Are you actually clapping to make that mark so you know exactly where to return? Or is there a button you press to form that "clap"? If you are actually clapping, can I just snap my fingers or what?

Yes, I actually clap. I'd bet there is a button in just haven't found yet because that would be me

@@1MKWilliams Cool. Thank you. I'm in process of trying recording my own audiobooks right now. I've been researching for hours on KZitem for the easiest method. So far, yours is the most easiest and affordable.

Hello, MK. Thank you for the video, I published a book on short stories kdp and I want them on audiobook. I just don't have the money to hire one and I don't have the voice that would be fit for the stories I have.

Hopefully a few narrators will comment. Some charge by the word so to produce an audiobook for a short story should be much less expensive. Best of luck!

For a nonfiction book that has references, do you have to say when there is a reference?

Depending on the frequency you can read them as in line references or, with any graphs and charts, make a webpage with all the references that listeners can go to later.

Just use an AI. It’s so clean sounding and costs very little. I’ve heard male & female AI examples for audiobooks and it’s incredible. Free examples exist online that will let you sample your own writing to see if you like the sound. Edit: Said a different way - what’s the benefit with *not* using AI if one can save money (maybe $1,000+ from a pro) or time (could be 100+ hrs start to finish)? Honest question cos the technology is just incredible and can render your whole book in an hour, and this stuff is only going to get better with time?

Well... Neither ACX or Findaway Voices (the two main audiobook self-publishing platforms) will accept AI narrated books. Google Play and Apple Books both have proprietary ai narration but you can only use it on their platforms. I have used Google Play's, it sounds great. But since I can only sell it there, it doesn't solve for audiobook listeners on other platforms. So yes, AI can create audiobooks quickly. But it isn't a simple solution in the current marketplace. Also, I think the use of AI will only increase the value of human narrated and voice-acted audiobooks in the future with each book potentially having multiple audiobook editions. Even with the AI narrated audio, I had to listen back through every word and correct pronunciation so it did save time but not all of it.

As an audiobook narrator, I can assure you the emotion will not be there if you use AI. If you only have a dry textbook, then maybe. And of course, ACX and Findaway will reject your books.

I have heard Ai and it sounds awful if you find the rare decent one overtime it sounds robotic and exhausting too listen too
