Change Over

Decided to move away from Box.net to DropBox as the file repository, as I get a tighter grip to the direct URLs which gives me the power to choose better audio players. Did not want you visitors to wait for ample seconds for the audio to load and play. Sometimes, you never know if it is loading or not. Did not like the ambiguity.

So, switched over to Dewplayer which seems to be loading the files much faster than the Box.net player. I can see the difference for sure and have tested out on IE8, FireFox and Chrome. Let me know if you face any issues.

Working on a few podcast ideas. Stay tuned!

No more pops!

My husband hates those pops (spikes) and he came up with the idea of making a custom pop filter. Few references online and here it is! A new addition to the home studio, "The Pop Filter". It does perform the job of filtering those pops, to perfection! Home made stuff is so cool and so cheap. Got this done with a fifteen rupee embroidery frame, nylon socks material, a photo holder (used as a stand) and a twine to tie. That is all it took and of course, thirty minutes of pure fun! Thanks, to my creative hubby.



Issues with the sound card have also been fixed and have learnt a trick or two in Audacity to make effective voice recordings. So, I am hoping to make progress by creating some noise-free recordings over the week.
