Hi.

00:00:03,700 --> 00:00:04,780
Hello, everyone.

These guys are professional.
10
00:00:07,980 --> 00:00:08,640
They're motivated.
11
00:00:08,820 --> 00:00:11,280

voiceover talent and home studio guy.

00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:33,040
Line up, man.
21
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:33,980
Here we go.
22
00:00:35,740 --> 00:00:38,620
And welcome to another Pro Audio Suite, thanks
23
00:00:38,620 --> 00:00:39,740
to Tribooth.
24
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,260
Don't forget the code, T-R-I-P
25
00:00:42,260 --> 00:00:43,120
-A-P 200.
26
00:00:43,660 --> 00:00:46,240
That will get you $200 off your Tribooth.
27
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,080
And Austrian Audio, making passion heard.
28
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:50,920
In fact, you'll be hearing it slightly differently
29
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,400
with some new headphones that are releasing very
30
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:53,720
soon.
31
00:00:54,380 --> 00:00:55,840
More passionately, yes.
32
00:00:57,060 --> 00:00:59,260
It's going to be based on the Hi
33
00:00:59,260 --> 00:01:00,920
-X 15, but they're doing a bit of
34
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:02,640
tweaking to it, changing a few things.
35
00:01:03,019 --> 00:01:06,260
Color scheme, the internals, and also a longer
36
00:01:06,260 --> 00:01:06,660
cable.
37
00:01:06,820 --> 00:01:07,320
Three meters.
38
00:01:08,380 --> 00:01:10,240
That's a three meter long cable.
39
00:01:10,460 --> 00:01:10,900
That's great.
40
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:12,680
Does it also come with a cable management
41
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:13,480
system?
42
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:14,720
Like a hose reel.
43
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:16,020
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
44
00:01:16,820 --> 00:01:17,680
Like a fishing reel.
45
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:18,840
Like a vacuum cleaner.
46
00:01:19,660 --> 00:01:21,940
Yeah, that, now we're talking.
47
00:01:22,740 --> 00:01:23,200
Yeah.
48
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:27,460
So anyway, Austrian Audio have kindly given us
49
00:01:27,460 --> 00:01:29,220
a pair to give away when they're released.
50
00:01:29,340 --> 00:01:31,700
I think they're launching at AES, so by
51
00:01:31,700 --> 00:01:33,100
the time this goes out, I think we'll
52
00:01:33,100 --> 00:01:34,700
be pretty close to that date, which is
53
00:01:34,700 --> 00:01:35,260
early October.
54
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:37,500
So we'll be giving a pair of those
55
00:01:37,500 --> 00:01:37,740
away.
56
00:01:37,980 --> 00:01:39,860
And how do you enter to win these
57
00:01:39,860 --> 00:01:41,200
headphones, you may well ask?
58
00:01:41,980 --> 00:01:44,020
Well, simply, we're asking you to do a
59
00:01:44,020 --> 00:01:44,640
bit of a mix.
60
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,040
Robbo, do you want to play your mix?
61
00:01:47,260 --> 00:01:47,700
Yeah, okay.
62
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,300
Well, let's just play this piece of audio.
63
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:59,040
Experience a new destination for adventure, nature, science,
64
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,120
and culture.
65
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:10,640
National Geographic today, tonight at seven on the
66
00:02:10,640 --> 00:02:11,940
National Geographic Channel.
67
00:02:13,940 --> 00:02:14,600
Always wonder.
68
00:02:14,940 --> 00:02:15,740
All right, so there you go.
69
00:02:15,820 --> 00:02:17,000
That's what we're looking at doing.
70
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,560
And just so we're clear, I'm not giving
71
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,600
away any corporate secrets here.
72
00:02:20,700 --> 00:02:22,480
That piece was actually from like a year
73
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:22,760
ago.
74
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,240
So I'm not giving anything away.
75
00:02:25,380 --> 00:02:27,680
That's been to air and gone, so just
76
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:27,940
so we're clear.
77
00:02:27,940 --> 00:02:29,880
Interesting that she chose to run the voice
78
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,300
through a Leslie speaker.
79
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:32,940
That's an interesting choice.
80
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,360
Well, we revoiced it too, because I wasn't
81
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:36,880
sure about, you know, I didn't want anybody
82
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,700
to get in trouble with voiceover artists who
83
00:02:39,700 --> 00:02:41,580
hadn't authorized us to play their stuff on
84
00:02:41,580 --> 00:02:42,040
their podcast.
85
00:02:42,180 --> 00:02:44,320
So AP kindly revoiced it for us as
86
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:44,460
well.
87
00:02:44,500 --> 00:02:44,900
Well done.
88
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,220
Yeah, so that was good.
89
00:02:46,220 --> 00:02:48,720
So yeah, but so I guess, I mean,
90
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:50,040
no one's saying match mine.
91
00:02:50,140 --> 00:02:52,400
In fact, that's exactly the point we don't
92
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:52,620
want.
93
00:02:52,700 --> 00:02:55,280
What we'd love to hear is your interpretation
94
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,240
from the conversation we had a few weeks
95
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:02,240
ago when we did the process off with
96
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:02,980
AP's voice.
