200 roles) a year (so far, anyway), so I don't have the luxury of a drawn out technique, and I loathe the audition process. Not that I...

Oh, I know!!!
As a producer, I'm always getting asked "how much money to you make doing that?" or "how much do you charge for your show?" or "Is that your REAL job?"
LOL.
