The Pro Audio Suite

This week, we get onto the subject of microphones, and which is the best one to choose for sessions that will be played back in a live environment. Then, should you process your voice recordings for delivery to a studio? And to wrap up another big show we cover the best way to place a mic in your voice booth no matter what it's size. Plus, squeezed in the middle is our special guest, voice artist and teacher Tom Dheere.

Which Mic for "Live" Recordings, to process or not, Mic Placement for best results

THE ENGINEERS VOICE

Over the years some very famous slogans have entered your ears via Harlan Hogan's voice:

From Raids' "Kills bugs fast, Kills bugs dead" and Head & Shoulders' "That little itch should be telling you something" to the iconic, "It's the cereal even Mikey Likes".  

But VoiceOver is not Harlan's only bag. If you're familiar with the "Porta-Booth" you'll know that Harlan also runs one of the biggest home studio supply site on the net. Complete with his own Mic.

In this week's show, we talk with Dan about his work, what got him there, and where it is taking him. We also compare a script read by both Dan and Andrew and run through Dan's mic chain to see what give him that "Secret Sauce", and Dan also spills a few secrets about how to have a better shot with your next Audition!

DAN HURST

If you've ever built a studio at home, you know that it's not as easy as it seems. There are so many expenses, and (to be honest) choices to be made.

In this episode, we talk to two hard-working Voice Actors who have great home setups, and deep dive into whats worked for them, what hasn't, and what they could probably have done without.

What follows is a fairly definitive "How To" episode for what to do right and what not to do when you're planning and building a new room or rooms.

How to build the perfect home studio

AP makes no secret of the fact that he loves his OC818 from Austrian Audio, and I have to agree that it is a beautiful match to his warm tones. But at $1200 USD it's not exactly a bargain.

So what about its little brother the OC18 ($850)? Not quite as many bells and whistles, but is it even in the same league? AP has one in his hot little hands so we aim to find out.

We also thought we'd throw him in a pair of their new HI-X65's open-back headphones and see what he thought...
