Re: What equipment do I need to do voice-overs?
To me, the key elements for voice recordings are good mics and good preamp; since those are the most responsable elements in the chain for a good quality signal, before the A/D conversion; if you can afford it get at least a couple of good mics, one with a more defined upper range response for male voices (i.e. AKG 414 tL ), another with a solid low mid area, for female (Neumann U 87 for example); a good multi purpose condenser mic will work well though (Rode Nt1, MXL v 67 etc..); get a good preamp (Avalon 7V7, if you can afford, tL Audio, Focusrite, Joemeek VC1, there's loads to choose from), it's not a bad idea to get one with an EQ/ Comp section , so as to be able to fine tune the tone before going HD. As long as these pieces of gear are good, you are set with either AM III or 001, once digital you can do wonders with all of the plugins in Pt.
Hope this helps.
