But for a few months now, they've been using a thing called Sourceconnect which lets them record him over the Internet rather than having Chris fly down there so that's how they record him now since flying down to LA was probably getting to be pretty expensiveDBZ_Lee wrote:Sean records in LA, and Chris flys in to direct him there.simtek34 wrote:I heard that he moved from the UK a while ago on Twitter.Chuquita wrote:Would Little Kuriboh be able to do it?

I can't believe that Chris was this ill. Godspeed, Chris. I hope he makes a speedy recovery.

Poor guy. Hope he fights through all of it and makes a speedy recovery. He's without a doubt one of my favourite voice actors in all of Dragon Ball and just such a cool dude. Wish him all the best.

He lives in California with his American wife. He has for the last several years or so. Besides, I think they could manage it over phone calls in recording studios anyways. David Tennant did it when he recorded his parts for Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Besides, they got MasakoX for the audio that ended up being deleted, so I don't think it'd be much of a hastle.Chuquita wrote:Would Little Kuriboh be able to do it? Is he still in the UK?

Also, someone on the Super dub thread said that they record Sean's dialogue over the phone, I believe, or Sabat flies out there & they book time in a recording studio for him, so no worries there.
Anyways, yeah, hope you get better, Chris.
Only dubs that matter are DB, Kai, & Super. Nothing else.

This is awful and I hope that can brave through it and get well soon. Apparently a back up Frieza has been found just in case but considering that the F arc has been dubbed since March and the Universe Survival arc won't be dubbed for a while, they may not be used unless there's a simuldub

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
So sad, I hope he recovers. If a backup has to be used I hope it's his brother Greg. I know many DBZ fans who have heard this news hopes that the backup is the return of Linda Young.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
Horrible news about Chris Ayres, I hope he gets through it all. Definitely a big surprise to hear about all he's been going through.
But anyhow, despite this being sort of a meme video, I wish that the dub voice actor for Zamasu sounded like this guy:

Really hoping Funi recasts the guy from XV2, he was just awful.

Fuck, that's terrible! I sincerely hope he recovers, with no complications. Watching the new episodes of Super has made me extremely excited about hearing Ayres take on the new stuff. I hate to trivialize his illness by being disappointed in him possibly not returning for Super, but I adore his Freeza, and I think it'd be a shame to lose his talent.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
So XV2 DLC, FUNi gave Merged Zamasu that reverb effect thingy similar to the Japanese. Wonder if they'll keep it for Super Ryhmestyle said he is not a fan of the whole reverb thing, guess I need to wait for more clear sound to make a judgement.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
It'll probably be Greg Ayers that takes the roll. His Frost voice sounds similar enough that if he made it somewhat lower/deeper, they would be almost exact.Noah wrote:Not quite, they could bring back Linda Young to play the role in his place when he's absentKaio_Krazy wrote:Fuck, that's terrible!

If you like Linda Young's Freeza, that's cool, but that would be the exact opposite of what I personally would want.Noah wrote:Not quite, they could bring back Linda Young to play the role in his place when he's absentKaio_Krazy wrote:Fuck, that's terrible!

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
It's not gonna be, though. The voices are so different & they're, overall, trying to be more faithful to the Japanese in terms of casting, that they're most likely getting someone who can sound similar to Ayres, or can do the voice & accent 100%. If it IS his brother, great, since it matches the casting in the original Japanese of Frieza & Frost, plus Greg was casted as Frost partly because he can do a slightly different version of Chris' Frieza voice. Plus, the Linda Young VS Chris Ayres Frieza voice is such a big point of contention (personally, I feel that, in my opinion, Young doesn't even remotely hold a candle to Ayres' voice) that I don't think Sabat would wanna rock the boat between the nostalgia brats & Chris Ayres fans anymore than what's already come about, so they're most likely getting someone who can do a Chris Ayres soundalike voice, which shouldn't be too hard, depending on the voice actor. Plus, they don't wanna confuse younger fans who'd never heard of Young voicing Frieza originally.Noah wrote:Not quite, they could bring back Linda Young to play the role in his place when he's absentKaio_Krazy wrote:Fuck, that's terrible!

I'm hoping that Chris will recover in time for when they start recording those episodes, though. We have, what, about a year or so before they absolutely NEED to record those episodes for the broadcast, right? Given that they have around 70-80 some odd episodes before they get to the Universe Survival arc's airing (plus Adult Swim & Toonami's semi-random marathons of other shows), it should be a sinch to have Ayres record his parts last, since that seems to be how they're handing the dubs; actor availability. Plus, whoever they get could just be counted as a placeholder until Ayres could dub over that person's recordings before they'd air, or get released on home media.
Only dubs that matter are DB, Kai, & Super. Nothing else.
