About Me
Hi! My name is Marina Martin and I’m the voice of Vox Gratia. I’m a native English speaker from London, with a background in academia (History) and broadcasting journalism, having trained and worked in radio and TV (BBC World Service and Bloomberg TV). I have a warm, clear voice and am capable of expressing a broad range of tones and energies so that I can deliver performances spanning the soothing and mellow to the dynamic and authoritative.
I have lived in many parts of the globe in the course of my work and strive to bring this cosmopolitan outlook to my work. My goal is to raise the profile and accessibility of Christian works by producing high quality audio material.
EQUIPMENT
ENVIRONMENT
I record in an accoustically treated home studio environment to minimize echoes, noise and reverberation.
BROADCAST QUALITY MICROPHONES
To complement the treated studio setting, I use premium microphones: Neumann TLM 103 and Sennheiser MKH 416. These microphones are excellent at capturing the inflections and timbre of the voice.
PREAMPLIFIER
I use the professional quality British audio preamplifier Audient iD14.
DIGITAL AUDIO WORKSTATION (DAW)
And finally! I record everything using the very versatile Reaper professional DAW. This makes it possible to edit and master your file to a high specification, or, if preferred, you can just have the raw file.