97
00:03:03,220 --> 00:03:05,860
The idea with this one is, let's hear
98
00:03:05,860 --> 00:03:07,780
your interpretation of how you would mix that.
99
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,020
Now, we're not just talking to audio engineers.
100
00:03:10,140 --> 00:03:10,920
Let's be clear here.
101
00:03:10,920 --> 00:03:12,660
We want submissions from everybody.
102
00:03:12,780 --> 00:03:14,000
We just want you to have a crack.
103
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,800
I mean, the goal is basically to do
104
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:16,660
a better job than you.
105
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:17,640
Well, that won't be hard.
106
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,560
So, you know, I'm not worried about that.
107
00:03:22,380 --> 00:03:22,520
Yeah.
108
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:27,620
So, but yeah, everybody, no matter where you're
109
00:03:27,620 --> 00:03:29,300
from, what you do, you know, chuck on
110
00:03:29,300 --> 00:03:30,980
a pair of headphones, throw it in Audacity
111
00:03:30,980 --> 00:03:32,780
or whatever you use and have a crack.
112
00:03:32,860 --> 00:03:33,480
Just have a go.
113
00:03:34,660 --> 00:03:35,360
It'll be judged.
114
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:36,760
I don't know what we'll judge it on,
115
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,160
but it'll be judged on something that, you
116
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:40,300
know.
117
00:03:40,540 --> 00:03:41,800
Well, we're not judging it.
118
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,520
Well, we're going to wear what we'll in
119
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,400
association with the guys at Austrian Audio.
120
00:03:45,620 --> 00:03:45,720
Yeah.
121
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,260
They're going to one of their guys is
122
00:03:47,260 --> 00:03:49,480
going to jump on and have a chat
123
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,640
about the new headphones and we'll play a
124
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,120
few finalists and pick a winner.
125
00:03:54,420 --> 00:03:56,100
I would imagine they're going to listen to
126
00:03:56,100 --> 00:03:57,320
them on the new headphones.
127
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:58,040
I think we have to.
128
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,480
So if you want to win this, maybe
129
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:01,860
you should buy those headphones.
130
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,140
That would be hard because they're not out
131
00:04:04,140 --> 00:04:04,460
yet.
132
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:05,040
Yeah.
133
00:04:05,540 --> 00:04:05,780
Yeah.
134
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,100
Oh, they're in Fargo until they release at
135
00:04:09,100 --> 00:04:09,500
AES.
136
00:04:09,500 --> 00:04:12,340
So this file you're going to hear of
137
00:04:12,340 --> 00:04:14,500
everybody's mixes will be, is that going to
138
00:04:14,500 --> 00:04:16,779
be before the embargo or after the embargo?
139
00:04:16,779 --> 00:04:17,839
It'll be after the embargo.
140
00:04:18,079 --> 00:04:18,800
After the embargo.
141
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:19,100
Yeah.
142
00:04:19,100 --> 00:04:20,519
So, but we, you know, we'll all have
143
00:04:20,519 --> 00:04:22,940
our Austrian Audio headphones on, you know, they
144
00:04:22,940 --> 00:04:24,480
just won't be the new ones, I guess,
145
00:04:24,860 --> 00:04:27,620
but I guess what we're really looking for
146
00:04:27,620 --> 00:04:28,560
at the end of the day is just
147
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,140
have some fun, seriously, just have a crack,
148
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,100
you know, cause it's, you know, it's not
149
00:04:33,100 --> 00:04:33,760
brain surgery.
150
00:04:33,900 --> 00:04:35,040
It's just audio.
151
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,360
So, you know, the stems are all separate
152
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:37,780
by the way.
153
00:04:37,780 --> 00:04:38,620
So it's not like you've got to load
154
00:04:38,620 --> 00:04:39,580
up a lot of stuff for that.
155
00:04:39,980 --> 00:04:42,160
You just will put the stems in your
156
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,960
session and line them all up at the
157
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,780
same start point and everything will fall into
158
00:04:45,780 --> 00:04:46,020
place.
159
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,000
So there's a music stem, there's a dialogue
160
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,680
stem, there's AP stem, and I think there's
161
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,080
a sound effects stem from memory.
162
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,060
So there's only four and a weed stem.
163
00:04:58,740 --> 00:04:59,340
So yeah.
164
00:04:59,420 --> 00:05:01,060
So, but yeah, I'd encourage you to have
165
00:05:01,060 --> 00:05:02,900
a go and, and, and let's see what
166
00:05:02,900 --> 00:05:03,800
we can come up with.
167
00:05:04,300 --> 00:05:06,320
Now, Robert, because by the time this goes
168
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:07,880
to air, of course, all the stuff that's
169
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,300
happening as we speak has been and gone,
170
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,100
but you're currently in London.
171
00:05:13,280 --> 00:05:13,740
I am.
172
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,200
I didn't even think I'd be on this
173
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,960
because I thought I'd be too sweet or
174
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:19,320
something, but exactly.
