Who are you?

Hi! I'm Pie (yes that's how you say my name)
I'm 24, a greylag goose, australian, and a new voice actor!

Where are you from?

I'm from Australia, Still in Australia. Help.

What's the meaning behind "hi im pie"?

I discovered the name pie back in highschool when I was with a friend of mine and we were making a channel together, I was eating a pie and I decided to make it that name, later on, I eventually became "hi im pie" when I started doing gaming content, because back then I was doing memes and YouTube Poops lol

Whats your fav game of ALL TIME?

This game has to be Just Cause 3, I grew up with it during High School and it taught me that games can be fun and stupid and silly and you can literally break it quite easily (that rhymed)But RECENTLY I've been obsessed with ZATO so much like holy moly

Introverted or extroverted?

In real life I'm more reserved which means I am introverted, but when I'm online, a different side comes out of me I'd guess that's more extroverted, so maybe both? I can't tell

Streamer Advice Time - What are some tips for an upcoming/new streamer to the block?

REWORD THIS FOR VA LOLI know I don't make vids or stream anymore but thought to keep this on here as it is more than relevant!!! Hopefully you find this useful :]One, Be yourself, I know like everyone says that these days but really if you can learn how to express yourself and your personality, you'll stand out really quickly.Two, take care of yourself more, and allow yourself to take breaks.Three, it's not about how long you can stream, it's about what's in the stream that matters, the meat, the inside of it, than the duration of it, because sure you could be doing heaps of marathon streams, but that is probably not great for you, mentally and physically (unless the marathon is get fit or go see therapy on stream).Four, don't worry about the numbers, they're there more for decoration (at least for now), instead worry about the people who join and be apart of your community!Five, try to make a few YouTube videos, here and there, people will discover you more through those means than through streaming alone (twitch discovery SUCKS)

Gear

What's your setup like?

Note - You don't need majority of the crap I've got, you can start off really small! All you need is a decent mic, something to record with, somewhere well treated and the energy!
The gear list is as follows:

Why did you pick what gear?

The laptop I specifically bought for gaming/for my freelance lighting designs. I also use it to record onCurrently I have the Audio Technica AT2020, I bought it roughly in 2023 for content creation and now using it for voice acting. I did buy a Rode NT1 but it was dead on arrival, so I sent it back and got a refund, but instead of buying another one, I decided that I have to work for it through voice acting, otherwise it doesn't make sense for the upgrade.Audio interface I had a GOXLR prior that I worked my butt for and gave it to myself as a birthday gift but been having problems with it lately, so going to sell it off. Recently bought a Elgato XLR Dock with the Stream Deck Dials and I've been very happy, especially with the 32 bit float and easy to add vst support, routing and everything else. Also I can control reaper with it over osc via companion!!!! Super awesome!!!Headphones I also bought originally for content creation but now I just use it on a daily basis, mainly because I have neighbours either side of me and also I just prefer listening with headphones.Bought Voca very recently because I was interested in a easy and effective de-esser and it is a really nice plugin, it doesn't add too much, much more subtle than anything. LittleAlterBoy from music production and same for KHS Suite.The closet is something I have to live with right now, I don't have enough space to really fully build a vocal booth, otherwise I'd would. Might consider buying one of those portable change rooms though since my closet is quite awkward to work in right now lol

If you had to start again with your choices, what'dcha pick?

If I was a baby, I would start off with probably a macbook neo/some lightweight budget laptop that would run reaper fine. Probably the Rode NT1 5th Gen with USB input as that is kind of goated esp with 32 bit float! I would also find maybe a slighter bigger place that had a walk in wardrobe/closet, instead of this crampt ahh one.But the things I have now I really like and I'm very grateful for all the opportunities in life to get me all of this!!!

You're really obsessed with gear, damn, what things do you want to grab in the future?

Firstly, straight away the Rode NT1, hopefully without it being dead on arrival next time, a room that's treated/vocal booth, second screen to read scripts from, and a coffee machine, I really want that coffee machine so badly, holy front door!!!! GIMME THE COFFEE!!!

The Most Important Questions Of All Time

Are you Gay?

I'm bisexual so close enough :D

Would you fight 100 duck-sized horses or 1 horse-sized duck?

I would fight 100 duck-sized horses since they're too small to do really anything, maybe bite/chew but that's really it, otherwise 1 horse-sized duck would be able to pick at you and eat you in one go pretty much since the beak would be quite large

Do you believe in ghosts?

Little bit yes, I've heard of stories at different locations by people I know very close to me, so a tiny little bit, I haven't personally experienced anything relating to ghosts just yet
