In the studio

I am proud of my state of the art recording studio. I renovated this sound treated room myself. There is sound proofing insulation in the walls and ceiling and there are sound baffles strategically hung in all the corners of the room and at the first and second angles of reflection. This room is quiet, but at less than -60dB noise floor, my new isolated stand up booth is even more quiet! The ambiance is nice. There are enough hard surfaces in the room to keep my reads sounding natural. I use two video monitors.  One is for operating my Digital Audio Workstation and the other is used for reading copy. That means my studio is paperless. You’ll find a listing of my gear below. I spared no expense. Needless to say this is my favorite room in the house.
