I have had a pair of Bose headphones for years. They have been in my bag and my go to headphones when I need to use my phone or computer. I have over the ear phones as well, but they are big and bulky, and these in-ear headphones can always be with me. Since I … Continue reading Bose SoundTrue Ultra in-ear headphones

Remote VO Sessions with ipDTL
We had a request from a client that wanted to be part of a VO session but didn't want to travel to the session. He lives in New York, and we are in Studio City, so that makes sense. How the heck do we send video and audio from a TV show, add two VO … Continue reading Remote VO Sessions with ipDTL
Compute Devices should not have “Pro” in their name
This is one of those little things that bugs me. It shouldn't, but it does, and it is something that I have burned way too many calories on. Computers and Devices should not have Pro in their name! I would normally look the other way on this. Figure it is marketing for a company, so … Continue reading Compute Devices should not have “Pro” in their name

Google I/O Keynote 2017
So I finally had a chance to watch the almost two hour keynote from Google. Here are some of my observations. For one thing, Google is getting a little more hip. Like Apple there presentations are getting better. More video. Good product demonstrations. A very smooth transition from speaker to speaker. Good on you Google. … Continue reading Google I/O Keynote 2017
Premiere 11.1 Update – Wasn’t ready!
I updated all my machines with Premiere 11.1 as Adobe recommended, but that move was a mistake. There are bugs. Bugs I can't even describe, but things that now aren't right. Send a file from Premiere to Media Encoder may or may not work. Premiere crashes often. This version seems a little buggy. I see … Continue reading Premiere 11.1 Update – Wasn’t ready!
