My old pal Jeff Schmidt is at it again with a really creative way to launch a new product. I’ve used his stuff and promoted it, because I love it, for a really long time. If you happen to be in the radio world and also a voice actor then you […]
September 8th and 9th of this year (2014) I will travel to Europe for the first time. I am excited for many reasons: I am degreed in History so I love opportunities to see, smell, hear and touch historic places. I am also taking part in a very special international event geared […]
his is the 4th year I’m involving myself with this charity bike ride- 525 miles from San Francisco back home to LA. It’s a fantastic adventure, and it raises a lot of money for a great 501(c)3 organization, the Arthritis Foundation.
I think I’ve mentioned at least once that I am making the trek to Amsterdam to be a part of the amazing roster at The Imaging Days 2014. I have some updated info and while I know it’s a big expense for the Yanks who read this I hope to see […]
My old pal out of Brazil, Gabriel Passajou, posted some awesome sounds he has made in honor of the World Cup. I don’t know about you but something weird happened to me. I didn’t just join the USA Soccer team bandwagon….I think I accidentally became a real soccer fan. I […]
OK. Out of the gate, be aware this is NOT the typical episode. I am doing this in conjunction with my Country Imaging service at TM Studios, 360 Country. I do a quarterly conference call for affiliates where we discuss random topics related to branding and station positioning. This particular episode […]
I enjoy supporting great people and great products. With this you get at LEAST one of those two things…..Buh dum dum. Ahem. I have stripped the contents of an email I got that says it “isn’t for sale to the public yet” but I get to pass on the deal to […]
Shameless promotion of some recent work. The Edge Shave Gel vids are pretty fun and I am told can be seen on Hulu among other places.
Super quick post to pass on some great free sounds. The “Bedroom Bloggers” at 99Sounds.org have posted what appears to be the first “release” for the absurd price of NOTHING. I grabbed them cuz I grab any and every batch of freeness and it is quality stuff! http://99sounds.org/ They have […]
I focus this blog on people and products that in some way positively affect Radio Imaging. I include great music based products and instruments (Komplete 9, ReFx, Stylus RMX, Break Tweaker, Assault) because as producers we should always try to widen our horizons – Bring maximum value to a project […]
For this episode I FINALLY get to interview an old colleague and friend, Jeff Laurence. Jeff is the voice of almost EVERYTHING! Radio stations, TV Stations, Commercial, Industrial, infomercials, universities and the list rolls one. Check out the show notes page for full length demos and some cool YouTube Vids. I kept […]

If there is one thing that typically disappoints me about most major radio related conferences/seminars it’s that there is never enough focus placed on the Imaging component of radio. Call it Imaging, Station Sound or just Branding it is one of the three most important parts of EVERY radio station […]
I have been working to get this episode put together for months. The team at Capital was so generous with their time and knowledge and a special thanks to Chris Nicoll, Head of Production, for lining everyone up. Yes, this episode features about 5 of 8 producers who create for […]
Part 2 continues abruptly with me going on a sports tangent. Leave it to me to talk American Football with 5 British people. Then we get into a ton of great topics including the ever popular “Sound Gear” stuff and all the tools etc that go into branding one of […]
The team provided some great audio demos which you can hear in full below. They also shot me some sound cloud links! Enjoy!

“In March, just a few weeks after their second son was born, Steve was diagnosed with Leukemia.” That taken from the site linked below and yes it certainly was startling news about Steve Pigott when I first heard it. I do not know Steve very well but I do know […]
While I have a love hate relationship with Facebook I have found great value in some of the Professional Groups. Here is a new one I wanted to pass along. It is geared at Adobe Sudition users. As Gavan Bruderer, creator, says below there are seemingly endless ways to learn […]
I have a sickness. I love new audio toys. I own a many bundles and many more single plug-ins. I own a CRAP-TON of SFX, Loops, Virtual Instruments and hardware devices. I own some I’ve only used 2 or 3 times. I probably own something I’ve never actually used. But […]
I heard my friend Brian Lee on some pretty epic Station Sound out of Sydney so I got the demo – Enjoy! Play Demo 2 Day FM has brought him in as the new voice of the Morning show, Jules, Merrick & Sophie With Mel B. I am constantly amazed […]
George is the Director of Technology at Edge Studio and of course VOStudioTech.com. He is an expert and leader in the field of home studio tech.
We continue with George Whittam and, based on the debate that rages across the web, I started with and got very in depth on the ISDN v SOURCE CONNECT v OTHERS debate. I am not an expert in any way when it comes to these technologies but George is and […]
Justin Case has a snappy name and a great set of chops when it comes to audio imaging production. And now he also has a great title: Director of Programming & Imaging at Benztown Branding. I have had the BOSS’ from Benz on in the past but Justin brings a […]
