This week we talk to Antonio Anzalua from Warm Audio about their Neumann U87 clone, the WA 87. It has been touted by industry veterans as "the closest to the real thing", but with a price point that is nothing even remotely similar to the original.

Andrew gets the low down on how Warm Audio managed to pack in so much punch for such little outlay, and we give you the chance to hear for yourself why it's worth considering as an addition to your stable of microphones if you're running a home studio, creating your own podcast, or even just auditioning from home.

Social Media promises so much. Access to Creatives and Producers, a chance to sell your self to people that you may have never been able to reach 10 years ago before the dawn of Facebook.

But what platform works best for the media. How do you go about contacting these people? Do you sell yourself from the moment they connect or wait and see where things go?

In this week's show, we talk to Dan Hurst returns to the studio to share his experience and success online to drive his personal brand's success to new heights. Here's the link to the Mojo Radio Show episode featuring Christopher J Reed Robbo mentions in this show..

It's one of those annoying things. You nail the brief, pause where required, color and shade are abundant throughout your read, and there's just the right amount of smile. Then the engineer opens the talkback and says. "that was great, perfect in fact", but we'll just have to do one more. There were a few mouth clicks in there". 

What can you do to avoid them? Is there anything you can do? This week AP and Robbo discuss the dilemma and some possible solutions that may suit you.

Unsure why your voice tracks sound distorted sometimes even tho VU meter says that they shouldn't be? This is where you need to understand the concept of GAIN and Level. In this week's Episode, Robbo tries to unravel the difference and give you an understanding of the difference and how to use them.

It's happened to all of us. You're in a session, and all of a sudden you're getting feedback, or the client listening at the other end says they can't hear you. If you're not confident in understanding how your studio works, and where problems can occur, you get that sinking feeling in your gut and a blind sense of panic sets in. 

In this episode, tho, AP and Robbo discuss how you can work quickly and confidently to solve the problem and keep your client's blood pressure down.
