Male Castilian Spanish speakers: High-Quality Voice Data Collection: ($600 Milestone)

Overview We are seeking native male Castilian Spanish speakers with standard or neutral accents to record high-fidelity speech data for cutting-edge AI development. We are not looking for traditional "voice-over" styles but rather looking for authentic, expressive, and emotive voices that sound like real people. PLEASE DO NOT APPLY IF YOU DO NOT SPEAK STANDARD CASTILIAN SPANISH, we will have other projects for Latin American Spanish. The Project & Compensation Format: Milestone-based contract. Pay: $600 total upon delivery and approval of 3 hours of audio. Content: A guided mix of scripted personas, semi-scripted scenarios, and unscripted natural speech. We will provide all necessary guidance and prompts. Strict Technical Requirements This project is for AI training; therefore, audio fidelity is our highest priority. We have a zero-tolerance policy for poor recording environments. Professional Hardware: You must use a high-quality XLR or professional-grade USB condenser microphone. Acoustic Treatment: Recordings must be "dry"—no room echo, background hiss, fan noise, or reverb. No Post-Processing: We require raw, unprocessed WAV files. No EQ, compression, or noise gates. Prohibited: No phone mics, laptop mics, or gaming headsets. Who You Are Native Speaker: You must be a MALE native speaker of Castilian Spanish. Please speak in Spanish for your recording sample. You may add English if you wish. Expressive & Charismatic: You can flip between different "personas" or moods while remaining grounded and natural. Reliable: You can deliver 3 hours of high-quality audio while maintaining consistent volume and energy levels. How to Apply To be considered, please submit a 1–2 minute voice sample recorded with the exact setup you plan to use for the project. In your sample, please include: A brief intro: Your name, where you are from, and a quick description of your recording gear (Mic/Interface/Software). A "coffee chat": Talk to us naturally about a hobby or passion for 60 seconds. Expressive range: Give us 30 seconds of high-energy or emotive speech. Important: We will be listening specifically for noise floor and room acoustics. If your sample contains background noise or echo, your application will not be considered.
