No such piece of software exists, I'm afraid.

Yep, it doesn't happen. There are always bug fixes that get pushed onto the wishlist for the next release. Software is released when it is good enough and stable enough, not when it is perfect.

The same could be said of VO. We listen to a take and we always hear something we could have done better. On subsequent takes these vocal "bugs" become less and less noticeable and eventually we reach a point where we are up against deadline, want to get paid, and need to move on to the next project financially.
At that point, our performance is good enough and we ship it. But it will never be flawless. You've just minimized the likelihood that your customer will find those annoying bugs that you know exist. The same is true of software development.

In art, these "flaws" are called "distortions" and are what make an artist's work uniquely— and identifiably— his own.

My stuff is flawless. On the first take, too. I have no idea what you're talking about.

Frank, what a great idea.
You saw a need for an affordable alternative to ISDN, and you may just "corner the market" with this thing.
May it bring you all the riches that you desire (along with your VO work!). |

Perfection is her distortion.

So Frank are you going to do a "closed Beta" with VO-BB folk?

I would imagine a beta would require both a client and a studio to be effective. He'd have to open it wider than just us. Someone has to listen to us, right?
