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

Hi there!

Based on what I share publicly, I focus less on chasing shiny gear and more on smart, practical choices. I do not publish a single “official kit” list, but here is what I consistently recommend as a baseline for aspiring voice actors:

• A solid entry‑level XLR mic (not USB) and a basic audio interface
• Closed‑back studio headphones
• A treated recording space (panels, blankets, NOT just a fancy mic)
• Reliable recording/editing software (Audacity, Reaper, etc.)
• Stable computer and external backup drive

If you tell me your budget and room setup, I can suggest a realistic starter chain that makes sense for you.

What’s your current setup and approximate budget for gear?