175
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,040
But no, we just got back from the
176
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:28,200
IBC show in Amsterdam and that was really
177
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:28,400
cool.
178
00:05:28,420 --> 00:05:30,720
Tell us about the scope of IBC for
179
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,280
those that haven't been able to go.
180
00:05:32,280 --> 00:05:32,780
Yeah.
181
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,900
You know, it's really, really, really heavy duty
182
00:05:35,900 --> 00:05:37,020
broadcaster.
183
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:38,640
So it's their NAB?
184
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:39,940
It's their NAB.
185
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:40,820
But you know what?
186
00:05:40,980 --> 00:05:42,360
Like one thing I was kind of disappointed
187
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,160
in, not a lot of small booths, not
188
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,320
a lot of like little small players.
189
00:05:47,500 --> 00:05:50,500
Like NAB's got more of the little things
190
00:05:50,500 --> 00:05:53,300
that I find really exciting, you know, but
191
00:05:53,300 --> 00:05:55,520
it was all the major huge players and,
192
00:05:55,540 --> 00:05:58,420
and I, I, today I finally had a
193
00:05:58,420 --> 00:06:00,980
chance to do the big walk around and
194
00:06:00,980 --> 00:06:02,300
it is as big as NAB.
195
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:03,420
Wow.
196
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:03,920
Wow.
197
00:06:04,220 --> 00:06:04,820
That's big.
198
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,280
But I'm trying to think if there's anything
199
00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:09,520
that I saw that was like, holy cow.
200
00:06:11,660 --> 00:06:13,240
And I'll get back to you.
201
00:06:15,280 --> 00:06:16,200
It's all blur.
202
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:17,020
I can't think.
203
00:06:17,620 --> 00:06:17,900
Yeah.
204
00:06:18,180 --> 00:06:18,380
Yeah.
205
00:06:18,500 --> 00:06:18,600
Yeah.
206
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,940
Like, I don't know, sound devices is doing
207
00:06:20,940 --> 00:06:23,560
their own wireless hookups and they named it
208
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:23,900
Nexus.
209
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:25,040
Oh.
210
00:06:25,980 --> 00:06:26,120
Really?
211
00:06:27,020 --> 00:06:27,540
Yeah, I know.
212
00:06:28,660 --> 00:06:30,940
But, you know, like that, that was new
213
00:06:30,940 --> 00:06:32,620
and kind of in our area.
214
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,600
When you say hookups, like transmitter speaks directly
215
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,000
to their receiver mixers, like a mixer with
216
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:38,980
receivers built in.
217
00:06:39,140 --> 00:06:41,780
You know how they have their, their recorder
218
00:06:41,780 --> 00:06:44,840
mixer and then they have this, I think
219
00:06:44,840 --> 00:06:46,640
it's called the Nexus module and it has
220
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,280
some pins on it and it just docks
221
00:06:49,280 --> 00:06:50,600
right on the top of this thing and
222
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,900
has all the receivers for the wireless packs
223
00:06:52,900 --> 00:06:54,860
and it adds like a whole bunch of
224
00:06:54,860 --> 00:06:56,240
tracks for you to be able to record
225
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:56,700
on too.
226
00:06:56,700 --> 00:06:57,380
That's smart.
227
00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:58,620
That's really smart.
228
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,960
Because in the meantime, for the consumers, any
229
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:05,420
Rodecaster Pro 2 can receive a wireless Rode
230
00:07:05,420 --> 00:07:08,120
wireless mic as an input.
231
00:07:08,940 --> 00:07:10,820
So it just becomes another channel.
232
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:12,320
Oh, like a year ago.
233
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,780
So you only need the transmitter, only the
234
00:07:15,780 --> 00:07:16,800
transmitter receiver.
235
00:07:17,020 --> 00:07:17,120
Yeah.
236
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:18,360
You want to, you want to turn that
237
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,540
transmitter into a, just another input to your
238
00:07:20,540 --> 00:07:22,420
Rodecaster and clip it to your shirt for
239
00:07:22,420 --> 00:07:25,720
like a, on camera or standing or something.
240
00:07:26,140 --> 00:07:27,860
It's another channel in your Rodecaster.
241
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:29,240
Wow.
242
00:07:29,380 --> 00:07:32,500
I've, I've never heard a, of anybody selling
243
00:07:32,500 --> 00:07:34,500
a wireless mic, only the transmitter and not
244
00:07:34,500 --> 00:07:35,100
the receiver.
245
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:35,700
No.
246
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,260
But I guess Rode must do that.
247
00:07:37,300 --> 00:07:38,100
I don't think they do.
248
00:07:38,420 --> 00:07:40,380
I think it's just like, because we can,
249
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:42,220
now we're doing this.
250
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:43,780
But it clearly doesn't go out the multi
251
00:07:43,780 --> 00:07:44,360
-track though.
252
00:07:44,700 --> 00:07:45,600
It only comes in.
253
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:47,100
So how's it go?
254
00:07:47,100 --> 00:07:48,500
Well, it's another pair of channels.
255
00:07:48,660 --> 00:07:51,360
It takes the place of another pair of
256
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:51,820
channels.
257
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:52,180
Right.
