Minimal

As of 2020, any silent room with silent computer and microphone will do. Computer's fan, room noise, building noise and street noise are your main enemies. But most microphone hardwares are enough to record human voices fairly.

Recording using smartphone has proven surprisingly good, higher-end smartphones having dedicated sound-cards cleaning audio input from unwanted background noises.

Recommended material

This is a semi-professional recommendation :

  • Silent room / Recording studio
  • 1 x Scarlett2 Solo Studio Pack 2nd Generation, comprising portable :
    • 1 x microphone
    • 1 x headset
    • 1 x external sound card
    • 1 x cables
  • Microphone's addons :
    • 1 x Pod / Arm stand
    • 1 x Anti-pop filter
    • 1 x Anti-vibration system
  • 1 x modest PC (audio recording chain is external)
  • Internet connexion

Cost : US$250 for external audio equipments + US$300 for optional PC = 250 ~ 550US$.
