Yes u nailed it. Beginner microphone best one can afford at the time. One day. One day. This video means a lot for many thanks.

This is a great video too. I have to say, Julie's smiling is absolutely infectious! This is a great collaboration between the two of you and thank you for letting the rest of us sit in on it.

I can't believe this amazing video only has 119 likes. This content and insight is pure GOLD! I found it at 1am and am glad I saved it for today.

That dude could talk into an empty can of peas and it would be commercial ready. In some ways I actually preferred the bypassed version.

Does the Radial pass 48v?

Thanks Lenny, this was another great vidoe!

Thank for making your time on this Sir!!!

Sounds good.

Where we can find this boominess in male vocal? What frequenties is that?

Great information!!! Mouth de-click from Izotope is a great helper 😊 And if you have an UAD interface, the C-Suite C-Vox plugin is a game changer!!!

IDK... i like the sound coming out from the DBX...

Really good breakdown on normalization. Thanks Lenny B!

GREAT VIDEO

Hi Lenny, I think that the ec1 sounds so amazing compared to the 2i2. Do you think the difference would be as big coming from an audient or similar higher quality interface?

This is great. So I've been producing ACX audiobooks. They make their requirements in RMS, so how would I do this for them? They require an -18 dbs to -25 dbs RMS. Would that be the same in LUFS?

Julie's smile and eyes light up the frame! Good to see some humor and smilles from you too Lenny!

Can you help me with my setup, I stream on twitch, I have AT 4050 into warm wa73 eq into wa76 into wa2a into Pultek eq, I've been messing with it so much I'm just not sure if I'm getting the best sound

Let me say this: once you hear a LennyB preset on your voice, you can't un-hear it. He created a preset for me this week, and I honestly didn’t know what I was missing until I heard my original compared to his magical preset. WOW! I can't wait to receive the final preset because it motivates me to hit the record button and practice! The price was reasonable, and the turnaround time was 2-3 days. I already owned most of the plugins, and the ones he suggested were affordable and part of various summer sales bundles in June 2024. Thank you, Lenny! 💪🏼 Highly recommended!

Sounds great!

Great video, as usual! You really deliver great quality! Thank you for that! ❤ Are you certain that the de-esser is actually working? Even after you have set up the de-esser in the video, there still are some pretty harsh and offending sharp s sounds. For me it sounds like it's in 10k and up. Both on my TV speakers and Beyerdynamic 770 DT Pro 😮

Nice Lenny. Great job! I picked up mine for VO a couple years back and the guy at Sweetwater highly recommended a Gold Lion tube to replace the stock version. When I did the swap-out I heard a discernable improvement! Ah, but then I read a very obscure article online (I was never able to find it again, sorry) about a guy who was convinced he had found a GREAT tube for it. Well, I bought that tube for another 30 bucks or so but before switching out, I recorded a few lines with the Gold Lion installed. I then did the swap and recorded the same lines again. (I believe with either a TLM 103 or maybe the 416) I listened to play back and knew immediately that the obscure article's author wasn't kidding! To be sure I wasn't tainted in perception due to having spent ANOTHER 30 bucks on a tube, I brought my wife in the studio and played both tracks a couple of times. After the first pass she said, "I like the 2nd one better." I played both again and she quickly replied half way through, "Definitely the second!" With that said, the tube was a JJ ELECTRONICS: ECC--83s! It's been in there a couple years now and still doing it's thing. BTW, an interesting side note, when I was working with noise floor testing, the ART, with this JJ, beat the numbers of a brand new, tubeless Focusrite ISA One. Because of some "not-so-liked" early offerings, ART sadly got a really bad wrap fast but I'm convinced now that this is one of the best channel strips out there regardless of the lower price! At 600 it's still a steal! (I love the sound too with that JJ tube) I've done some source connect sessions with a couple large studios and the one engineer said, "Great sound man." (If I told him it was going through an "ART" I'm sure his opinion would have been different. '-) Brand snobbery is prevalent throughout the audio world. Heck, back in the day, I recorded a spot and the engineer in Philly loved the sound of my voice and said, "You use a U-87 Neumann don't ya?" I said, "Yeah, how'd ya know?" He chortled, "It's not my first paper route." Well, truth be told, I did HAVE a U-87 but hated it on my voice. The spot was recorded on a 421 Sennheiser dynamic. He He He.

Seems likes it’s basically a Behringer UV 1 on Steroids

The speaker is too close to the mic. In both processed and unprocessed recordings, a pronounced sibilance is present. I can hear him “pegging” the high end. Quite off putting…

Hi Lenny, I have this Art Model. Your "tutorial" was amazing to dive in my preamp. Now a question for you: I have a MKH416 and an AT4053B. Which one do you best recommend for my Voice Over?

WOW. Great tips. Audio is king when it comes to videos

Yes but if you go too close to the mouth you end up in NPR lip smacking land

Don't forget to add a de-esser!!

Step #0 have a cool voice like this guy. 😂

It ruins the sound, you like compression then you do t like sound

Great job! As always....

Idk I like unprocessed better.

I see. A preamp is to process the sound from the mic before feeding it to the amplifier. In 2024, we may simply use Rodecaster Pro II.

Is there a program that would remove the accent? That would be ideal for my current setup.

Is there a budget hardware alternative to this?

Scheps Omni2 is by far the best investment I’ve made in my VO arrangement. Absolutely essential

Lenny, have you ever used MainStage? It’s a Mac app that hosts plugins in real-time. Designed for live concerts it could be a great way for someone to improve their video conferencing audio as well.

Thanks so much for the condensed info - however - the thumbnail for this short is the most unfortunate <3

thank you!!!

You are amazing..I like your channel and you help a lot.😊 thank you

Hey Lenny, would you be willing to set up a Manley Voxbox for me and take a look at my current stack in Audition?

Awesome video! Thank you for sharing with us real value :)

Hi Lenny, this video is absolutely stunning. One question please... I went toyour site, and I'd like to know if you are making a course bundle for your courses, and how much is it please ? Thanks

I may have missed the episode, but what about that Voxbox?

Very rich and lush!

So much to learn, appreciate the new info and thoughts on how it all works, complex.. and something to work towards.. as a growing voice:))

Been researching around:). Great to get more details:)) thank you

Thanks. Helpful!:))

I used one for about a year before I switched to a UAD Apollo TwinX Quad. It’s a good unit. Unfortunately, the EQ is semi-parametric, as you noted.

I need your help with this! 😄👍

Been contemplating getting one of these to use with my Lauten Atlantis FC-387! I have this theory that the +10db switch on the mic used alongside a good preamp like the A.R.T would just SING. the +10db switch on the Atlantis will give more character from the mic into the preamp and then on top of that the tube preamp would then further just give some meat onto the audio in a lovely warm way
