I work at an ad agency in Toledo and Mark handles just about all the audio stuff I get involved with. I occasionaly voice stuff for a client there too. Even if I record something at home I have Mark check it over at his place. I have known him for a long time ... at Audiocom on Sylvania Ave in Toledo, and before that HANF recording, which eventually became Audiocom. He's the best and is a great friend. Did I see somewhere that you work(ed) at WLKR? I applied for a job there one summer while I was in College. I remember the owner saying to me, "Why would I have any more work in the summer, than I do in the Winter?"

I love your work. When were you on WMMS? I grew up in Cleveland in the 80's. WMMS and G98 were my favorite stations then. I worked in Cleveland for a little while too. WRQC and WLTF.

I still hear your stuff on concert spots a LOT! Awesome!!

At 4:40pm on September 27, 2008, Joe Cipriano (joecip on twitter) said…: So your M5 MIC db setting is at 0?

Uh, well no. That's how "loud" or "soft" you are hitting the M5. So, when I'm doing an uptempo Fox comedy...the input would be set around 10 oclock...if I'm doing a soft drama promo it might be at around 2 oclock. I set it based on the VU meter, so that I'm not hitting the pre-amp to hard or too soft. It's also different depending on what mic your using. It's all predicated by the VU. Joe

At 4:19pm on September 27, 2008, Joe Cipriano (joecip on twitter) said…: Hey Joe....was wondering the mic setting on your M5. I too use a 416 & M5 combo.

Hi Chuck...the M5 is just flat. I don't have any filter or pad in. It's just mic in and audio out. Joe
