Speaker 2: Find out more about us check the Pro Audio Suite
Speaker 2: dot com and welcome to another pro audio suite thanks
Speaker 2: to Austrian Audio Making Passion heard you can see it
Speaker 2: now because rom.
Speaker 3: Video exactly scary. Yeah, yeah, here we are actually it's all.
Speaker 3: Oh you got the C eight C eight eighteen eighty eight.
Speaker 2: We are equipped. Oh we're covering all bases here. Lovely
Speaker 2: talking about audio stuff though, George, you have a little
Speaker 2: present that arrived in the mile.
Speaker 1: I've got show until yeah, that's why they're doing video.
Speaker 1: Do show and then tell well, my friends at full
Speaker 1: Compass is a great catalog here in the US. Has
Speaker 1: actually been around a long time, like I'm not sure
Speaker 1: longer than Sweetwater, but I've dealt with Full Compas since
Speaker 1: the nineties, so they've been around for a while. They
Speaker 1: when I found out that the SSL, the great makers
Speaker 1: of the SSL two that we've all probably used, owned
Speaker 1: or played with or at some point know about. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you've got two s got two.
Speaker 2: SSL two's which could be an SSL four yeah together
Speaker 2: super glue.
Speaker 1: So I don't know. I guess my best possible guest
Speaker 1: here is that they thought price point and they just
Speaker 1: needed a product that would dip down in the sub
Speaker 1: two hundred dollars US range to compete with the scarlets
Speaker 1: of the world, right, yeah, and so.
Speaker 4: They date with the scarlets of the world.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, the SSL the scarlet two I two is
Speaker 1: round as in the two hundred dollar ballpark. The solo
Speaker 1: is what one fifty one sixty US? Yeah, So no
Speaker 1: surprise what towever that the SSL one is also at
Speaker 1: about that same price point, around one sixty US. So
Speaker 1: here it is, I shall rip it out of the
Speaker 1: box un ceremoniously, because.
Speaker 2: Two inns is that correct?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 4: What one mike pre probably in the guitar inputt.
Speaker 1: Yeah, in most cases when they say it's a one
Speaker 1: input device, it's not.
Speaker 4: It's like the same thing as the solo. The solo's
Speaker 4: that way from Scarlet.
Speaker 1: Very minimalistic packaging, really just cardboard paper, which is what
Speaker 1: you want to see these days. And then it's got
Speaker 1: a USB C to USB C cable with no after
Speaker 1: so it's a you know it's USBC, so move on,
Speaker 1: which you move on? You, I mean, the only thing
Speaker 1: that's annoying is a lot of US have USB C
Speaker 1: hubs that we're using and they have a ports on them.
Speaker 1: But frankly it's probably not recommended to use any audio
Speaker 1: device in a hub. Not generally not a good idea.
Speaker 1: There there are exceptions, and we've come up with some
Speaker 1: workarounds to that problem, but generally it's not a good idea.
Speaker 1: It's also generally not a good idea to not use
Speaker 1: the factory cable, although I think now with USB C
Speaker 1: it's so much of a standard nowadays that it shouldn't
Speaker 1: be as difficult to use a different cable. In fact,
Speaker 1: we've used with our very own passport, I have used
Speaker 1: a four meter I think four meter optical USB cable
Speaker 1: that uses optical and it worked a treat, so it
Speaker 1: probably would work with this. So here it is. It
Speaker 1: looks really familiar to the SOS too. Once the first
Speaker 1: things you noticed that it doesn't have is it doesn't
Speaker 1: have the big four K buttons down, so it's only
Speaker 1: one mic pre and one four K mojo.
Speaker 4: That's well, that's like it's there. Oh, it is there. Okay,
Speaker 4: it's up there. It is up here now, okay.
Speaker 1: I kind of like that. I always thought it was
Speaker 1: annoying that the button that really most voice actors should
Speaker 1: never press was this giant, beautiful well. I would always
Speaker 1: always laughed because I was like, the biggest buttons and
Speaker 1: the giantest knob are irrelevant to most voice actors because
Speaker 1: they're never using any of them. They're just using headphones.
Speaker 1: But anyway, so it's it's just cleaned up a bit.
