DAN WACHS PROFESSIONAL VOICE OVER RECORDING STUDIO

This is the recording equipment found in Dan Wachs' voice over studio.

Neumann U-87 large condenser microphone

One of the most famous and highly-revered microphones in the world.  In voice over, more or the world's top voice over talent uses either the U-87 (or my other mainstay, the 416, below.) than any other in the world.  Hey, if it was good enough for Whitney Houston, it's good enough for me.

Sennheiser MKH 416 shotgun microphone

A legendary voice over microphone, often called the "LA mic," used by the famous Marc Graue recording studio. The leading talent in the industry I like to use this classic shotgun on some of my "epic voice" spots for sports or trailers.  I have other mics, but the 416 and U-87 are the leaders of the pack.!

Avalon Vacuum Tube 737sp Tube Amplifier
Voice Overs by Dan Professional Voice Over Talent in Orlando Florida

There is nothing as warm and beautiful as a tube amp, and for voiceovers, this is one of the gold standards over the years.  You can hardly walk into a top flight recording studio without seeing one or two of these staring you in the face.  

Vintech X73i Solid State Preamp-Equalizer
Voice Overs by Dan Professional Voice Over Talent in Orlando Florida

The classic sound of the Neve 1073 module is perfectly replicated via this Vintech X73i discrete transformer balanced microphone preamplifier with equalizer.  Having world-class amps, both tube and solid state, give me tons of great recording options customized for your voice over project.

Teleronix LA-2A Levling Amp Classic 1960's design leveling amp
Voice Overs by Dan Professional Voice Over Talent in Orlando Florida

Found in the finest recording studios around the world, The LA-2A is still built by hand and the manufacturer builds them to order, one at a time.  For that sought-after "vintage" sound, this 60's-designed compressor is a classic.  Smooth as butter, the compression characteristics are unmatched. 

Distressor EL8-X Compressor

Voice Overs by Dan Professional Voice Over Talent in Orlando Florida

Often called the "Swiss Army Knife" of compressors due to the variety of sounds it creates, this is my latest acquisition.  The solid-state Distressor delivers a full range of vocal colors and tones, found in the most advanced recording studios in the world.  Proud to have it  join the rack of champions.

FMR Audio PBC-6A Compressor

This compact, solid-state compressor give astonishing results in terms of shaping and toning the voice. For the money, this little half-rack box is a killer.

M-Audio FireWire Solo

Voice Overs by Dan Professional Voice Over Talent in Orlando Florida

This is the Firewire high-speed interface that converts the analogue signal to digital in order to send it to the computer. Great sound card in this baby.

Rokit 6 Powered Studio Reference Monitors
Voice Overs by Dan Professional Voice Over Talent in Orlando Florida

Sound that has no color but the color of truth.  Mandatory to hear exactly what you're putting out without adding anything, such as the excessive bass you hear on retail speakers. These are so accurate, I can easily hear the slightest click or pop, enabling me to edit them out of existence.  

KRK 10" Sub Woofer

Voice Overs by Dan Professional Voice Over Talent in Orlando Florida

This big dog sub woofer gives me the bass undertones I need to create not only an accurate sound, but it also helps me avoid and producing  files that are too "bassy" like I did in my early voice over days. This big guy will rattle your insides if you let it!

 

1955 Corvette
Voice Overs by Dan Professional Voice Over Talent in Orlando Florida
This is not actually audio gear, but a really cool model '55 Vette sitting atop my Avalon. Sadly, I had to park it elsewhere with the addition of so many new audio elements to the Dan Wachs Rack of Doom.  Ha!
