Sennheiser 416 Shotgun Microphone
Ah, the Sennheiser 416 – the rockstar of microphones! This little legend is famous for its razor-sharp sound quality and pinpoint directionality. Whether I’m in a quiet studio or huddled in a hotel room that’s not quite soundproof, the 416 cuts through all the noise and delivers crisp, professional audio. I’ve even recorded in my car, which, by the way, makes an awesome sound booth. Who knew my trusty sedan would double as a recording studio on wheels?
Steinberg UR12 USB Audio Interface
Small but mighty, this interface is the unsung hero of my setup. It powers my mic (yes, even the Sennheiser demands power) and converts all that silky-smooth audio into digital magic. It’s USB-powered, so I can plug it straight into my iPad. No bulky power bricks, no fuss—just clean, clear sound every time.
Apple M1 iPad
This is the brain of the operation. The M1 iPad handles everything from recording to editing without breaking a sweat. It’s lightweight, powerful, and fits perfectly in my mobile studio setup. Whether I’m at a café, in a hotel room, or (again) in the car, this baby keeps the workflow smooth and fast.
Apple Keyboard Sleeve
Typing without a keyboard is like recording without a mic—it’s possible, but why make things harder? This sleek keyboard is my portable workhorse, keeping me productive while protecting itself in a stylish sleeve. I just toss it in my bag and go.
Hercules Weighted Mic Stand
Need to set up a mic anywhere? Enter the Hercules stand. This beast keeps my mic steady, whether I’m in a hotel, a car, or a random corner of the world. It’s reliable and sturdy, making sure my precious Sennheiser is always in position to capture that perfect take.
V-Moda M100 Headphones
Having your own headphones is a game-changer. The V-Moda M100s offer fantastic isolation, so there’s no unwanted noise creeping into my recordings. Plus, they give me a consistent reference of my voice, which is crucial. Oh, and hygiene matters too—no more sharing headphones in studios!
Shielded Mic Cable
The unsung hero of any recording setup! A shielded mic cable keeps interference at bay, which is critical when I’m recording on the go. Whether I’m battling sketchy Wi-Fi signals or city noise, this cable makes sure my takes stay clean and clear.
Ferrite Pro Editing Software
Editing on the go? No problem. Ferrite Pro is my trusty sidekick for tweaking and perfecting audio. It’s got all the pro tools I need to polish my recordings to perfection, all from the convenience of my iPad.
20000mAh Lipo Battery Pack
Power, power, power! This battery pack keeps everything running smoothly when you’re miles away from an outlet. It powers my iPad and interface for hours, meaning I can record wherever inspiration strikes (or deadlines loom).
B&T Flightcase
Travelling with all this gear requires serious protection, and my B&T flightcase delivers. It’s tough enough for the rigors of travel and compact enough for easy portability. Everything stays organised and safe, no matter where I go.

Every piece of gear in my mobile voiceover setup has earned its place. From the unbeatable Sennheiser 416 mic to the iPad powerhouse, each one helps me deliver high-quality voiceovers from wherever I happen to be—whether that’s in a hotel, a remote location, or even my car (seriously, cars are amazing sound booths!).
With this setup, I’m always ready to tackle urgent projects and meet tight deadlines, without sacrificing quality. For my clients, this means quicker turnaround times, zero delays, and top-tier voiceovers no matter where I am.
So, whether you’re a company needing fast, flawless voiceovers or just curious about how I make it all happen, my secret is in the gear. It keeps me flexible, reliable, and always on point, helping you keep your projects on track and your goals in sight.
