I'm a voice-over artist, but I'm not incredibly educated on audio itself. I don't know how to make things sound better, for the most part. I'm looking to step my game up, take my recordings to the next level, but I'm not sure what my next step should be.
I'm interested in getting a recording booth (looking at Whisper Room and a few others), but I'm worried it might be overkill. I just ordered this isolation shield yesterday, which should help a bit, but I want to do whatever I can to get the best out of my recordings.
Here's a sample recording with my current set-up. Not exactly sure what that low hiss is, I'm thinking it might be my computer, and hoping the iso shield should help with that. I also got a new XLR cable, in case that's the issue.
But yeah, just looking for advice on where to go next. Is a recording booth too much? Treating my room might be an issue, it's pretty large and had a lot of stuff for noise to bounce off of.
Also, since it probably matters, my mic is an Audio Technica AT2020 (XLR, not USB), and my mixer is an Alesis Multimix 8 USB. (This one.)
Any help appreciated. Just looking to get better sound. Thanks!
