Is Razum-dar's voice in Galem done by a different voice actor?

So I started his quest in Galem and I noticed he just didn't sound like himself. Is a different voice actor doing his voice?

    If his Galen voice was different, I didn't notice.

    I feel the same way about other NPCs, such as the Undaunted pledge-givers. You can tell the lines are being read by the same actors, but sometimes there's a huge difference between their common greetings and their lines about today's dungeon. You can tell they were recorded at different times, and possibly under different circumstances, because the audio quality/clarity, the volume, and the timbre of the voice is just so different. I've sometimes wondered whether there's any kind of after-the-fact audio processing that ZOS could do to make the audio files sound more consistent.

    offtopic: Zeni could hire Bislobo as Khajiit male voice actor, he is really good at that :D

    If the same studio is used for voice recording, they'll keep notes of any particulars of the setup, including processing chain settings, so that the next time a session for that project/voice actor comes around, they'll be able to start up more or less where they left off and have consistent results.

    But if things change -- different studio, new equipment, whatever -- the sound is very likely to be different. Sometimes subtly, sometimes more noticeably. Even with modern processing software, there can still be differences.

    We could attempt a summoning of the @ZOS_BeckyIchnoski to answer this, but no guarantees. :smile:

    Summoning failed. :disappointed:

    I have to agree that he sounded the same, though.
