About Caesar

Caesar Esturco is a sound engineer and sound designer, and he narrates and produces audiobooks too. He teaches the technical side of the job, so tech stops being the thing holding you back.

That means your recording chain, treating your room, editing and mastering, and delivering files that pass spec the first time. If your audio is what's holding your auditions back, Caesar is the one to see.

He also works on duet and multi-cast audiobooks, and he co-hosted our duet and multi-cast training with Anthony and narrator Rebecca Heddinger, on how two separate studios end up sounding like one book.

"Ear training takes time. But, more to the point, ear training takes making mistakes. First, DON'T PANIC. We all go through this phase."Caesar, answering a member in the VO Journey Discord

What to expect

The tech class, once a month

The tech class runs one Tuesday a month at 8pm ET, and it's recorded. Bring your questions about mics, interfaces, room treatment and editing.

Between classes, Caesar answers members in the #processing channel of the VO Journey Discord. Post a raw recording and he'll tell you what your gain, mic position or plugin chain needs. His usual starting order for a voice over chain: a highpass filter, a de-clicker, a de-noiser, an expander, corrective EQ, compression, additive EQ, a de-esser, then loudness normalization and a limiter to hit ACX spec.

Before you buy anything, this is the class to come to. Caesar will tell you what's worth buying and what isn't, so you don't waste money.