Speaker 1: They shrunk the chassis, they don't have those big buttons,
Speaker 1: single mic pre amp here, instrument input there as you
Speaker 1: would expect, right, such a common design nowadays. Instrument that
Speaker 1: the mic input is not a combo, so it is
Speaker 1: strict a mic input, not a combo. And then your
Speaker 1: instrument here so again just like the scarlet, and then
Speaker 1: your quarter inch outputs and a dual USB because they
Speaker 1: felt why not, what's at a second one just for powering?
Speaker 1: I guess they had enough users still on legacy devices
Speaker 1: that just wouldn't power it, and so we'll have a.
Speaker 4: That's a good idea. Yeah, I think does the Liewitt
Speaker 4: have that or the not? The audience doesn't not too many.
Speaker 1: It's pretty, it's pretty, it's not. It's not that common.
Speaker 1: It's becoming.
Speaker 4: Oh, oh, I know it has it. The focus right
Speaker 4: has that.
Speaker 1: Oh, the focus right does. So it's it's very clear
Speaker 1: that whatever the Focus Right had, they were going to
Speaker 1: make sure this one has it too, you know. But
Speaker 1: there's a lot of things that Focus Right does this
Speaker 1: doesn't do, and that's where the differences start to really
Speaker 1: come into play. So what I like about this is
Speaker 1: that it does have a physical gain knob pop. I
Speaker 1: know that's a that's going to be an issue.
Speaker 4: I don't like that anymore.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can't tell us why, Robert, I can't tell
Speaker 1: you why, but I don't like that any But it
Speaker 1: does any physical knob. So when I'm teaching somebody how
Speaker 1: to record and set their levels, I can just tell
Speaker 1: them start it at twelve o'clock, increase it a little
Speaker 1: bit as needed, and it's just really clear and obvious
Speaker 1: where the knob is set. You don't have to guess,
Speaker 1: so that you know a lot of products with digital knobs.
Speaker 1: The unfortunately they don't all have a dB gain indicator. Right, If,
Speaker 1: like the scarlets and others of that, ILK had a
Speaker 1: little LCD saying you're at minus twenty seven d B
Speaker 1: gain or whatever plus twenty seventy B gain, that would
Speaker 1: be cool, and a few do, but most of them don't.
Speaker 1: So I still find this to be just easier. It's
Speaker 1: certainly easier for teaching. It's easier for learning how to record,
Speaker 1: it's more straightforward.
Speaker 5: The nice thing about the digital knobs is that you
Speaker 5: can really make presets and you can get really perfect recallability.
Speaker 5: And also they don't go scratchy.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they just go away, don't completely when they break,
Speaker 5: they just they're just like no more control at all.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the digital knob is there until it ain't, and
Speaker 1: when it goes, it's just throwing the trash.
Speaker 2: And the other thing they could have they could have
Speaker 2: stepped it, which being easier to.
Speaker 4: Well, usually all the.
Speaker 5: Digital stuff is stepped and the analog stuff is usually
Speaker 5: not stepped. And the one nice thing about the with
Speaker 5: a digital knob, you always have to be careful about
Speaker 5: turning it in real time, because if it's stepped, it
Speaker 5: might zipper as you turn it up or down, depending
Speaker 5: on the size of the steps. But the analog knobs,
Speaker 5: they're continuous, including all the scratchy junk.
Speaker 1: That pots feel smooth. I'm assuming it's some kind of
Speaker 1: a sealed pot. I don't know.
Speaker 4: But are they pretty solid?
Speaker 1: No, there's there, it really is. There is no detectable wiggliness.
Speaker 4: That's nice.
Speaker 1: It's a good solid call's a that's a rarity these days.
Speaker 1: Where is it night? Is it China? Yeah?
Speaker 4: Probably?
Speaker 2: It says designed Oxford building.
Speaker 1: Engineered in the UK, assembled in Malaysia.
Speaker 2: Well, Malisa, okay.
Speaker 4: So so so so what else do you like about it?
