Welcome…. To Taji’s Voice Emporium Centennial Post. Honestly I didn’t think you guys would stick with me that long. From the onset of Taji’s Voice Emporium Blog … the plan was that if people didn’t seem to get into my posts… that I would scrap it after the 100th post. Things have taken a happy yet unexpected turn. I won’t go all mushy on you but I greatly appreciate how the Voice Over Community has embraced my eclectic tastes and my somewhat point blank way of writing.
So instead of this being the Finale… I feel that this is just the beginning (Inshallah… God Willing). So here we are at my 100th post… I went all out and made a nice little graphic to celebrate it and what I wanted to do for the sake of any of my new readers is showcase some of my previous articles that you might have not been aware of before.
This won’t just be a best of post… I’ll try to keep things interesting and pepper in a few interesting experiences that happened to me on the way to reaching this milestone… this point in time. Read More

I was thinking today that for my 99th post I wanted to make it special. I wrote up a nice chunk about my history… then deleted it. Who cares what my history is… I’m 34 and God is still throwing me curve balls left and right to test my Mettle.
What I wanted to bring to your attention today is a focus on the amount of power we wield. In 1839 Edward Bulwer-Lytton wrote:

I came across this youtube video and thought of you guys.
The video showcases the best way to get VO sound from 5 different types of microphones:
- Neumann U87
- Sennheiser ME66 Shotgun
- Sennheiser 421
- Rode Podcaster
- MXL UBS .009
The video is presented by Jeff Dykhouse from howaudio.com. Jeff has a whole bunch of tutorials on his website.. not all targeted toward the VO artist but it all has to do with audio so you will find a few ProTools tutorials up there which I know a few of my readers use to record their VO work.
