We're busting some of the biggest myths still floating around VO and podcast studios. From noise gates that wreck your takes to USB mics that promise "pro quality" but rarely deliver, we cut through the nonsense and share what actually works.

In this episode:

• Noise gates: why they usually cause more harm than good

• Noise reduction: AI vs old-school fingerprint NR

• USB mics: when they fail and why they're limiting

• Expensive mics: shiny gear doesn't fix a bad room

• Coaching: how much do you really need once you're working?

• Booths & acoustics: why treatment matters more than a box, and why high ceilings aren't the enemy
