The short version- Find the quietest spot: a small room, a corner away from the door, or a booth.
- Put the mic close, and speak to it rather than across the room.
- Turn off the air conditioning for the take if you can.
- Clean the steady office noise gently.
Find the quiet spot
A small meeting room with the door shut is often quiet. A corner away from the door and the printers can work too. Record a few seconds of silence to check the room.
Mic and distance
Put the mic close and speak to it, not across the room. A close voice rises above the office hum and the keyboards.
Clean
Reduce the steady air conditioning and room noise gently. The noise guide covers the method, and the keyboard guide covers clicks.
