Hey Folks,
Welcome back to the emporium. Please excuse the lack of posts but I’ve been working on some amazing new posts that should blow you away once they’re done. Today is more of an editorial and will contain a few bits about the voice industry.
I’ll start things off with Bodalgo’s attempt to promote itself. I got this email yesterday from Armin Hierstetter the guy who developed and runs Bodalgo.com. If you guys aren’t familiar with them they are a voice casting website that is based in Germany. Armin is from Bavaria (as far as I can tell) which is what the B in BMW is derived from (Bavarian Motor Works… or something). Here is the email I got: Read More

Goodmorning folks, I decided to lend a helping hand to those members on the site who would like to add voiceover-casting.com badges to their websites or their blogs.

Now back to my blog post… if you have ever read my posts it wouldn’t come as a surprise to you that I am not a big fan of voices.com and their strange policies. Nor am I very pleased with their PR department.

Although I didn't get much reaction from our members (thanks alot guys! where's the love?) I did find out through the alchemy of modern google analytics that alot of people were coming to my blog just to read about the plugin tutorial. The next plugin tutorial is for the Multiband Compressor. This is a plugin that I use regularly to boost the gain a little and add a little punch to some of my VOs ... it also has a nice hiss remover that works more on frequances than actual data elimination. Here is a quote from wikipedia about the technical aspects...
