There are nice things about being in a club.
I’m not talking about the leather-chair, cigar smoking clubs out there (I’ve been members at those kind of clubs…they are not that big a deal).
I’m mean like clubs where members share a common interest and can talk about things you each know about and, as a member, you can learn from people who share your interests…like audio production and voiceover. Turns out there’s a kind of club for that.
Technology brought a lot of change to the industry, some of it bad (pay to play voiceover web sites) and some of it good.
One of the good things was Source-Connect, which uses codecs and the internet to offer recording studios, media producers, voiceover talents like me and other audio professionals high-quality options to record and monitor recording sessions remotely.
Source-Connect is (has been) replacing ISDN, which was the industry standard for remote recording.
