What tools and gear does Gabrielle Nistico recommend for aspiring voice actors?

I focus less on chasing fancy gear and more on getting the right basics and learning to use them well.

For most aspiring voice actors, I generally recommend starting with:

• A solid large-diaphragm XLR microphone (not a cheap USB mic)
• A reliable audio interface
• Closed-back studio headphones
• A quiet, treated recording space (blankets, panels, closets beat “pretty” but echoey rooms)
• Simple, stable recording software (like Audacity, Reaper, or TwistedWave)

What gear do you already have, if any?
