Sarah,

You've gotten some great advice here. I'll simply chime in with two points:

I have the Rode PSA 1 and had a woodworker friend build a table to my specifications for my booth. I can either stand or sit with the boom. Couldn't find the right table but my friend and I built t ...

I also use the dog clicker method. I'm using Twisted Wave, which doesn't do Punch and Roll, but I don't think I'd want to anyway. Since I'm doing audiobooks, I'm afraid stopping for Punch and Roll wo ...

I have a WhisperRoom. It arrived in 11 boxes. No box weighed over 50 pounds and a buddy and I easily carried them into my home. (We're both in our 60's.) I think movers wouldn't have much of a pro ...

To follow up my own question..So something like Focusrite Scarlett series wouldn't do the job, enabling a Line input from say, the Avalon pre?
