I would like feedback, if there's anything that really needs to be corrected/improved, but do keep in mind when relaying it that I am something of a perfectionist and often, to my detriment, end up obsessing over perfecting things that are already fine the way they are. So yeah, basically, just be honest--if it really needs to be corrected, I want to know, and if it's fine the way it is, I want to know that, too.

Are you running a compressor on this? Sounds like it's choking your consonants. Attack time might be too short. Try 20-30 ms. Sounds like it's less than 10.

To VA contacting my buddy, thanks. He's really glad for the interest. He's probably told you, but he's looking for something like the narrator here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ukR64lVcC4

 I usually have a starting value of 50 ms attack, 500 ms release when doing voice compression, and work my way from there. Maybe it's hammering down too hard too. Try 4:1 ratio and set the threshold so it pushed down 6-9dB at max.
