How to calibrate a Voice Over Recording room

[MicWanderer]

Hello everyone!

I'm need to treat a room for voice over recording exclusively.
I'm not going to mix there or play audio of sort in there.

I'm thinking if it's possible to use REW to understand what's going on in that room to help me treat the space.

I'm putting forward this question because how audio is recorded for voice overs it's pretty different than how a mixing room works, as far as I understand it (and I might be wrong here).

There is some way to set up measurements, recording and analysing REW for a recording room only for voice over?

How about you give us some more information, please... Dimentions of your room and the equipment you intend to use... In my opinion, if its a room then its is like vocal in a studio... Could be in a booth... Otherwise, its in a booth... It needs to be sound prof.. As in _no_ noise ingress from the outside... Also needs to be dead flat inside, 20hz to 20khz... Unless your adding some special sauce like Rupert Neve / Manley... And yes, REW is your friend...

340 centimeters Lenght x 295cm Width x 285cm Height (yeah we're metric here)
Two main mic Austrian Audio OC18, CAD e100s, plus some dynamics (the usual culprits SM57 and such), an SPL Channel one as mic pre, the others goes directly to the interface clean for post processing in another room.

I'm going to figure out what si going on in this room with this setup for recording purposes ONLY given I'm not going to put any loudspeaker in that room.
I wondering how REW could be of help in measuring this. I've seen around a lot of measurement done with REW but all of them was tought with listening/mixing room in mind while I want only record there.

You should probably start at the beginning with REW...

Getting Started with REW

You will need a sound source, like a speaker hooked to your laptop and a microphone... You only need the speaker in the room while you sample the room with REW... There must be a guitar amp/speaker cab or monitor hanging around somewhere...

You could also use the REW Room Sim and/or have a go at this https://amcoustics.com/tools/amroc?l=340&w=295&h=285&re=ITU listening room... For a Vocal Room/Booth you will want a reverb time (RT60) of 0.1 to 0.2 seconds... So flat and dry...
