...just send donations to the next-gen technology company that will inherit ISDN's faithful. Yesterday well-known production house ProComm Voice Talent delivered a message to its member talent that it was transitioning away from reliance on ISDN (by the end of March, next year). The full text of...
Yup, the very heart of the entertainment/communication industry on the East Coast - the #2 VO market in the USA - no more ISDN installs.If you already have ISDN, you're fine. Things will continue as normal (for now).This is for BRI service. Apparently Verizon is still offering PRI/T1 connections...
Not that they're mutually exclusive or anything, but both of these services have a part to play in the voice-over realm...and both are struggling to survive for different reasons.Twitter is a free social media platform under seemingly endless corporate mis-management. ISDN is an expensive...
It hurt. But I did it. Part of the reason was because I wasn't getting enough use out of it to justify the cost. But the rest of the reason has to do with my saving face. After all, I ballyhoo'd the death of ISDN on the pages of this blog for years. It was time to put up or shut up. Digital...
How long is it prudent to hang on to ISDN?...I mean...at a personal level?We all know the TelCos are pretty much fed-up with losing money on the infrastructure that goes into keeping this dinosaur alive...at least in the hinterlands...as in: anywhere else besides NYC and LA.

The cooler heads were right.....back then.Years ago, when I began blogging of the impending death of ISDN, there were plenty of people around to tell me the end of that technology was still far away.They were right, and I was right. It WAS the beginning of the end several years ago. But any...
Sometimes an idea comes along that just makes us all do a face-plant, and say: "Of course!...Perfect!"Kevin Leach -- the founding and creative force behind ipDTL -- and his development team, just launched what could be the convergence communication solution for voice-actors seeking...
My constant hammering away at the situation with outgoing ISDN and incoming IP remote recording solutions often shakes loose a few informational tidbits from unexpected corners of the industry. Yesterday's post of a video interview with SessionLinkPro's Tim Proegler prompted an email from fellow...
"What was that again?" I said to Jason Rooney. My ears perked up when Rooney - a friend and VO Pro - mentioned he had successfully completed a remote recording using an IP connection service I'd never heard of before. "SessionLinkPro" he said. "Worked like a charm!" Naturally, I was on the case. ...