258
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,820
Where's the antenna on the Rodecaster?
259
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,420
It's probably using the Wi-Fi or the
260
00:07:57,420 --> 00:08:02,480
Bluetooth band or something, you know, you know,
261
00:08:02,740 --> 00:08:03,900
Rode is clever.
262
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:05,200
Rode's slick.
263
00:08:05,380 --> 00:08:06,120
They're really clever.
264
00:08:06,580 --> 00:08:08,140
I love that I can plug my, I
265
00:08:08,140 --> 00:08:09,880
have the wireless me, which is the cheapest
266
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:10,940
wireless set up they have.
267
00:08:10,980 --> 00:08:13,280
It's like 150 and I can plug the
268
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,220
receiver directly into my phone.
269
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,900
I can plug the receiver directly into my
270
00:08:17,900 --> 00:08:18,400
Mac book.
271
00:08:18,660 --> 00:08:19,700
It doesn't matter.
272
00:08:19,820 --> 00:08:21,200
And then I can, now I have a
273
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,980
wireless mic going into a track and it's,
274
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,180
what's the receiver like a USB receiver, basically?
275
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,100
The transmitter receivers look identical.
276
00:08:28,340 --> 00:08:30,460
It's like a little inch cube, you know,
277
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,840
that has the jacks and then the wireless
278
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:34,740
me is unique in that the wireless receiver
279
00:08:34,740 --> 00:08:35,740
also has a mic.
280
00:08:36,860 --> 00:08:39,059
So you can use a second channel, you
281
00:08:39,059 --> 00:08:40,080
know, for doing interviews.
282
00:08:40,340 --> 00:08:42,280
Like I would have the wireless me receiver
283
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,640
on my phone and that would be right
284
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:45,560
in front of my face.
285
00:08:45,620 --> 00:08:46,960
And that's picking up my voice.
286
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,000
Transmitters over on my subject and it's picking
287
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:50,960
up their voice.
288
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,300
And then I record and record split, split
289
00:08:54,300 --> 00:08:56,180
track or mix, depending on what you set
290
00:08:56,180 --> 00:08:56,840
it up to do.
291
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,620
They're just really clever, you know, but it's
292
00:08:59,620 --> 00:09:03,160
still considered consumer or prosumer.
293
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,160
Even though they have the wireless pro, the
294
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,280
wireless GoPro, I think if you showed up
295
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,960
at a movie set in Hollywood with anything
296
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,480
wrote on it, you wouldn't, you wouldn't pass
297
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:15,940
muster.
298
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:16,440
Yeah.
299
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:16,800
Yeah.
300
00:09:17,540 --> 00:09:19,660
Sound mixers on a Hollywood film production are
301
00:09:19,660 --> 00:09:22,540
hauling around a hundred grand worth of stuff
302
00:09:22,540 --> 00:09:24,460
pretty, pretty commonly.
303
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,220
Like it's, it's a level I never made
304
00:09:27,220 --> 00:09:27,580
it to.
305
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,420
I was in production mixing for a while.
306
00:09:29,620 --> 00:09:32,040
I never graduated to that level.
307
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,560
You know, it just, I was using Sennheiser
308
00:09:35,560 --> 00:09:38,220
evolution wireless, this stuff, you know, stuff that
309
00:09:38,220 --> 00:09:39,520
was affordable, but decent.
310
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:41,760
And I could get away with it.
311
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,080
There's a distinct gatekeeping in terms of gear,
312
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,760
gear, brand, and quality when you're at this
313
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,820
very high level of production where every minute
314
00:09:49,820 --> 00:09:51,600
on set costs 10 grand or whatever.
315
00:09:51,980 --> 00:09:54,380
It's just, there's a certain level that you
316
00:09:54,380 --> 00:09:55,100
have to reach.
317
00:09:55,380 --> 00:09:56,720
You know, the cameras are going to be
318
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,480
RE, RED, Panavision, maybe a Sony.
319
00:10:00,660 --> 00:10:01,060
I don't know.
320
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,140
There's a pretty slim pickings of what gear
321
00:10:04,140 --> 00:10:05,460
passes muster.
322
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,480
I mean, actually sound devices is almost like
323
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,860
an income is almost like an invader into
324
00:10:10,860 --> 00:10:11,160
this.
325
00:10:11,500 --> 00:10:15,860
Because really it's like Nagra and Diva and
326
00:10:15,860 --> 00:10:19,900
Zaxcom and sound devices, which really makes excellent
327
00:10:19,900 --> 00:10:22,760
shit as far as the hardware, but they're
328
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:24,820
kind of the new, they're still the new
329
00:10:24,820 --> 00:10:25,360
kid on the block.
330
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,160
They've been around since I got into Hollywood
331
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:28,880
about 20 years, cause I had one of
332
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,380
their three channel mixers and it was fantastic.
333
00:10:31,560 --> 00:10:31,740
Right.
334
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,720
Um, but it was just a mixer, you
335
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,900
know, it didn't record, you know, and so
336
00:10:36,900 --> 00:10:40,020
the gear package has shrunk, but the functionality
337
00:10:40,020 --> 00:10:41,440
is doubled and tripled.
