My Studio Equipment

I am very lucky to have my own professional sound isolation booth which makes the quality of my audio superior to alot of what you'll find on Voice123. The walls are double enforced with insulation in between and covered with 2" thick studio wedge foam to provide that clean crisp sound you're looking for. My mic is a Rode Podcaster which works very well with my voice. I have remote access to my computer station outside the walls via flatscreen monitor and a keyborad/mouse shelf which do not compromise sound efficiency as they do not make noise.

Live sessions are something I am fully capable of at no extra cost.

I also do have access to another studio. It will cost you only $75 for an hour to use Sounds Write Studios ontop of my fee. The only reason I mention this is because they have a beautiful studio setting equipped with an Digi002 audio interface and a Neumann TLM49 mic which works extremely well with my voice. It will also grant you access to a very skilled audio engineer by the name of Bill Lawrie (The Owner). It's worth it!