Speaker 1: Does the usual? The four K buttons there if you
Speaker 1: really must, And I think some men's voices benefit from
Speaker 1: the four K, like, for example mine, I have a
Speaker 1: kind of a Every time I hear it, it sounds
Speaker 1: on the dark side. It's a little bit overly warm
Speaker 1: and dark. So the four K could be nice. Most
Speaker 1: people probably don't want to use it, but it does
Speaker 1: have the high pass filter. I like that. I like
Speaker 1: that it has a high pass filter. A lot of
Speaker 1: folks are on teel on one O threes and they're wet,
Speaker 1: so they're picking up.
Speaker 4: God, do you know where that high pass filter is
Speaker 4: hinging on?
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Where does it? See? Yeah, you
Speaker 1: know there is no there is no Oh I lied.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say there's no manual. The manual is
Speaker 1: almost always nowadays a QR code.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but there is.
Speaker 1: There is a piece of paper and all the people,
Speaker 1: all the paper is is to satisfy legal requirements. Right,
Speaker 1: this is no expection exception. Okay, see where the high
Speaker 1: boss field is.
Speaker 4: And every so lawyers are keeping trees in business.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, every every single possible language is printed inside
Speaker 1: the book. So I will have to actually look that
Speaker 1: one up for you. I would almost in Swahili with it.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure it's eighty hertz with a twelve d
Speaker 1: V proactive slope roll es. Surely that wouldn't be stupid
Speaker 1: enough to put it ridiculously high. No, that's a pretty
Speaker 1: commonly placed pre set setting. So I liked. I do
Speaker 1: like that it has. I think a lot of home
Speaker 1: studio users benefit from preemptively rolling off the low end
Speaker 1: with their tailing one of threes. The buttons have little
Speaker 1: lights underneath. So these are actually digital buttons. They're not
Speaker 1: latching soft they're not latching hardware. They're digital software buttons.
Speaker 1: So they're actually going to light ignite those little indicators.
Speaker 1: Telling you that was a big complaint of the first
Speaker 1: gen is the buttons had no lights or indicators and
Speaker 1: they were really hard to tell if they were up
Speaker 1: or down. You really had to right, would you agree
Speaker 1: with that, Andrew?
Speaker 5: Which is a total console maker thing if you think
Speaker 5: about the way the SSL board is itself, not every
Speaker 5: single button had a light.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I guess you're right. So because I don't
Speaker 1: have a I don't have any spare USBC ports on
Speaker 1: my system. Everything's everything is being used. But I do
Speaker 1: have an iPhone, so I just plugged it into the
Speaker 1: iPhone and it lit. It lit right up. It's a
Speaker 1: little power indicator and so now we can get uh
Speaker 1: oh yeah, ghantum slashes for a moment to tell you
Speaker 1: it's aged. There's your four K and there is your
Speaker 1: low cut. So that's nice. I like that. Now let's
Speaker 1: see if they remember their state when you unplug it.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm, because you know, people forget to turn on
Speaker 1: their their phantom power all the time. That's a problem.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be plug it, plug it back in again,
Speaker 1: don't dun't dum.
Speaker 6: Oh.
Speaker 1: Yes, the memory, Yeah, so it's got to go. It's
Speaker 1: got like a flash memory. It knows that state, it's
Speaker 1: current state. So some pretty fancy firmware in that thing.
Speaker 1: And then and then it has a mixed button. And
Speaker 1: my understanding, again not having read the user manually yet sorry,
Speaker 1: is that the mix button is simply just a direct monitor,
Speaker 1: just like the SSL. This just like the Scarlet. So
Speaker 1: you want to hear yourself press mix.
Speaker 4: You don't want no volume control.
Speaker 1: That is the one lack feature lack that is glaringly
Speaker 1: missing from this that.
Speaker 4: The Scarlet's got the same problem.
Speaker 1: Scarlet has the same problems direct or not. So I figured, yeah,
Speaker 1: I figured they looked at Scarlet, are like, this is
Speaker 1: the most freaking popular beginner audio interface on the planet.
Speaker 1: What are they selling? What are Let's just put it
Speaker 1: all on ours and if it doesn't have the Blend
Speaker 1: control then we don't need it and we can save it.
Speaker 1: We can save two dollars and take the Blend mob out.
