HIII happy weekend, everyone!!!

this has been on my mind for a while and instead of constantly wondering and agonising over what the right choice is, i'll just ask you guys!!

i know it's a bit of a read, but it's really important to me so i'd really appreciate if you could read over it so i can explain exactly what i'm talking about ^^ i put so so much care into my audios and i really want to make sure you love what you hear, even down to the smallest tiniestttttt little details <3

OK SO a big part of cleaning my audio is removing "ambient" background noise (the "sound" of a quiet room, if that makes sense! you'll hear it if you record silence on your phone's voice recorder and listen back to it, it's a quiet fuzz kinda sound!) and i wonder if you guys prefer a room tone, like a slight white noise in the audio instead of complete silence?

i know the room tone can be distracting to some but i also don't want to ruin immersion with silence? sometimes the setting of the audio takes place in a house/apartment/hotel room, etc and in these environments, it's not possible to add in further ambience like i would if it took place outside, in a car, etc.

there are pauses in my audios sometimes (y'know, for immersion, so i'm not just constantly rapidfire talking.. unless u want that? i'll add that as an option just in case) so i want to know how you prefer for those to be filled, if you prefer for them to be filled!

i'm also open to constructive feedback in the comments!

thank u so so so much for helping me improve your experience!!! super grateful that ur here :D

You always put a ton of hard work into your performances! I honestly never really notice either dead silence or you taking too long to read a line. I know it’s different because you’re constantly editing your own performances over and over, especially regarding sound design. But you have nothing to worry about. Your sound design works. You should take your time saying your lines; it’s a narrative mixed with sexy noises. Speed-running dialogue while mixing in Glucks, I think, would lose the appeal of your character work! You’re doing great, Rina. Don’t worry! Same with ASMR audios your sound design has popped off for those as well!

i definitely over-analyse the tiny details during the editing process 😅 this was super reassuring, thank u!!!

The fact that it feels like a movie does not take away from the enjoyment. I think the work that goes into this is well worth it.

I absolutely love the way your audios are currently recorded! The silence combined with ANC headphones makes it sound like you're in the room with me. I get chills 🤤 But also open to anything new you want to try!
