Margent keeps your manuscript, chapter review, and pickups together so you can spend more time narrating. You may also see the application referred to as VO Studio.

​
Start with one chapter

1

Set up your book

Create a project, add your manuscript, and check its reading sections.
2

Read and record

Use Studio for your manuscript and pickup notes. Record your audio in your usual recording software.
3

Review your narration

Upload a chapter recording in QA. Once proofing finishes, listen to the flagged passages and decide whether each needs a change.
4

Work through pickups

Create pickups for the passages you want to fix. Record and edit the corrections in your recording software, then mark the pickups complete.
5

Prepare the handoff

If you want the edited chapter checked, replace its recording. Review the new results and prepare delivery.

​
Three terms you will use often

  • Finding: a possible difference identified during proofing, awaiting your decision.
  • Pickup: a passage you have decided needs work, created from a finding or marked manually.
  • Current recording: the uploaded chapter audio used for the current proofing results.
A completed review queue means you have dealt with its work items. It does not certify the audio or send files to your client.
