About
Founded in 1978, HASTINGS AUDIO NETWORK offers international audio craft across 14 sound studios located in Berlin, Bremen, Düsseldorf, Geneva, Hamburg, and Zurich. Our main expertise lies in advertising for all relevant media channels such as TV, radio, podcast, cinema, POS, and online.
We are specialists for high-class voice recordings and sound design. Our audio engineers are highly decorated and our production managers coordinate complex cross-location challenges. Together this guarantees a smooth and successful implementation of your project, 100% safe and sound. In addition, multilingual adaption for clients worldwide as well as a production output of over 10,000 spots per year emphasise our position as one of the leading service providers in the audio business.
Brand & AI Voices
We are one of Germany's leading voice casting agencies. Our focus lies particularly on personal advice, quality, and market knowledge. Only the best voice talents are going to find their way into
the HASTINGS voice database. Besides the regular auditions we also track down talents beyond the mainstream; e.g. in theatres, in the movies or simply on the street.
Hence you can be rest assured that you will definitely get the best possible casting for your project. Furthermore, we check the talents’ availabilities and negotiate the fees. But the best is yet to come: no more time-consuming fiddling away on dubious web portals. No risks, no ifs, ands, or buts.
Due to our versatile studio capacities which are all equipped with excellent room acoustics, we are specialists in the implementation of dialog system recordings such as TTS (Text to Speech) or AI-based voice. Our customers include Deutsche Telekom (Brand Voices & Magenta Smart Speaker) and Nuance Communications Inc, the world's largest developer in the field of Virtual Voice.
Thanks to state-of-the-art AI technology, we are also able to clone any type of voice in the best possible quality and with data security. We take the same care as we do with real voices. We take special care to ensure that the tonality and characteristics of the voice are preserved. This means that digital AI clones can be easily created for human brand voices, which can be used in a variety of ways, e.g. if the actual voice artist is unavailable or particularly extensive projects need to be implemented quickly. The files are generated by our experienced voice designers using TTS or STS.
