Vocal booth is at 28 decibals

So what's that mean? Who cares? Let me explain:

Benefits of a Vocal Booth vs. Recording in a Larger Room

Isolation and Sound Control

Superior Isolation: Vocal booths are specifically designed to isolate the vocalist from external noise and internal room reflections. This results in a much cleaner, crisper vocal recording, making it easier to mix and process later.
Reduced Room Sound: In a booth, the direct sound from the vocalist is captured, with minimal influence from the room’s acoustics. This produces a “dry” recording, which is ideal for adding controlled effects like reverb during mixing.
Minimized Bleed: If other musicians or equipment are present, a vocal booth prevents their sounds from bleeding into the vocal mic, which is especially important during simultaneous tracking sessions.

Noise Reduction

Lower Background Noise: Booths significantly reduce the intrusion of outside noises such as computer fans, air conditioning, or street sounds. This is critical for professional-quality vocal tracks and voice-over work.
Cleaner Takes: Isolating the vocalist means fewer retakes due to unwanted noises (e.g., a phone ringing or a dog barking), saving time and frustration during recording.

Consistency and Flexibility

Consistent Sound: A vocal booth provides a controlled environment, ensuring that every vocal take sounds similar regardless of external conditions. This consistency is valuable for projects requiring multiple sessions or overdubs.
Post-Production Flexibility: Dry vocals recorded in a booth can be processed with reverb, delay, or other effects as needed, giving the engineer full creative control over the final sound.

Workflow and Professionalism

Efficient Workflow: With a booth, engineers can monitor and mix in the control room without worrying about their own noises being picked up by the vocal mic. This streamlines the recording process and allows for real-time adjustments.

Professional Sound Booths will be below 30 db to capture sound at a noise to sound ratio that is extremely professional.

I spent years building this studio. I nerd out on a lot of detail and I nerded out hard on this booth for good reason. Currently, the reading is at 28 decibels, which means you achieve an incredible sound-to-noise level that can only exist in an engineered room explicitly built for this purpose. Whether you're doing voiceover or laying down your vocal take, it's going to come out clean and clear, which is expected in professional recordings. It can sit in a mix exactly as you envision, and you can shape the sound with precision after your take is complete. Nothing was compromised on when building this booth. It was constructed with your art in mind and I am extremely proud to be able to offer that type of sonic capture.