Speaker 1: That's a bummer. I really like the Blend NB. If
Speaker 1: you never do directed sessions. Passports a blend. The passport
Speaker 1: has a blend. Yeah, if you're always doing directed sessions,
Speaker 1: it's really nice to have. If you're never doing directed sessions,
Speaker 1: you don't need it. If you don't like wearing headphones,
Speaker 1: you don't need it. It's really for people that wear
Speaker 1: headphones that blend headphone model Blend NOB is nice. And
Speaker 1: then of course just the volume NOB for the headphones there.
Speaker 2: Cool, looks good, It's funny. I'm talking about interfaces though,
Speaker 2: and we talked about this before week got on. And
Speaker 2: I'm curious to find someone in another country apart from America,
Speaker 2: who has a passport for you and see if they
Speaker 2: can actually plug their iPhone into the comms and use
Speaker 2: it as a phone patch and get a really good signal.
Speaker 2: Here I'm using my passport as a phone patch and
Speaker 2: it works perfectly, and for some peculiar reason, it doesn't
Speaker 2: seem to work in America, and it didn't work here
Speaker 2: last year. So something in the last twelve months has
Speaker 2: changed to our the way our telcos work. I have
Speaker 2: no idea. Yeah, yeah, but if there's someone like in
Speaker 2: the UK or somewhere or Europe or whatever, if you've
Speaker 2: got a passport for you, give it a go and
Speaker 2: let us know how it goes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, going to try mine today. Yeah, I plugged in
Speaker 1: a tiny little lab mic that was laying on my
Speaker 1: desk into the second sport using a road lavali er
Speaker 1: mic adapter. So it's just you can plug a heath
Speaker 1: inch lab right into this, yeah, road adapter. It's called
Speaker 1: the vxl R plus. I think I think these are
Speaker 1: like ten dollars.
Speaker 4: Is that lab trs like it's balanced?
Speaker 1: Well, this lab jack is, but I'm pretty sure it
Speaker 1: works with a non balanced on.
Speaker 4: It just drops inside grounds it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So now I've got a signal coming in and
Speaker 1: now i can just see. It's a very simple, easy
Speaker 1: to read VW. What does it do when we start
Speaker 1: getting in the clipping zone? Is it light up red? Check, check, check,
Speaker 1: goes to yellow, goes to yellow, goes to red or
Speaker 1: amber or whatever. So simple, simple view meter, nothing fancy
Speaker 1: does the job.
Speaker 5: One thing that's funny and it's subtle, but it has
Speaker 5: a slant on the face of it. I was really
Speaker 5: surprised with this EVO. It's just a block. It's a block, Yeah,
Speaker 5: and it doesn't sit on the It doesn't like. It's
Speaker 5: kind of funny how a little tiny angle can make
Speaker 5: a big difference ergonomically.
Speaker 1: Well, the EVO is basically it got a digital encoder,
Speaker 1: a couple of buttons, and a couple it's chunky. It
Speaker 1: could be half as thick. Yeah, it's you know, or
Speaker 1: but it's slow slanned. It's in the back because it's
Speaker 1: not nearly as deep, like it's very it's very skinny.
Speaker 1: So it is.
Speaker 5: It's I don't think that they've wasted any space in it, yes,
Speaker 5: and I don't mind the interface at all, like.
Speaker 4: You know, what button? What prep do you want to
Speaker 4: It can easily run with one it's easy.
Speaker 1: But it is just like an Apollo where it's one knob,
Speaker 1: many jobs and you have to press the right button
Speaker 1: before you turn the knob, and the buttons are all
Speaker 1: labeled in graphics that hieroglyphics. Yeah, yeah, it's internationally. They
Speaker 1: wanted to translate, so it has nothing written printed in English.
Speaker 1: This product being created in Britain, of course, has a
Speaker 1: lot of English language written on it. Yes, home as
Speaker 1: you would imagine, but uh yeah, that is something that
Speaker 1: so I think we're reading we've been there for a while,
Speaker 1: but we're really just dividing line and devices, whether they're
Speaker 1: kind of traditional old school analog with just all physical knobs,
Speaker 1: pretty much an ANAMG device.
Speaker 4: On all the way back to an M box exactly.
Speaker 1: This is really just another M box from nineteen ninety
Speaker 1: nine or whenever that came out, or ninety seven. That's
Speaker 1: really all this is. It's just another new iteration of
Speaker 1: an old school USB audio interface, full stop. It sounds good.
