Office Hours for Dec 11, 2021 – Office Hours 627
00:00 Intro
05:48 When folks are bringing their audio chain into Audio Hijack what kind of processing are they doing with it? What is the goal? Extra gain, fx?
07:13 I remember reading about a concert where a synthesist improvised ambient music live before the band went on stage. How is that created? Is it basically a pad playing the chord progression and improvising a lead line on top?
07:38 I’m looking for a good way to make Thumbnails for YouTube. Any recommendations to make them pop and eye-catching?
08:18 Is it possible to still obtain a WIRED USB Mac keyboard. (the extended version)
09:45 I have an Elgato stream deck, I contacted Elgato before I purchased the 2nd one, Support told me I could clone them to be exactly the same . I did that but sometimes one of the buttons does not perform the way it should. Any ideas?
10:57 I’ve discovered today that the dreaded orange dot indicating a microphone is active appears on macOS Monterey even in full screen. Has anyone figured out how to make it go away yet?
14:44 Alex are speakers being mounted to the Maker Pipe Posts? for surround sound
17:30 I am trying to run a 2 GB Keynote infinite loop presentation. The computer is a Mac Mini M1, 256 GB Storage, 8GB of Memory. It crashes with an out of memory error after 3 or 4 hours. Memory Leak?
18:33 Could you use MakerPipe and EMT to build pipe and drape?
19:19 Especially enjoy philosophical Sundays but I am not always available, what’s the best and/or easiest way to record locally with an m1 mini?
20:36 Is there a list of compatible cameras that are color controllable within the Black Magic Design ATEM Mini?
23:02
23:59 It seems clients believe Live Streaming is just getting a camera or cellphone video to a platform and don’t see the production value.
Q: How to land serious clients with a small live production company?
28:52 Loopback is a fantastic piece of software on Mac. Would it be possible to use an Elgato Streamdeck to change between different preset routings?
29:52 What would it take to productize the OH 2.0 framework for deployment in K-12 or University settings?
39:48 Any thoughts on the focus an zoom demands for the BM Studio Camera 4K ? I count 3 lenses with which this works. Really?
40:40 Has anyone seen a company outside of BMD that has cracked the Camera control portion of the SDK? We can switch, we can control super source with things like mix effect, streamdeck and AtemOSC. But non of these are tapped into CCU.
42:52 BBC Click feat. a new law that EV’s to make sound, but don’t specify the sound. Each manufacturer is producing their own, and some include the “5 musical horn melody” and one includes the opening bar of “Hard Day’s Night” What would you choose?
47:19 Michael Krasney was a great conversation this week, will he be back when his new book comes?
48:05 Can john pretto give a summary of the rocket launch team and progress?
49:25 In an article about low-latency satellite connectivity on Navy ships, it mentioned sailors attending “family dinners” and other personal events via Zoom. Would there be a market for “smart” spaces (like restaurants) with quality audio/video?
50:52 I’m losing sync in two 40 min clips. Didn’t realize they were shot at different frame rates. What’s the fastest way to match a 29.97 clip with a a 30 clip?
53:56 Has anyone built a studio framework using tetrahedrons?
