Hi Ty,

1. Never thought of the noise issue from the tower. Do you think putting a sound blanket over it might work good enough so I can keep it in the same spot?

2. I have access to sound blankets. Should I hang one behind me to enclose myself in the rotunda and block myself off from the rest of the larger room?

3. Are these travertine floors bad for recording spoken word?

I actually have access to that exact mic you recommended.

Thanks!

Hi Ty,

I will be shooting videos possibly in the this location, maybe some basic web video, maybe using an HVX200, though the goal really is to create videos at other locations and put together still images in Final Cut or Adobe Premiere, and than add voice overs to them in the location in the attached image. So all though I might shoot some video in this spot, the purpose of this question is really to determine if it is a decent location for recording voice overs, understanding that from an audio engineer’s perspective it may not be ideal, though is it a good spot to even consider VS. doing it in a big open room?

Thanks!

Hi Ty,

I will be producing web videos.

I know it is not the ideal location, I guess what I’m trying to figure out is if recording in it is better or worst than being in a big open room? Is the fact that it is semi enclosed good?

Thank you.
