My guest is Dave Hamilton, Co-host of Mac Geek Gab, Gig Gab, and The Small Business Show. He is also the Co-founder of The Mac Observer and BackBeat Media.
We discussed tons of valuable info, including:
- Heil PR40 - since 2016
- Presonus Quantum 2626 - the thunderbolt line
- Audio Hijack - to record the fully mixed audio LIVE
- Logic Pro
- Sending everything to a buss sent to BlackHole (what Soundflower was, creates 2 audio devices)
- Squadcast input set to BlackHole
- ICON Platform M+ --- external control surface, 9 faders, ~$450, least expensive WITHOUT motorized faders,
- He tested the Presonus Faderport 8 which is ~$1,200
- Without motorized faders: Korg nanoKONTROL Studio Mobile MIDI Control Surface
- Processing in Logic Pro: EQ, noise gate, compressor, de-esser
- Mastering chain: Compression - quite heavy, de-esser, limiter
- Adding a touch of reverb to “put everyone in the same room.” Used to use an ART outboard reverb unit. In Logic he uses Chromaverb.
- Auphonic for leveling, processing, adding metadata, chapters (add manually or import a text file!), convert to MP3, send directly to FTP server.
- CashFly for media hosting
- Feed generated from PowerPress
Thanks for being a great guest, Dave!
