Voices and Music

Mix your own & hear how you can sound.

Have a fiddle

The voice-overs we normally use can cover most brand styles between them. The same goes for the music tracks too. Below are a few examples for you to listen to. Have a go at mixing and matching the voices and music together, and see if you can 'hear' your company's on-hold marketing being delivered in a similar way. Don't worry if you can't imagine it - see our sections below on Voices, Music and Scripts. Plus our Examples page contains audio demonstrations to put all this in context.

The music tracks above are short, low quality loops with moments of distortion for copyright purposes.

Voices

The voices in the above Voice & Music Mixer are some of the ones we use the most. Between them, they're great at covering a wide range of business types and styles. If however you have somebody else in mind or want us to find another voice, then just let us know. Initially we ask you to pick the voice(s) you'd like in your production, but if you prefer we can choose them for you. One voice is included in the Base Package, however we find that alternating between a male and a female voice throughout the script strengthens the audio brand image we create for you (an example of this is in the 'Branding' section of the Examples page). All the voiceovers we use are already doing work for national TV and radio clients, so you may even recognise them.

Music & SFX

The music from our libraries are not only of the highest quality, but also included free in your quote and copyright safe (you don't need to worry about renewal fees or PPL / PRS licenses). However if you're dead set on having a well-known piece, we'll investigate, source and quote accordingly. Again, as with the voices, you can initially pick the music track(s) you think would create the right impression for your business, but we can do that for you if you prefer. We may even suggest sound-effects (included free) which could enhance your message - who knows, maybe the sound of a dog barking or kids playing is just what you need?!

Scripts

The best way to generate a script is to let you lead the way. We can provide a scripting template for you to use while writing your own prompts (each being a couple of sentences that produce a single section of information), or just include bullet-points that we'll turn into a finished script. Most of our scripting team also have years of experience writing radio commercials for clients in competitive market places. These skills are greatly transferable to the job of tweaking or writing a powerful and creative script for your on-hold marketing. Depending on the amount you order, the script will become a series of prompts, that'll be interspersed with gaps for times when just music is heard. Click here to see example prompt lengths.
