Some recent listener feedback

Hello Bruce.
Thank you for the pedagogical way of showing how to use the Adobe Audition 3 and making me so interested.
All the best

Actually, Adobe and Lynda are the ones that should be thanking you.
I purchased both Audition and a subscription to Lynda based solely on what I'm hearing on your excellent programs.
And I hate the word podcasts.
It lumps you in with all the a**holes that think they are content producers because they have a microphone and an internet connection (and you are obviously a professional dedicated to his craft, and know how to produce content).
They just don't know what they don't know!

I'm a long time listener to your Building the Pod and Sine Language shows, and would like to thank you for producing such informative and interesting podcasts.
I'm a media production student at the University of Lincoln in the UK and your Audition guides really helped me during the radio production aspect of my course.

I've only recently decided to get back into music production after a prolonged absence.
So, when it came to choosing a DAW, it came down to a choice between FL Studio and Audition.
Dollar wise, quite similar although FL Studio does offer more in the way of virtual instruments for this price range.
But I chose Audition for two clear reasons.
1. I really like the look and feel. The layout is just easy on the eye and made sense to me very quickly.
2. I knew I had a great teacher. I discovered Building the Pod through the Adobe web site and soon found Sine Language.
I have to thank you sincerely for your weekly tuition.
It has turned a somewhat severe learning curve into managable bite size pieces.
I simply can't overstate how thankful I am of your weekly podcasts.
Bye for now.

Sorry gang.
Just another one of those weeks where time got away from me, and I didn’t get anything recorded.

The state of play

Filed under: Building the Pod,Shutters Inc,Sine Language — Bruce Williams @ 19:56

Howdy folks.
Here we go again.
Another week and no podcasts.
This is getting monotonous.

Building The Pod:
As previously mentioned, until the next version ships, there isn’t a lot more I can say. Still happy to crank out the odd episode here and there if anyone has questions requiring answers regarding using Audition. At the moment, there are no unanswered questions. If I’ve overlooked your e-mail, drop me a reminder!

Shutters Inc:
ARN are offering me a full time gig, so I guess that’s bad news as far as the future of Shutters Inc is concerned. I’m not knocking it on the head just yet, as I haven’t had a chance to speak to Shelton lately, but one thing we know already is that without hours during a weekday, it’s almost impossible for Shelton and I to record. Believe me when I say I DON’T want to see SI fall by the wayside… I love it too much! Please hang in there, dear faithful.

Sine Language:
I know, I know… that pesky milestone is like a speedhump I can’t seem to get over! Know this though; the mix of the song (and the associated screen capture) IS DONE!
Still to be done?

  • The intro graphics… got a guy working on that on my behalf.
  • Intro voice over… that will take 2 mins ONCE I get the intro graphics.
  • Edit down the video footage into something presentable. That will be a big job… will probably take a couple of nights.
  • Upload a version to YouSendIt for the volunteers to ‘seed’ via torrent.

Will all that happen this week?
I’d like to say ‘yes’ (and believe me when I say I WILL be aiming for that), but seeing how the last month has zipped past in the blink of an eye… I’m not willing to make another promise I can’t keep.