338
00:10:42,140 --> 00:10:45,180
And now you're guys doing reality TV, which
339
00:10:45,180 --> 00:10:49,000
is an absolute shit show of lavalier microphones
340
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,740
are running eight, 10, 12 channels into a
341
00:10:51,740 --> 00:10:54,200
bag that they're carrying around strapped to their
342
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:58,300
chest, you know, like a harness and mixing
343
00:10:58,300 --> 00:10:58,980
all that shit.
344
00:10:59,140 --> 00:11:01,080
And sometimes also holding a boom over their
345
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:01,320
head.
346
00:11:01,940 --> 00:11:04,040
So it's a whole nother world.
347
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,440
And of course everything's multitrack, a hundred percent,
348
00:11:07,500 --> 00:11:08,320
everything's multitrack.
349
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,720
So it's all changed dramatically in the 20
350
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,860
years I've been, but it's cool to see
351
00:11:12,860 --> 00:11:13,920
the innovations happening.
352
00:11:14,300 --> 00:11:15,740
I like sound devices very much.
353
00:11:15,820 --> 00:11:18,440
It's a great company, very well regarded, and
354
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,180
they have an entry point level called the
355
00:11:20,180 --> 00:11:21,000
mix pre series.
356
00:11:21,220 --> 00:11:23,060
So if you're on that, if you don't
357
00:11:23,060 --> 00:11:24,760
have the budget for the two to 5
358
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:26,540
,000, you can go under a thousand and
359
00:11:26,540 --> 00:11:27,240
get a mix pre.
360
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,800
What's cool about them is their preamps are
361
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:31,500
very good.
362
00:11:31,500 --> 00:11:31,700
Yeah.
363
00:11:31,700 --> 00:11:32,320
Yeah.
364
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:32,700
Yeah.
365
00:11:32,700 --> 00:11:34,240
Really top match.
366
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:35,680
Well, you know, I look at the products
367
00:11:35,680 --> 00:11:38,160
we're developing or the first product anywhere we're
368
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,480
developing with centrants and I really look at
369
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,980
centrants as sort of like akin to that
370
00:11:42,980 --> 00:11:47,480
level in terms of build quality, professionalism, circuit
371
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,040
design, and everything, but going a different way
372
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:51,960
because, you know, the centrant stuff is analog
373
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:52,740
internally.
374
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,060
It's analog, you know, right now that stuff's
375
00:11:56,060 --> 00:11:57,480
being vetted and tested.
376
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,500
In fact, by the time you hear this
377
00:11:59,500 --> 00:12:01,660
very good chance, we're going to have that
378
00:12:01,660 --> 00:12:03,780
things, those things in our hot little hands.
379
00:12:03,900 --> 00:12:06,500
It might be available by Christmas.
380
00:12:07,020 --> 00:12:07,180
Yeah.
381
00:12:07,180 --> 00:12:08,400
I think before that actually.
382
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:09,760
Before that, it's really going to come down
383
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:10,740
to this first round.
384
00:12:11,020 --> 00:12:15,420
If this product, the beta product or the
385
00:12:15,420 --> 00:12:17,040
pilot, what do we call it?
386
00:12:17,700 --> 00:12:18,120
Prototype.
387
00:12:18,340 --> 00:12:18,500
Prototype.
388
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:19,360
It's a prototype.
389
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:21,180
That's out well.
390
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,240
I mean, we're literally seeing screenshots right now
391
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:24,320
of the driver.
392
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,560
Now there's a record and a communications channel,
393
00:12:27,680 --> 00:12:29,940
you know, showing, I'm like, yes, this is
394
00:12:29,940 --> 00:12:32,120
what I've been wanting to see forever.
395
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,540
Now I'm finally getting excited again, you know.
396
00:12:36,220 --> 00:12:38,180
It's even looking at the box label and
397
00:12:38,180 --> 00:12:38,400
stuff.
398
00:12:38,560 --> 00:12:38,820
That's all.
399
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:39,280
Yeah.
400
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,120
It's very exciting right now.
401
00:12:41,580 --> 00:12:45,180
So anything, so IBC, it's definitely the NAB
402
00:12:45,180 --> 00:12:45,880
for Europe.
403
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:47,960
If you're in Europe and you have a
404
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:49,300
chance to go, it's worth going.
405
00:12:49,300 --> 00:12:49,680
Yeah.
406
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:50,940
I was going to say there were a
407
00:12:50,940 --> 00:12:54,420
lot of USB wireless mics and little wireless
408
00:12:54,420 --> 00:12:56,540
systems kind of like what you described and
409
00:12:56,540 --> 00:13:01,360
very tiny, but yeah, I didn't see anything
410
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,560
beating myself up because I did go running
411
00:13:04,560 --> 00:13:05,720
around looking for stuff.
412
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:07,040
It's so hard, man.
413
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,300
Because, you know, there's a lot that's not
414
00:13:09,300 --> 00:13:10,180
relevant to you.
