As with any investment, you'll need to research equipment you'll need for your studio, and how to install and use it. See if you can locate a voice talent in your area that may let you visit his or her studio. Visit Mix Magzine or EQ Magazine and check their archives for articles on home studios. Local production houses may be willing to make suggestions, but, remember, by setting up your own studio, you're indicating to clients that they can cut out production house by working directly with you. That may not sit well with some production house owners, because home voiceover explosion has had a detrimental impact on many commercial recording facilities.

That's a basic home voiceover studio in a nutshell. If you can operate a home stereo and have experience in front of a computer screen, then you can put together and operate a home voiceover studio. With a little practice recording and editing, and some promotion of your home studio, you can quickly recover cost of your studio and add to begin to add to your bottom line.

Happy voicing!