Speaker 1: The preets are nice, they're clean as a really good
Speaker 1: self noise rating. Henry Krause is that the guy's name
Speaker 1: on YouTube?
Speaker 2: Julian Julian.
Speaker 1: Thank you. Julian Krause reviewed it. It's up there with
Speaker 1: some of the best in terms of most of its specs,
Speaker 1: so we know the quality is good. What else can
Speaker 1: I say? It's just a simple device for people that
Speaker 1: are simple minded, not dumb. Just don't think and get
Speaker 1: into the one knob multiple jobs thing. If that thing
Speaker 1: short circuits your brain like the EVO does. Hold the
Speaker 1: EVA up for a second. Actually, Romo, Robert, So if
Speaker 1: you look at the EVO, it's a very elegant design
Speaker 1: with one knob in this I mean, we.
Speaker 4: Can we can go through it.
Speaker 5: So like the EVO right here, If you want to
Speaker 5: control the first mic preamp, you push this button. Then
Speaker 5: you have the gain, second mic and the phantom for
Speaker 5: the first part amp. And then if you want to
Speaker 5: control the second preamp, press the button for the second
Speaker 5: PREMP and then you have your phantom and your gain.
Speaker 5: And if you want your headphone volume, you press the
Speaker 5: headphone button and then you have your gain. Or if
Speaker 5: you want to control your blend the SSL does not
Speaker 5: have this, then you press that button and you have
Speaker 5: your so you always have to say what do I
Speaker 5: want to do and then turn the knob for it.
Speaker 1: But and has auto gain.
Speaker 4: This does have auto gain to it, Yes it does.
Speaker 1: That. You cannot do auto gain with a mag with
Speaker 1: a log right, and that's another still to be I
Speaker 1: think still remaining to be seen thing is is whether
Speaker 1: voice actors should use autogain or not. I mean it basically,
Speaker 1: it's not AGC. It's not like the old classic video
Speaker 1: camera auto leveler. It just auditions your voice for twenty seconds,
Speaker 1: ten seconds maybe, and then at the end of that
Speaker 1: period it decides it's okay, this is as loud as
Speaker 1: they're going to get. I'm going to drop it. By
Speaker 1: twelve dB usually gives it. I think the ones I've
Speaker 1: tried to give you a twelve dB headroom and then
Speaker 1: off you go.
Speaker 4: And then leave it alone, and you leave it alone.
Speaker 1: If you push belonge beyond that game, you will still clip.
Speaker 1: Now Scarlet takes it to another level and adds what's
Speaker 1: called their safety. I think it's called there's another button safe.
Speaker 1: Maybe you've got one, I think, Robert, I think there's
Speaker 1: an says safe.
Speaker 4: And so this is this is a Scarlet, the fourth
Speaker 4: gen and the buttons we have one second, I can't
Speaker 4: see very well.
Speaker 1: We're all on the same page there, but I mean
Speaker 1: they couldn't black.
Speaker 5: It's as hard to so select forty eight instrument auto
Speaker 5: safe and.
Speaker 4: The sorry I'm that old too, Yeah, I'm sorry for
Speaker 4: your eyes. My eyes are.
Speaker 1: Perfect, turning the light on his phone to see the
Speaker 1: writing because I can see.
Speaker 4: But it's just like the light.
Speaker 1: This is better for folks with less than optimal eyesight.
Speaker 1: It is say that if that's your category, the scarlet
Speaker 1: is not a good choice. But yes, it does have
Speaker 1: a safe button, and the safe button is a clip
Speaker 1: protect thing. So even if you don't use or do
Speaker 1: use the auto level the safe mode is a clip protector,
Speaker 1: and what that does is that when you cross threshold
Speaker 1: of clipping, it drops the game and it stays there.
Speaker 1: It doesn't push up.
Speaker 5: You know who has who has really cool tych in
Speaker 5: this area was originally Aphex, who is now gobbled up
Speaker 5: by Road, But they had a mic limb circuit and
Speaker 5: and it would actually on the input that was going in,
Speaker 5: it would very quickly change the gain of the pre
Speaker 5: amp based it was. It was actually turning it down.
