t.akustik Vocal Head Booth: Hands-on demos t.7. If you truly want to reduce room ambience on speech and vocals, it’s an excellent option.
MusicRadar verdict: It may not be the most portable room acoustic device we’ve tried, but it is by far one of the most effective.
Overall it’s a solid effort that we're very impressed by. The Vocal Head Booth reduces mic ambience, delivering a tight sound, and is a fraction of the cost of more permanent room treatment or an isolation booth. We guess the only other thing is it’s quite large, so you need somewhere to store it. However, there’s no denying the Vocal Head Booth considerably reduces the room ambience that gets on the mic, quite an achievement. Nevertheless, this as well as the slightly claustrophobic environment inside the hood are worth mentioning. It’s certainly not a deal-breaker, and it should come as no surprise that the booth has its own acoustic response. Next up, aside from the reduced room sound, the mic does sound different inside the hood, with a boost in the low mid frequencies. How does this translate to the mic sound? Firstly, there is an obvious difference when you add the rear slotted section behind your head, meaning you essentially have two degrees of reduction. Just listening without headphones, it really does take away the ambience in the room.
So how does it deliver sonically? The first thing to notice once you get your head inside the space is how dead it is. Finally, there’s a slot-in piece of PET that goes behind your head and can be adjusted up or down, or removed. Inside the hood, you’ve got a magnetic clip high up behind the mic for your lyric sheet, and there’s also a magnet to mount the included battery-powered LED spotlight.
The baseboard has a 30mm wide slot, which helps neatly accommodate not only your popshield arm and mic cable but allows you to introduce a regular mic stand into the space if desired. Then on the underside of the baseboard is a pop filter mounting bar and a large headphone hook. Firstly, it includes a slide-in mic holder with 50mm of height adjustment. The hood has a number of rather cool features. (Image credit: Future) t.akustik Vocal Head Booth: Performance and verdict