415
00:13:10,380 --> 00:13:12,440
So you kind of glaze over it and
416
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,260
then you cherry pick and you get lucky
417
00:13:14,260 --> 00:13:15,840
and you find one cool thing.
418
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,980
And then, and then it, that gets lost
419
00:13:17,980 --> 00:13:19,700
in a wash of the other a hundred
420
00:13:19,700 --> 00:13:20,720
things that you saw.
421
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,140
You know, so unless you're like me and
422
00:13:23,140 --> 00:13:26,820
you document video everything and make content, you
423
00:13:26,820 --> 00:13:29,320
forget, you know, that's half the reason I
424
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,920
make content is so I can remember the
425
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:32,760
stuff that I saw.
426
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,640
I'll tell you what I saw that's cool.
427
00:13:35,660 --> 00:13:37,600
Pro Tools, Robbo, you're going to love this.
428
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,740
Pro Tools now has a text or audio
429
00:13:41,740 --> 00:13:42,660
to text feature.
430
00:13:43,220 --> 00:13:45,760
So you're looking at the timeline and you
431
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,660
see the words below the waveform.
432
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:49,740
And if you click on the word, it
433
00:13:49,740 --> 00:13:51,860
highlights the whole portion of the waveform that
434
00:13:51,860 --> 00:13:52,500
is that word.
435
00:13:52,500 --> 00:13:53,300
Like the script.
436
00:13:53,500 --> 00:13:56,040
You can search the bin and you can
437
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:57,920
search the bin for words.
438
00:13:58,160 --> 00:13:58,780
About time.
439
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:00,340
Oh my God.
440
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:01,320
It's really good.
441
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:02,280
Oh yes.
442
00:14:02,740 --> 00:14:03,300
That's good.
443
00:14:03,300 --> 00:14:04,000
I will be using that.
444
00:14:04,140 --> 00:14:05,020
They said it won't be out.
445
00:14:05,180 --> 00:14:05,860
I mean, it's like this.
446
00:14:05,940 --> 00:14:06,820
It's not the next version.
447
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:08,180
It's not the next, but the guy was
448
00:14:08,180 --> 00:14:10,760
showing me like the, the alpha thing.
449
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:11,300
Yeah.
450
00:14:11,300 --> 00:14:12,160
Oh wow.
451
00:14:12,300 --> 00:14:14,440
Can I use that now, please?
452
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,500
Did you guys also see that you can
453
00:14:17,500 --> 00:14:18,620
look at Spectral View?
454
00:14:19,380 --> 00:14:20,720
Did you know, did you already know that
455
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,180
you could look at Spectral View in Pro
456
00:14:22,180 --> 00:14:24,300
Tools so you can see the Isotope Spectral
457
00:14:24,300 --> 00:14:25,320
View embedded in there?
458
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:29,520
That's all a system called ARA, which Pro
459
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,400
Tools is, again, late to the game on.
460
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,040
That's been in every DAW for three years
461
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:39,240
because that's a thing that Melodyne, I believe
462
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,720
Melodyne and a few other plugin manufacturers created.
463
00:14:43,100 --> 00:14:45,520
And everyone's like, when is fricking Pro Tools
464
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:45,780
going to support this?
465
00:14:45,780 --> 00:14:48,660
Well, given Melodyne's in Pro Tools with the,
466
00:14:48,660 --> 00:14:51,260
you know, audio to MIDI functions and all
467
00:14:51,260 --> 00:14:52,800
that sort of stuff that they're running, you'd
468
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:53,940
think they'd be a bit more on the
469
00:14:53,940 --> 00:14:54,520
ball, wouldn't you?
470
00:14:55,460 --> 00:14:55,760
Yeah.
471
00:14:56,020 --> 00:14:58,380
You can load Wave Lab into that.
472
00:14:58,880 --> 00:14:59,600
Oh, okay.
473
00:14:59,740 --> 00:14:59,940
Andrew.
474
00:15:00,540 --> 00:15:02,420
You know, I'm not, I'm obviously not a
475
00:15:02,420 --> 00:15:05,320
Pro Tools guy, but they seem to play
476
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,080
the Apple card, which is, we're not going
477
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:07,760
to be first.
478
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:09,540
We're going to wait.
479
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:10,740
We're going to develop a lot.
480
00:15:10,820 --> 00:15:11,960
We're going to spend a lot of time
481
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,020
in development and testing.
482
00:15:13,780 --> 00:15:15,300
We're going to make sure when it comes
483
00:15:15,300 --> 00:15:17,520
out, it's rock solid because they have to.
484
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,760
They cannot afford to release something half-baked
485
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,180
like some third-party Android phone.
486
00:15:23,180 --> 00:15:25,320
You know where they've missed the mark in
487
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:26,120
that is the audio.
488
00:15:26,180 --> 00:15:27,000
We were just talking about that.
489
00:15:27,020 --> 00:15:30,020
The audio to MIDI thing I find sometimes
490
00:15:30,020 --> 00:15:33,560
works really well, but sometimes works really poorly
491
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:34,020
as well.
492
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:34,820
It just depends.
493
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:35,920
It's really hit and miss.
