The Home Brew Audio Story
I’m Ken Theriot, the founder of Home Brew Audio, and I teach how to produce professional, quality audio from home, no studio required.
When I started, my goal was to show that professional, quality audio isn’t just for sound engineers in expensive studios. It’s achievable, affordable, and often far easier than you think
I’ve helped thousands of creators find their voice through simple, clear teaching. If you need to take your sound to the next level, I’ll help you get there-step by step.
Do You Need Expensive Equipment to Sound Polished?
Listen to the following two audio samples. One was recorded using gear worth $500. The other was recorded with equipment that only cost $15 . Can you tell the difference or which is which?
In your honest opinion does the audio on this video sound really, really good to you?
Do you find the audio quality here the same, better or worse? Can you hear a difference?

You are such a good teacher. Not only teach well. I also like the arrows pointing and circle where you are talking about. And a close-up look of the screen.. it really did make a big difference thank you. Subscribed.
Let me tell you that what I have learned from your videos in this short time was extraordinary. Your method of presentation and the way you teach is excellent. I was a teacher and educator. When I see a good teacher or listen to one, I know how good he/she is.
Really great teacher- I have learned so much from these videos.
I like the way you care to show every little thing you do and your friendly way of talking. Subbed.
In the jungle of voice-over videos and classes, Ken Theriot of Home Brew Audio stands out. He makes the complicated understandable, your challenges manageable, and his services are affordable. Ken’s patience and persistence in solving my problems was an example to me of how to work with my audio software. He responded quickly and kindly to email questions. His common sense and laid-back approach made me feel comfortable and capable of learning. He helped me build a solid foundation on which to grow as a voice-over actor. I thank him and encourage you to use his service.
Very, very helpful and to the point! I was able to apply your tips instantly. Thanks a ton!
You are truly the best DAW instructor on the net. I have been watching video after video of narcissists who teach me nothing. THANK YOU!!!
Damn that was simple and unlike other tutorials…it was explained crystal clear.
You have literally been my savior for the past two hours as I’ve been working on a new project. Thank you. Thank you so much you majestic audio man.
Your videos helped me so so so much! Just a simple thank you is not enough but Thank you so much for doing this!
OH MY GOD MAN THANK YOU MUCH – I couldn’t apply this effect without completely screwing up my sound and voice, but you explained this perfectly! Thanks!
Great relief when I find someone who not only knows his stuff, but ALSO has the ability to present the information in a clear, concise and humorous way. Teaching is a skill separate from the subject matter itself. Many people have skills but are terrible at communicating them. This channel is excellent. Your video editing and annotation skills are also fantastic.
