I assume all these agreements were in writing though? I know that when I've done commercials it usually states exactly the terms with regard to length of use and renewal rates, etc.

I'm also assumi ...

It's a sad state of affairs that because audio is less (or completely, if we're being accurate) 'visible' than say, an on-screen commercial, we have to train our ears or the ears of those close to us, ...

I'll never forget him as the narrator in the Space Quest video games, as Powdered Toast Man and many, many others. When I was a kid I wanted to sound like he did.

I can attempt to try and treat a corner of my room, it's a very small studio apartment, so there's no other rooms to speak of.

I also know a couple of the engineers at the local studios, so that's ...

Well chief among the reasons I want to enlist George is that his services range from booth tuning and sound solutions, since my booth is a crawl space under some stairs that's 5'5" tall, 4 feet w ...

It's probably time to reveal the mics in question yes?

The mics in the first clip (the narration read), were:

Mic 1 - CAD e100s
Mic 2 - Sennheiser MKH416
Mic 3 - Rode NTG-3

For the second t ...

Foog!

I dropped off the radar here late last year for a while (around the time you posted this issue!), I am sorry I did, for I had a problem with my CADe100s as well last year!

I wonder what mic pre you use that requires a gain knob position of 9:00 to get adequate levels. Methinks your gain staging might be a wee off....
