Building the pod – episode 149

Wow!
2 episodes in 2 consecutive weeks!
This week, we catch up on a couple of listener e-mails:
Ken had another tip for getting the best out of the Adaptive Noise Reduction plugin,
Steve asked about headphones,
(I’d suggest checking out both GoodCans and Headphone Reviews),
and Jim chimed in with some extra uses for the Channel Mixer (like mid-side decode/encode).
If you’re new to the Mid-Side technique, read up on it at wikipedia.

Then it’s on to exploring some funky doppler effects.

One bag, sans cat

Filed under: Adobe Audition,Building the Pod,Software — Bruce Williams @ 9:54

Today, Adobe announced officially that the next version of Audition will run on both the Windows and Mac operating systems.
This is great news for the Mac community who have been screaming out for years for the ability to use Audition on their OS.
On top of this announcement comes news that late 2010, there will be a public beta.
If you’d like to be a part of that, sign up here.
There’s lots more I’d love to tell you, but the word from Adobe is, “if it’s on the Labs page, you can talk about it. If it’s not, then you can’t”.
So, guess you’ll just have to keep an ear right here!

Then Ron Tostevin asked about purchasing a second-hand Mackie Control Universal off EBay now that the prices of same have come down so much.
Also, the ‘Donate’ button is now back on audio2u.com, so if you feel like making a donation toward paying for the bandwidth, that would be greatly appreciated!
