There are ample opportunities to refine, revise, and edit listings. How can he be expected to be taken seriously?

"...WATE TELL YOU HEAR A SMALL BODY GUITAR IN IT !"

Sorry. It's a pet peeve of mine and I see it every day on ebay, craigslist, and yes, very often in scripts I'm about to record.

IT REFRACTS SOUND THAT GOES "PAST" THE CONDENSOR BACK INTO THE MIC !!!AND BACK TO YOUR EARS!!

Yowzer...

I can even throw away my headphones! This fabulous device just gets better and better. I hope they aren't sold out by the time hell freezes over... which is when I will be placing my order.

BUT WATE! THARES MOORE! ONCE YOUR FINISHED RECORDING WITH IT, JUST REMOVE THE CONDENSER FROM THE STAND AND YOU CAN USE THE REFLECTOR AS A SNOE SHOVLE!! GET THOSE HARD TO REACH SPOTS BEHIND YOUR SHED AND REFLECT THE SOUNDS OF YOUR NAYBORHOOD AT THE SAME TIME!

And don't forget that you can use it when welding, and bee-keeping, as well. The slightly larger unit comes in handy for crowd control and riot containment.

Plus! We'll even include a set of Ginzu knives guarenteed to make fast work of that pesky copy that needs a close trim!

Don't get me wrong, in our last post regarding refractor shields, I'd made the comment that I would love it if they could build them out of a transparent material...

this is not quite what I had in mind. Rolls Eyes

Recording voiceovers becomes extremely difficult when you're working from a remote location. You have little to no control of environment issues like room noise, sound reflection from untreated walls, etc. The need for a portable booth is critical, so that high quality voiceover recording can continue while traveling. The "StoneBooth In A Bag", was designed by national voiceover artist Steve Stone and custom built by Gretch-Ken Industries "GK Acoustics". The "StoneBooth In A Bag" is a three sided portable table top sound isolation enclosure, with an isolation curtain on the back side. The entire enclosure folds up into a custom manufactured portable bag. Safe to ship, or gate-check at airports. It's also perfect if your current studio can't accommodate a full sized voiceover booth.

Didn't they create these a long time ago on Get Smart???



Or if you needed a portable solution...
