My guest is Dave Hamilton, Co-host of Mac Geek Gab, Gig Gab, and The Small Business Show. He is also the Co-founder of The Mac Observer and BackBeat Media.

We discussed tons of valuable info, including:

• Heil PR40 - since 2016
• Presonus Quantum 2626 - the thunderbolt line
• Audio Hijack - to record the fully mixed audio LIVE
• Logic Pro
• Sending everything to a buss sent to BlackHole (what Soundflower was, creates 2 audio devices)
• Squadcast input set to BlackHole
• ICON Platform M+ --- external control surface, 9 faders, ~$450, least expensive WITHOUT motorized faders,
• He tested the Presonus Faderport 8 which is ~$1,200
• Without motorized faders: Korg nanoKONTROL Studio Mobile MIDI Control Surface
• Processing in Logic Pro: EQ, noise gate, compressor, de-esser
• Mastering chain: Compression - quite heavy, de-esser, limiter
• Adding a touch of reverb to “put everyone in the same room.” Used to use an ART outboard reverb unit. In Logic he uses Chromaverb.
• Auphonic for leveling, processing, adding metadata, chapters (add manually or import a text file!), convert to MP3, send directly to FTP server.
• CashFly for media hosting
• Feed generated from PowerPress

Thanks for being a great guest, Dave!
