ACLVB: From 140 voices to a warm welcome

A temporary, rough recording — often recorded by the director, editor, or the client themselves — that serves as a timing reference for the final voice actor.

The scratch track is not final audio. It is used to finalise the animation or edit before the real voice-over arrives.

A voice-over project without a paid media buy-out. Think of corporate films, e-learning, internal presentations or organic social media.

"Unpaid" in our price list does not mean "free". It means there is no media buy attached to it; the voice actor is simply paid for the recording work.

A pickup is a small re-recording of a specific part of your script, for example, because the text has changed or a name needs to be pronounced differently.

How does it work with us?

Thanks to your personal vault at Voices.be, arranging pickups is very simple:

• Consistency: We use the same voice actor and the same studio settings, so the new sentence blends seamlessly with the rest.
• Speed: You don't have to restart the entire project.
• Cost-saving: For a small text change or an error after the retake period, we normally charge a flat rate of €75. For larger changes, the voice actor decides on the rate.

This ensures your communication always stays up-to-date without having to start from scratch every time.

A Buy-out is the fee you pay for the right to use a voice recording for a specific period and a specific medium (e.g. Radio, TV or Online).

How does it work at Voices.be?

For our telephony messages, we use a unique model:

• Unlimited use: For telephony, you pay a one-off fee and may continue to use the recording on your exchange indefinitely.
• Transparency: No complicated annual renewals for your voicemail.

For commercials (Radio/TV), the buy-out depends on the reach and duration. Our price calculator calculates this for you immediately, so you are never faced with surprises.
