Frequently asked

What you're probably wondering

What is the difference between German from Germany, Austria and Switzerland?

The reference standard is Germany's Hochdeutsch, valid across the whole DACH region for advertising and corporate work. Austrian and Swiss German have their own intonation and vocabulary: if your campaign specifically targets Vienna or Zurich and wants local warmth, consider a voice from that country. For pan-European German campaigns, neutral Hochdeutsch is the safe choice.

Do I need a native speaker or will a fluent non-native do?

For anything public-facing — advertising, web, e-learning, IVR — always use a native: German-speaking audiences are especially sensitive to foreign accents and read them as a lack of professionalism. A bilingual voice only makes sense for internal materials or when you need one voice across several languages and accept that trade-off.

Can the artist review the German translation of my script?

Yes. Most do a light pass before recording (natural phrasing, compound words, numbers, anglicisms) and will flag a translation that reads off. If the text needs deep adaptation, they will tell you before recording, not after.

How fast is a German voice over delivered?

Short scripts are typically delivered 24-48 hours after awarding. On a tight deadline, filter by immediate availability or mention it in your brief and our team will help you find an available voice.

Are revisions included?

Recording or pronunciation errors are always fixed at no cost. Script changes after delivery are handled as a retake with a closed quote, agreed before re-recording.
