We’re in the studio and Rob is editing the chapter I recorded. We recorded a page and then had to go back and re-record because my voice is too low for consistency with the earlier chapters. I’ve been raising my narrator voice above my natural speaking pitch because there are a number of male characters in this and I needed the space at my bottom end.
The problem is that with this cold when I place my voice so that it feels like it’s at the same pitch as before, it’s noticeably lower. I had to listen to a recording and try to match that, just on sound rather than on muscle feel. On the plus side, the male voices are much easier.
