Sweeper voices

Attitude, bottled.

Each of these has an imaging demo. Listen for a voice you could pick out in a car park; that is what your listeners will do.

What sweepers need

Format, batch, air.

Name the format

CHR, country, talk, classic rock. The format is the brief; a sweeper voice reads "more music" four different ways depending on it.

A month in one script

Twenty sweepers and liners for the same station is one booking, one consistent voice, one invoice.

Dry, with room

Reads come dry and clean. Ask for a little air around each line so your producer can lay beds and hits.

How hiring works here

Three steps, no middleman.

You deal with the voice, the site holds the money, and the price is the one on the rate card before you start.

1

Post a casting, or pick a voice

Paste a few lines of your script and post a free casting; voices who suit it read those lines back to you. Already heard the one you want? Book them straight from their profile.

2

Choose from real reads

Auditions arrive as recordings of your words in their voice, usually within hours. Pick the one that fits, or none of them. Nothing is owed until you book.

Sweepers, liners and IDs are radio imaging on the rate card, priced separately from commercials.

Questions people ask

Sweeper questions, answered.

What is a radio sweeper?
A short station branding line played between songs or into a break: the station name with attitude, usually two to six seconds. Liners are the slightly longer cousins; IDs are the legal station identification.
How many sweepers can I book at once?
As many as you like for the same station in one booking. Most stations send a batch each month.
Do the sweepers come produced?
They come dry, which is how imaging producers want them. Add production if you need beds and effects laid in.
Can I keep the same voice?
Yes. Voices keep their profiles, so the station keeps its sound month after month.

Sweep the station properly.

Paste five sweepers and the format, hear imaging voices read them free, and book the one that owns the dial.
