Overview
You will find that you can speak loudly in the Vocal Booth with the door closed and you will either not be heard outside of that room or you will sound very distant with the sound being inaudible. The same situation is true for recording - most exterior environmental sounds will not be recorded. Take a look at the features below to learn more about the studio, equipment, and software included to achieve a professional recording.
