The Pro Audio Suite

They're the list of expectations if you want to work with a specific company. Usually quoting certain types of mics and file parameters for your audio.

Recently George came across the Netflix deliverables list, and we're scratching our heads!!

We've also created a survey so you can leave your mark on what will be a one-of-a-kind mic interface designed specifically for Voice Artists. We're hoping to release it later this year, and w...

Can you use a headset to record long form Voice Over work? The advantages are numerous, but there are also a few traps... We discuss them both.

We've also created a survey so you can leave your mark on what will be a one-of-a-kind mic interface designed specifically for Voice Artists. We're hoping to release it later this year, and would love your thoughts on what you like and don't like about your current rig, so we can ensure the...

RODE has just released the NT1 5th Generation Large-Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser XLR/USB Microphone. It fuses the classic sound signature of the legendary RODE NT1 with cutting-edge, next-generation technology. It features RODE’s groundbreaking Dual Connect output, offering both XLR and USB connectivity for connecting to an audio interface, mixer or console, and other audio equipment, or directly to a computer for plug-and-play rec...

A few weeks ago we did a review of the Rode NT-USB+, a very impressive USB mic from Rode. During the conversation, the guys wondered how it might hold up to the processing required to get a voice track to "cut" in a broadcast mix, and then the inevitable "on-air processing" at the transmitter.

Well whilst we can't simulate a transmitter we CAN do a broadcast mix... The results?? Well, you'll have to listen for those...

We're workin...

We're working on building the perfect interface exclusively for VO artists, we're fairly certain we have it nailed, but we also want to hear from you, the "working everyday" voice actors who are cursing your current interface whilst wishing for something better.

SO... we've created a survey so you can leave your mark on what will be a one-of-a-kind product that we're hoping to release late this year. Follow the link and let us know...

Last year we had WAVES guru Michael "Gomez" Adams on the show to talk about their new noise reduction plugin called "Clarity". In a moment of madness, Robbo suggested that we should try recording something on a plane and seeing what Clarity could do with it.... Well... Pro Audio Suite listener and friend of the show George Nowik took us up on the offer, and recorded some dialogue on a flight across the Mid West of the US, and dent ...

It's always a dilemma, you're gear is humming along nicely, everything is doing what it should, and then along comes an email asking you to update the firmware for security/any other reason and....BANG. Noting is ever the same!

So should you ALWAYS update your firmware? ANd if not, then when? Who does it best, and who is on Georges's hit list?

OK, so it's redundant technology, right? That ISDN box that served you so well for all those years is now just a door stop or boat anchor. Well, that's not EXACTLY true. Here's why...

What if you could create the perfect interface for VO artists? What would it have? What wouldn't it have? And what would it look like? This week George, Robert, AP, and Robbo discuss the possibilities...

USB mics have come a long way, and Røde has been a major player in their development. 

They recently released the USB+, and we were lucky enough to receive one each to put through its paces. The results are noteworthy. Hear for yourself. To help you make up your own mind we have left George's mic unprocessed so you can hear the results for yourself.

A big shout out to our sponsors, Austrian Audio and Tri Booth. Both these companies...

Yep, they're a sponsor of this podcast! Let me get that out of the way first off. BUT... They are also making some of the most groundbreaking (and in my humble opinion) some of the best Microphones and Headphones on the market today.

Austrian Audio recently released a new entry-level Mic, the OC16, so we took the opportunity to put it up against its stable mates the OC18 and OC818 to see how it stacks up...

As an Audio Engineer, I'm constantly puzzled as to why ZOOM has any place in the recording process. Crap sound, no chance of ever syncing pictures with audio, and to top it off they expect me to pay a premium for a lousy service... 

Well, Robbo has found an alternative, that delivers all the above and more...

We had a letter from a listener asking about recording Audio Books and our thoughts on using an NTG 5 v an AT 1. Having had vast experience with both, the guys took a deep dive into the why's and wherefore's of both...

Whilst it's true you can't use source connect on your 4 or 5G device, it seems you CAN still use a hotspot to use the same networks for your source connect session.

When we spoke with Richie from Studious the other week about APs new studio computer, he mentioned that he had figured out a way to make it work. Once we had talked Robert down from a jealousy frenzy, we decided to record an episode and get Richie to lay out his workaro...

One is possibly one of the most used studio interfaces on the planet. The other is strangely one of the most popular ways to connect to record Professional voiceovers outside of Hollywood. The problem is getting them to play nicely together is not as easy as you might think. Whilst Robbo is convinced the easiest solution and most professional is a copy of NEXUS, George has come up with a neat little workaround that gets you where y...

So after more than a week of angst, AP has finally got himself a MAC studio that almost sounds better than he does,(and is a shitload easier to deal with)!!! How did he turn it around?? Find out here!!