Speaker 5: It's a very interesting one to look at. It's kind
Speaker 5: of too bad that Road hasn't It's funny Road bought
Speaker 5: Aphex and when like, oh we'll take Big.
Speaker 4: Bottom and yeah whatever, and they just like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, kind of just stripped it for as we hear
Speaker 1: a lot in the business, stripped for parts. Yeah, striped like.
Speaker 5: The oral exciter in Big Bottom, and they like, that's
Speaker 5: not even their coolest stuff.
Speaker 1: So now I'm recording in twisted Wave with this little
Speaker 1: tiny lavalier Mike uh running into the ss L one.
Speaker 1: There's your level coming in, blah blah blah. And I
Speaker 1: don't even know if i'd need to bother playing it back.
Speaker 1: But the idea on sour what source elements recorder. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean sources recorder. It runs on Chrome or Safari.
Speaker 1: It's agnostics, so you can use it on a mobile device.
Speaker 1: Is that right?
Speaker 4: Right, you can.
Speaker 1: I haven't tried that yet.
Speaker 5: I'm pretty sure. We're pretty sure it's ready for the
Speaker 5: mobile devices'.
Speaker 4: It's pretty new.
Speaker 1: Try it doesn't work, he's Roberts email address.
Speaker 4: Yes, here's my home address.
Speaker 1: Number. Yeah, you don't go a human dress He'll fix it. No,
Speaker 1: you have a home address, Robert, And it's fake, right,
Speaker 1: And it took a facade. And then when they ring
Speaker 1: the board, when they they ring the doorbell, danmed dong
Speaker 1: trap door.
Speaker 4: Exactly, that's right.
Speaker 1: He went to get help at the guy's house and
Speaker 1: he disappeared forever. There's yes, yeah, exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Oh you arrive in the cellar and you see someone
Speaker 2: you haven't seen for years. I wonder where you've been.
Speaker 5: I always used to tell the clients that the talkback
Speaker 5: button was a trap door for a pit of alligators.
Speaker 5: In case there talent messed up, drop him into the well.
Speaker 1: So I'm trying recorder on the mobile. Popped it open,
Speaker 1: he says, continue, So I'm clicking that redirecting to log in.
Speaker 1: I'm accepting the legal I am, I am now, I'm
Speaker 1: logging in. I'm hoping that remembers my user password from
Speaker 1: my password manager. Looks like it did. Logging in and
Speaker 1: give it to me baby.
Speaker 2: Come on now, isn't that that song?
Speaker 1: Yes, give it me, Give it to me baby, and
Speaker 1: golly say, I'm pretty fly for.
Speaker 2: Okay anyone who's under thy sorry about that.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's right.
Speaker 2: We just dated the whole sh always spokes.
Speaker 1: There's a station here that would play that called Jack FM. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the Jack format was that over? Is that around the
Speaker 1: world now it's a format? Yeah? Jack Fullmatt is a thing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we doesn't have to. Yeah we did.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't have Jack.
Speaker 6: We don't have a Jack station in the stratey and
Speaker 6: I wish we did because it's really cool.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. Well, my friend, my client, Howard Cogan's been
Speaker 1: Jack forever playing what we Want from a dumpy little
Speaker 1: building in Culver City. It was funny. Is he actually
Speaker 1: lives in Culver City but not in a jump dumpy little.
Speaker 4: So the dumpy buildings his house? Probably not?
Speaker 1: Well no not. Now, we designed a studio, We designed
Speaker 1: a student of his garage out of concrete and steel.
Speaker 1: That was pretty mind boggling. Wow. But he's the first
Speaker 1: guy that I set up an apollo for when it
Speaker 1: came out, and that was another first working with Jack.
Speaker 1: I don't have a log in my It's funny.
Speaker 5: I was thinking of all the different audio companies. Most
Speaker 5: of the interfaces are rooted in English companies. It's like
Speaker 5: Audience Focus, right, SSL, even Cranbourne or whoever you know,
Speaker 5: like the US companies or what U A.
Speaker 1: Yeah U A U A.
Speaker 4: Avid kind of like.
Speaker 1: Is the big dog at this point, right in terms
Speaker 1: of a US based design and IP international intellectual property.
