Was experimenting with sound in the studio. I sure miss Mike Sommer's presence here.

At least I absorbed a ton of good info while he was with us.

I am reminded of him daily. Shortly before his passing we had a dialogue about my studio rebuild. I always think of the super-chunks in the corners as my Sommer-chunks. It sounds weird, but that's how I internally reference them.

Just before Mike's untimely death, I had been re-reading some of his advice notes here to various folks with an eye toward either improving my current room or simply carving out a new voice space here. His advice was profuse and prolific and I'm still digesting the fact of his loss.

Ditto. I think part of me still doesn't quite believe it.

I read Mike's last blog (The Voice Over Audio Blog) entry here and was surprised at how detailed his advice could get.

I think I'm echoing CC's comment about "His advice was profuse and prolific"

Mike designed my new studio, we'll be building it out during Christmas break. I really wanted him to hear the results.

It's going to be great and I miss his guidance.

I looked forward to reading his responses, and was always amazed by the details.
