One of the very neat, and likely under-utilized features in Nuendo is the Project Logical Editor. I say under-utilized because I know I sure don’t use it enough. It can make mundane, complex, or repetitive tasks super quick to handle……
Today I had the random thought to myself… “Whatever happened to those recordings for the giant pile driver you happened upon 9 months ago?” Then ensued a search through all of my SD cards to no avail. After almost accepting…
Wow, what a title! A lot of recordists I know make use of highly ultrasonic capable microphones like the Sanken CO100K and LOM Uši. Many opt to use them along with other microphones they like the sound of, but that…
If you follow me on Bluesky or Instagram, you might’ve seen me post stories or videos on some random sound design things I’m working on. Recently, I began gathering these videos on a more permanent home, my Youtube channel. I’ve…

The urban environment presents unique challenges to field recording. Read how I've learned to embrace and adapt to recording subjects in cities full of unwanted noise.
It’s been a while! I haven’t been terribly active online in the audio world for a while now. Partially from a desire to unplug, but largely because audio work has kept me very busy lately! Since my last post (June…
A long time ago I ran into a situation in a session at my work where I needed to dial a code on a phone patch, but couldn’t easily enter the code. I was connected to a phone conference via…
