Better Voiceover Audio Using Adobe Soundbooth CS4

I inherited an Articulate Presenter-based piece in which the audio was recorded at different times, using different microphones, etc. The voiceover talent was no longer available so I re-recorded using new voices. I always record using Audacity, but I find it’s built-in effects are limited and weaker than the ones in Soundbooth. After much trial [...]

Why I don’t Post Much (i.e., What do I do with this Blog?)

I’ve not posted much to this blog. Not nearly as much as I thought I would, anyway. I am going to start posting more often, but the problem is that I no longer do much elearning design or development (which was supposed to be the topic of this blog, hence the ‘elearninglive.com’ domain), and even [...]

T-Mobile To Stop Selling @Home Service

A reader (thanks John!) was kind enough to send me a link to an article proclaiming that T-Mobile is going to stop selling the @Home service. The article reads like it’s a done deal, and sure enough it is. Further research confirms that T-Mobile is stopping sales of the @Home service once the inventory of [...]

My Comparison of Verizon FIOS and Comcast Internet and TV Services

I moved this past July to a new house that previously had FIOS installed. I was pretty thrilled with the prospect of getting off of Comcast and moving to Verizon FIOS. It’s been almost 4 months now since first switching to FIOS for my internet and TV, and as much as it pains me to [...]

T-Mobile@Home Call Forwarding Options

Wish I had known about the excellent call forwarding options that came with the @Home service. If you do nothing else, at least look at the CALL FORWARDING IF NOT REACHABLE option. Can’t imagine why would NOT set that one up at least. In fact, after looking these over and knowing the issues we’ve had [...]

Adobe MAX Day Two (cont’d)

Just left the “Quickly Mockup a Business Website” – another Fireworks session. Seems like there are lots of Flex, lots of AIR, and lots of Fireworks sessions here. *Very* little Flash IDE-based sessions. It’s just Flex Flex Flex.

MAX 2008: Day Two Notes

Keynote – Thermo is now officially titled Adobe Flash Catalyst. I’m one of the lucky few that got a prerelease build of that along with the latest prerelease of Flex Gumbo, but of course here at MAX it is ‘uncool’ to not be an Apple fanboy so Adobe only gave out the Mac version prerelease [...]

My IP Hasn’t Changed Since the T-Mobile@Home Firmware Update

A couple of months ago I applied the latest firmware update for the T-Mobile@Home/Linksys router and have not experienced any issues with the service since. In particular the ‘blue light’ special (service outage). I, with the help of some great readers/comments, was pretty certain that the reason the blue light was going out on the [...]
