Hiding under a bath towel with your iPad and microphone gear, with very little oxygen is wild. It always sounds great though and kills all the echos.

I struggle to filter out background noise when I’m speaking or signing. Being in noisy places can make concentrating difficult. Im not wanting to block sound completely.