Speaker 5: And then then you have a couple in Germany R
Speaker 5: and Me and Yellow and Steinberg, right, and then it's
Speaker 5: like Japan with Yamaha. Really maybe a few like Zoom,
Speaker 5: but there's not a lot of companies like I guess
Speaker 5: Sure makes some interfaces that are sure.
Speaker 1: Yeah, MACKI sold out to road.
Speaker 5: Is personas US personas is US based, Yeah person Samson
Speaker 5: Samson as US. I was sinking it as a Chinese company,
Speaker 5: but another Jersey company.
Speaker 1: Thanks for stalling allow microphone access and I'm finally locked in.
Speaker 4: Did we buy you some time there?
Speaker 1: You can later it's allowing the MIC, and it shows
Speaker 1: input device and it gives me the option of iPhone microphone.
Speaker 1: So I have to presume that Chrome is just telling
Speaker 1: the software there's a mic available. Yeah.
Speaker 5: iOS apps are very hard sometimes to pick devices. You
Speaker 5: take what's connected, and it's possible that if twisted Wave
Speaker 5: is still grabbing that MIC, that it's precluded from using it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh, I would see. I would have thought would be
Speaker 1: the opposite, whereas twisted Wave initialized the device that.
Speaker 4: Would be and made it available. Maybe, but yeah, it's
Speaker 4: kind of hard to say.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so far not available, saying it seems to be.
Speaker 2: It's like a TV default. What you're doing Jewish, You know,
Speaker 2: when your TV wasn't working, you to go and bang
Speaker 2: on the top.
Speaker 1: I'm doing the scratch test, doing the scrash test, what's
Speaker 1: wrong with the TV? Bang?
Speaker 2: Bang, bang? There you go, that's fixed it.
Speaker 4: Do you do what that's called? No, called that's called
Speaker 4: impact maintenance?
Speaker 1: Okay, check check check here it's called the technical tap.
Speaker 2: Or reboot.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So it looks like the recorder on Chrome on
Speaker 1: an iPhone is defaulting to the internal MIC on the phone.
Speaker 1: But this is I'm running an older OS too, so
Speaker 1: I think the most up to dated OS gives the
Speaker 1: user better control over audio devices. That's what I heard.
Speaker 4: And the recorder is so new, I'm not sure that
Speaker 4: we've officially made it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Mobile, Yeah, but it very well does format itself
Speaker 1: nicely on a mobile. Yeah.
Speaker 5: We've had some users that literally they want to recording
Speaker 5: to the recorder.
Speaker 1: What can you read that? It says SSL one right there.
Speaker 1: Once you're into the app, and then you can change devices,
Speaker 1: let's see two to two. Interesting, it's still definitely using
Speaker 1: the phone even though it says it's the SSL the
Speaker 1: top close.
Speaker 4: Send them to my house. I will put them in the.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it does really well with the horizontal it
Speaker 1: makes sense. Yeah. Yeah, it's responsive, that's the word I'm
Speaker 1: looking for. It's very mobile responsive. Yeah, and it doesn't
Speaker 1: stop recording when you flip your phone around either. I
Speaker 1: mean I've had older apps that want if you flip
Speaker 1: phone orientation while it's working, it still goes and it stops.
Speaker 1: This one just keeps right on rolling. So it's definitely
Speaker 1: using the latest design.
Speaker 2: I find that with my turntable if I try and flip,
Speaker 2: it sort of doesn't play anymore.
Speaker 1: Every time the needle just slides across the road.
Speaker 6: The old days with those early CD walkmans that jump
Speaker 6: in the Yeah, I had one in the car once
Speaker 6: and it was like jumping over the joint. But you know,
Speaker 6: my the turntable I've got, or one of them, the
Speaker 6: denin which I've had since about eighty three. I think
Speaker 6: it's it's got some kind of computer in the arm
Speaker 6: that you can actually pick the turntable up while it's
Speaker 6: playing and turn it not aggressively, and it rebalances the wow,
Speaker 6: rebalances the oh.
Speaker 1: You know why because they developed that for rich bastards
Speaker 1: with ships, and.
Speaker 2: Probably probably
Speaker 4: It's like detrowded player to play yacht rock.
