My email runneth over! For some reason a bunch of stuff appeared in my inbox Wednesday...tech Stuff that's just too good to miss. Maybe you got it too...but just in case, here's the short list: VOICEZAM Founder and CEO Bob Merkel never rests on his laurels. One of the most innovative...

A New “Take”
Don't expect iOS and Android developers to grow weary of the endless proliferation of newer, better, faster, cleverer apps. There's no downside for them, apps are money-makers, and they speak to the best of global innovation. I've tried to blog about every worthwhile audio app and program to come...
USB Mic Roundup
Electronic Musician magazine is a treasure-trove. Sure, it's written for musicians, audiophiles, producers and engineers, but its pages are full of the same kind of stuff we voice-actors are interested in. The Emusician.com digital website is here. It's filled with links, resources and articles....
Telos Sans ISDN
John Bisset of Telos Alliance was at the table next to mine at Faffcon 7's "meet the sponsors" event. I didn't have a lot of time to talk to him other than to mention that I owned an XStream codec...then we were both off to talk to people visiting our displays. He seemed like an affable,...
AudioTX Rebirth
When I first got into ISDN, I connected through AudioTX. Not that many people are familiar with it. AudioTX is a UK firm with a 14-yr track record in connectivity. The equipment is nothing like a Telos or Musicam codec. No box at all. You get a dongle, some software, and then you have to...
The “Other” Voiceover
Years ago, I was lamenting (complaining, really) that Apple chose the word "voiceover" for the voice command functions on the iOS devices. It just made searching for topics in our industry much less effective. But now that cat's out of the bag. Heck...people in our business can't even decide...
My Battle With “It”
It's a darn shame, doncha think? So tell me...what does the "it" refer to in the sentence above? It's crazy isn't it? (same question) "IT" has become the most overused, misunderstood, misused "crutch" word in the English language. Lately, I've been going back through emails, bio's, letters, news...
Why Loyalty Matters
Tuesday, Apple will be making some big announcements. There will be some new iPhone models, a new iOS, maybe a smartwatch to be revealed. Then Tim Cook will offer at least one or two surprises, although it's getting harder and harder to keep secrets in the land of geek. I've been with iPhone...
Steinberg + iPad = Cubasis
Just the other day someone posted in an online forum with the question: "What are the best apps to record and edit audio on an iOS system". I haven't done the research, but probably scores of apps will record your audio...but not many will let you edit, and even fewer will offer editing and...
A Correction in the Marketplace
Put your ear to the railroad track, and you can hear it coming. Bobbin Beam's great article of this week on "HELLO??? WHERE IS MY TELEPHONE CALL GOING" explains so well -- AGAIN-- what many of us have been chronicling for years: the Internet is disrupting the comfortable state-of-affairs for...
