Editor notes & listening tips
How we test narration
We assess pacing, clarity, character differentiation, and production value in each sample chapter.
- Short listen (15–30 min) to assess voice fit.
- Check sample across platforms for consistency.
- Note timecode markers for highlights.
Speed & retention tips
Adjust playback speed conservatively; 1.25x often improves focus without losing nuance.
- Use bookmarks for key passages.
- Pause and take short notes after chapters.
