The solution is to make some time and do it, despite how strange my family think I am for sitting in my little home office and recording myself. OK, so I don’t have a problem that’s impossible to solve. Actually, looking through my GarageBand files, I should say that I’ve been trying to find the time for four years! I can’t believe that it’s been four years since I last sent in an audio contribution to the Nosillacast. My problem is that I’ve been trying to find the time to send in a submission to the Nosillacast all year. Well, in true Nosillacast fashion, I need to start my contribution by identifying the problem to be solved.
It’s Doug Ingram here from Sydney, Australia, the land of December summers and the starting point for one very auspicious Mac Mania cruise this year. Hi there Allison, Steve, all the Nosillacastaways and anyone else listening to, reading or otherwise consuming this podcast. It still works this week but my apologies to Doug for not playing it on time. He sent this in for last week’s show and unfortunately I forgot to play it. Next up I’d like to play a recording from Doug Ingram, aka on Twitter and in the live chatroom.
my PR-20 Plus the GIANT pop filter I had and the springy thingy (vibration isolator) – now it’s all sleek and cool looking. It’s way cool looking so it’s worth it either way! I love how compact it is not vs. The PR-40 also has two screens between the front and the diaphragm acting as pop filters built in – but Steve got me the pop filter to go with the PR-40 so it’s hard to tell if I needed it or not. I did a test to see if you could hear me typing while I was recording and it appears to be isolated really well. I did read about the two mics in comparison and the PR-40 has a couple of interesting features – the diaphragm of the mic is vibration isolated from the body of the mic, so I’m working without one of those spring thingys I had on the PR-20. PR-20) so I could explain to you why the PR-40 is so much cooler, but I’m too lazy to actually spend any time reading and learning. I wish I knew more about microphones, like what the frequency response curves mean ( PR-40 vs.
It’s not like I was suffering, he got me the PR-20 a few years ago and I’ve been really happy with it. You may have noticed that my audio sounds a bit better – that’s because Steve got me the Heil PR-40 microphone. I don’t think anything gives him as much pleasure as giving the perfect gift. Hope you can come! Heil PR-40Īs usual Steve was way too generous with me this Christmas. There’s also a tab in the menu bar right to the sign up page too.
