I've spent the last two months doing nothing but research... and spending money!! This all to save the two to three hour commutes I was making each way to the studios here in Japan.
As I get ready to put the final touches on my new home voiceover project studio, it is clear that the moneypit is truly bottomless...
Nonetheless, I've ended up with the following setup so far, and now all I have to do is figure out how the hell to USE it!!! (Grin)
