Next just gotta get that Rosetta 200 with firewire. What I found was keep it clean. If you do any ISDN session's that's how they'll want it, of course you probably knew that. It'll be a great setup regardless of what you pick, good stuff!
Thanks Russ! I visited you site. Impressive voice delivery and range !!!!thumbsup thumbsup thumbsup

I know a another top VO artist using that combination for VO.

Why you choose the M5 over the rest?

Why a UREI LA-4...anything special for vocals? What about the LA-3A

Thanks again!!!

Yes...I have ISDN studio.
