VO-BB - 20 YEARS OLD!

I've tweaked my home studio setup (using a different pop filter, standing a little closer) but I'm concerned that the audio quality may have been adversely affected. Please provide your candid feedback.

The short clip is here:

Sounds ok to me.

Very nice, very clean sound to my ear.

Disagree. Hissy sound, you're not speaking very loudly and I can still hear the reflectiveness of your studio area. Even when I sent this through a harsh HPF the noise floor was around -42dbFS.

It sounds like you're eating the mic speaking low and have the gain cranked to hide the reflectiveness and muddiness of your room, but I still hear that. And a speaking a short phrase with little projection doesn't paint the whole picture.

I'm not sure what the difference is that you're hearing, since there is no "A- B"
sample for comparison. Yet again, when people do provide an A-B comparison,
human perception steps in and there can often be little if any total agreement.

What I am hearing is room/ambience noise, hiss and echo.

Acoustics are counter-intuitive. If one thing is certain about acoustics, it is that if anything seems obvious it is probably wrong.

Hmmm, I was a little concerned about the noise. Believe it or not, I think it's coming from my fridge which is actually one floor below. I think I can get the noise down a little lower. THanks everyone.
