Part 2 of "Setting Up Your Set Up" - In this week's episode, I go through how sound gets into your computer - one of those things everyone thinks they understand... until they think about it. What steps have to happen to get from your words to those waves in your recording software. And just why the heck do we call them sound "WAVES" anyway? 

Questions this week:
"What is your input chain?", "How can I sweeten my audio?" and "What happens when a client wants your recordings to be louder?"

I love to answer your questions! Ask your voiceover recording or VO studio questions at JustAskJimVO.studio/questions.