494
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,800
And that's, you know, whether you're using, you're
495
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:40,380
picked with rhythmic or, you know, any of
496
00:15:40,380 --> 00:15:42,320
the other sort of presets that they give
497
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:43,840
you to pick when you're dropping audio down
498
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,140
from an audio track to a MIDI track,
499
00:15:46,220 --> 00:15:47,820
I find it really sort of clumsy.
500
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,280
Talking of recording a multi-track, I assume
501
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,200
we can talk about this because you had
502
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,920
already been to your meeting and demonstration, Robert,
503
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:58,900
but you're off to my old neck of
504
00:15:58,900 --> 00:16:00,360
the woods tomorrow.
505
00:16:01,620 --> 00:16:03,480
You're going to Warner Brothers?
506
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:04,840
Going to Watford.
507
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:06,120
Yes.
508
00:16:06,980 --> 00:16:09,700
We're going to wherever Warner Brothers is, and
509
00:16:09,700 --> 00:16:12,340
we're showing a whole bunch of film mixers,
510
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:19,080
Source Elements' new feature, which, well, Dolby still
511
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,260
won't let us officially announce it because we're
512
00:16:21,260 --> 00:16:24,280
still waiting on official certification, but that is
513
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,540
basically going to happen for sure.
514
00:16:27,060 --> 00:16:27,860
So I'll say it.
515
00:16:27,860 --> 00:16:31,840
We partnered and worked with Dolby, and they
516
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:36,000
tweaked the Dolby Atmos renderer, and now it
517
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,740
works hand-in-hand with Source Connect so
518
00:16:38,740 --> 00:16:43,220
that you can imagine a, because, you know,
519
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,280
Dolby Atmos in a mixed theater is not
520
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,220
714, it's not 916.
521
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,480
We're talking about 20 speakers, like that's the
522
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,020
theatrical rendering of Dolby Atmos.
523
00:16:53,850 --> 00:16:57,060
So for us, this is like a real
524
00:16:57,060 --> 00:17:01,640
marquee product, essentially imagine a film is being
525
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:05,619
mixed in LA, and the director and the
526
00:17:05,619 --> 00:17:07,900
writer and producers, they're in London.
527
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,440
So two big mix stages hook up, hook
528
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:16,060
up on Source Connect 4, stream the bed
529
00:17:16,060 --> 00:17:20,640
and all the objects, which means with Atmos,
530
00:17:20,740 --> 00:17:23,900
129 channels of audio, and then all the
531
00:17:23,900 --> 00:17:24,760
panning metadata.
532
00:17:26,079 --> 00:17:28,560
And you have basically two mix theaters running
533
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,380
in parallel for review and approval of a
534
00:17:32,380 --> 00:17:33,120
theatrical mix.
535
00:17:33,140 --> 00:17:35,920
So it's going to allow a collaborative thing,
536
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,420
cross continents or whatever, that was just not
537
00:17:39,420 --> 00:17:40,320
possible before.
538
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,240
Before you would have had to do it
539
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:46,960
all, wait, render, mix, or whatever, send, let
540
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:50,300
the other guys listen and approve, over and
541
00:17:50,300 --> 00:17:51,760
over and over and over, rinse and repeat.
542
00:17:52,020 --> 00:17:52,680
Pin the tail on the donkey.
543
00:17:53,300 --> 00:17:53,920
Like, nope.
544
00:17:54,460 --> 00:17:55,840
Yeah, pin the tail on the donkey, no
545
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:57,040
I don't like that, no I don't like
546
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:57,920
that, no I don't, yeah.
547
00:17:58,100 --> 00:17:58,200
Right.
548
00:17:58,460 --> 00:17:58,700
Yeah.
549
00:17:59,140 --> 00:17:59,980
Wow, that's fun.
550
00:17:59,980 --> 00:18:02,360
So now it's like, you know, just, whatever,
551
00:18:02,700 --> 00:18:07,880
700 milliseconds away, and talk back right to
552
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:08,580
the, you know.
553
00:18:08,580 --> 00:18:13,500
I remember, Robert, when we did that session,
554
00:18:14,360 --> 00:18:16,060
and you were working, well actually it wasn't
555
00:18:16,060 --> 00:18:17,620
our session, it was the session with the
556
00:18:17,620 --> 00:18:22,060
orchestra in Austria, when you were working 5
557
00:18:22,060 --> 00:18:25,060
.1 in your studio in Chicago, down the
558
00:18:25,060 --> 00:18:26,720
line, and that was like a big deal.
559
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:28,880
That was a big deal, and that was
560
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:29,920
only five years ago.
561
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:30,620
Yeah.
562
00:18:31,060 --> 00:18:33,100
And you know, it's crazy, when Rebecca and
563
00:18:33,100 --> 00:18:34,780
I were testing this, I mean, you guys
564
00:18:34,780 --> 00:18:36,740
know about my shit internet at home, right?
565
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:37,380
Yep.
566
00:18:37,380 --> 00:18:37,480
Yes we do.
