Just a hint: get rid of the music first and THEN we can hear the sound of your mic

Hmmm... well: initially, it sounds ok, but it's a bit hard to tell from a 9 second sample. If you really want a fair review, write a 30-second script, talk as you would do if it was a 1000$ production (don't move your head while talking, make a decent mp3-file - not a bad-sounding 128 kb/s), and i'll sharpen my knife in the meantime

Stop moving your head back and forth, or from side to side. Your voice fades in and out. Also, get a script. Practice it and then record it. And I mean record it as if someone is going to give you money or their 18 year old daughter in return....

Jason
From a forensic stand point, it sounds good. I could hear the change in volume that others hear, and in the last bit a back ground noise.
On the head of the cut there is some audio that is in the clear, just after you muted the head. Looking at that bit and amplifying the wave it does have a noise floor but not that much.
When you do the read, slate the work and hold for several second before you read. Let us hear the room tone. That will give a good indication. Some folks can hear fairly high frequency some can not. Analogue broadcast limit audio after 12K (I may be off on the number) and the digital may still be limited because the SMPTE curve called X curve is used in setting up production and playback in film and television
Not knowing how you sound in person I have no real reference to the reproductive quality. However it did not sound Tubby to me
I am fortunate to have several hi end microphones and some very low end microphones to reference to. My closet includes RCA44 (ribbon), AKG 414 EB and ULS, AKG 451EB and Peluso 22-251(tube modeled after the Telefunken ELMA 251)
