The number-one enemy of electronic equipment is heat. Dust is a close second. Try to set up your studio in a room that you can keep cool and fairly dust-free. Air conditioning is a must for most studios. Be careful with a window air conditioner, though, because it can make a lot of noise, requiring you to shut it off when you record. Depending on where you live, this can quickly warm your room. Regarding dust, try to cover your equipment when you’re not using it, especially your microphones. A plastic bag placed over the top of a mic on a stand works well.

You can also just put away your mics when you’re not using them. However, if you use a particular mic a lot, you’re better off leaving it on a stand rather than constantly handling it — some types of mics are pretty fragile. (You can find more details on caring for your mics in Chapter 6.)