567
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,460
I've got a normal cable connection, and my
568
00:18:40,460 --> 00:18:44,940
normal cable connection is slung over low frequency
569
00:18:44,940 --> 00:18:49,880
900 megahertz wireless to my house, which then
570
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,380
goes to my computer over wifi through at
571
00:18:52,380 --> 00:18:55,420
least one good wall, and then Rebecca was
572
00:18:55,420 --> 00:18:59,020
in Europe on 4G, and I shit you
573
00:18:59,020 --> 00:19:01,580
not, we did 88 channels without a problem.
574
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:03,060
Bloody hell.
575
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:03,880
Yeah.
576
00:19:04,660 --> 00:19:06,980
You know, and that's all like 30 mega
577
00:19:06,980 --> 00:19:10,700
upload, download, you know, the 4G download was
578
00:19:10,700 --> 00:19:15,060
more than 30, but yeah, we were both
579
00:19:15,060 --> 00:19:16,900
expecting it, like, let's just see what happens,
580
00:19:16,980 --> 00:19:18,280
it might drop out a bunch, but we
581
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,440
need to test this, and it just worked.
582
00:19:20,700 --> 00:19:21,920
What's that Bruce Springsteen song?
583
00:19:22,120 --> 00:19:23,660
Is that 88 channels and nothing on?
584
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:26,460
No, I was thinking it was 52 channels,
585
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:26,740
wasn't it?
586
00:19:26,820 --> 00:19:27,860
Right, it's just, yeah.
587
00:19:28,100 --> 00:19:28,320
Yeah.
588
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:29,040
There you go.
589
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:30,460
Maybe Bruce could come up with a new
590
00:19:30,460 --> 00:19:30,600
song.
591
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:31,360
I don't know if you could get Bruce
592
00:19:31,360 --> 00:19:35,140
to do a jingle for you, you know,
593
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,360
88 channels and plenty on, or something like
594
00:19:38,360 --> 00:19:38,760
that.
595
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:40,440
Yeah, 88 channels and everyone working.
596
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:40,740
Yeah, there you go.
597
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:42,160
Everyone connected.
598
00:19:44,100 --> 00:19:44,700
Come on, Bruce.
599
00:19:45,860 --> 00:19:46,520
I know you're listening.
600
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:46,900
Not gonna say sorry.
601
00:19:46,900 --> 00:19:47,700
Come on, Bruce.
602
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:47,940
Yeah.
603
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,780
I was just gonna say, to conclude this
604
00:19:50,780 --> 00:19:52,800
episode, don't forget, talking about multi-tracks, we
605
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,520
have the stems, which will be in the
606
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:55,380
show notes, is that right?
607
00:19:55,460 --> 00:19:56,740
That will be in the show notes, and
608
00:19:56,740 --> 00:20:00,580
before we conclude the episode, and since we're
609
00:20:00,580 --> 00:20:02,300
on the subject of Austrian Audio, I would
610
00:20:02,300 --> 00:20:04,380
like to give another shout out to Austrian
611
00:20:04,380 --> 00:20:06,780
Audio for another reason, for their generosity.
612
00:20:07,020 --> 00:20:11,420
I've been mentoring my neighbor's son, who only
613
00:20:11,420 --> 00:20:13,280
left school last year and is an aspiring
614
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:17,500
audio engineer, and on a whim, I wrote
615
00:20:17,500 --> 00:20:20,280
a, because he's been borrowing my microphones and
616
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,620
experimenting with them, and not that I mind
617
00:20:22,620 --> 00:20:24,040
that, but on a whim, I wrote an
618
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,820
email to Bernd at Austrian Audio, and mentioned
619
00:20:27,820 --> 00:20:30,480
what I'd been helping Tyler do, and sort
620
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:31,720
of said, is there anything you can do
621
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,180
to help, and in the mail, turns up
622
00:20:34,180 --> 00:20:37,500
a My Creator set, so the satellite as
623
00:20:37,500 --> 00:20:41,860
well as the main mic, so Tyler's been
624
00:20:41,860 --> 00:20:44,060
down there recording his guitar and his vocals,
625
00:20:44,420 --> 00:20:48,260
and mucking around recording his dad, who's also
626
00:20:48,260 --> 00:20:51,380
a violinist, and doing some really cool stuff,
627
00:20:51,580 --> 00:20:53,880
so a big shout out to the guys
628
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,240
at Austrian Audio for supporting the next generation,
629
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,760
as well as us old guys with no
630
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,060
hair, or grey hair, or falling out, or
631
00:21:02,060 --> 00:21:02,340
whatever.
632
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:04,000
Well, I don't think, there's plenty of hair
633
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:05,800
on Robert, so if we get short, we
634
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:06,240
can borrow some from him.
635
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:07,400
That's right, very Sean Connery.
636
00:21:07,700 --> 00:21:08,400
Yeah, exactly.
637
00:21:09,120 --> 00:21:11,080
I was thinking more shaggy than Sean.
638
00:21:13,100 --> 00:21:16,300
Yeah, but seriously, thanks guys, it's well appreciated,
639
00:21:16,500 --> 00:21:17,700
and Tyler's having a great time.
640
00:21:18,700 --> 00:21:20,080
Well, that was fun, is it over?
