Thanks for the recs as well — will dig into these 🙏

I record a lot of foley, ADR, and VO. It all starts with performance and mic technique. Remember that you are recording the AIR between the microphone and the sound source.

Love your content. Hit me up if you ever need post audio services. Also, for portable recording without being tethered to a laptop, Sounddevices gear is great (and ubiquitous in the film industry).
