Sound Advice For The Audiophile

Man, it took forever to nail this interview down! We both have hectic schedules, but after numerous tries we were able to sit down and have a great chat. My usual episodes rarely last more than 20 minutes. I kept trying to cut this one short to save the rest for future talks, yet this conversation lasted over 2 hours! This is a must listen for anyone thinking about getting into the business of mak...

It was a trip, but it was made so m...

This is a quick episode, getting back into the hang of it. I lightly reiterated the importance of clear, consistent audio for any recorded video or livestream. Also, after my THIRD trip to go see Jordan Peele's new film, Nope, I talk about some technical things in the film I loved and teased a full film review in the next episode.

In this episode, I detail how I did a live multitrack session on just my iPhone, recording a church service. I also touch on the current status of music culture and that there is a collective loss of respect for artists from only 15 years prior.

In the latest edition of the Sound Advice podcast, I touch on an issue dealing with vibration affecting video equipment and how to possibly solve it. Also, I reemphasize the importance of using multitrack stems during live performances, in particular in the Black Praise and Worship Community.

Quick breakdown on when and how to use hanging choir mics.

Welcome to the Sound Advice  podcast, with your host Marc Saunders. We have previous episodes on various platforms, but decided to revamp the podcast using Anchor as the facilitator.
