Sort of, I could probably do an Australian who had lived in London for a while?

Groovy. I'm popping out at lunch today to the music store to finally invest in a desktop stand and pop filter for mine. The mic I currently use isn't what I ideally want, but the components will transfer easily to a new one.

I've scored nice pop filters on eBay for dirt cheap, so it might be worth it to take a look there too. (The stores in my neck of the woods often mark-up those things rather egregiously.)

Ended up just getting a replacement ball. It's a SHURE SM58 and the ball is about 20 years old. Hopefully that helps.
Also scored a sweet deal on an M-AUDIO ProKeys Sono 61 key controller for half the retail price. Woot!

Re: Reading/narration collaboration
Ah, very nice. I really like that Roland. I was eyeing up the Steinberg CI1. Right now I've just got a crappy old Line6 TonePort UX1 and it does the job, but it's really not a long term solution.

Re: Reading/narration collaboration
In all seriousness. Who can get me some vocal samples by, let's say, Wednesday of next week?
I'm working on updating the excerpt with some temped sound effects and possibly some minimal music.

I had this conversation a while back:
ROB'S GF: Why do I have only one of these black [panty]hose?
ROB: Uh. What's that now?
GF: What—did you take it or something?
ROB: [awkward pause] Uh. Yeah.
GF: You took my black pantyhose.
ROB: Yeah. I needed it.
GF: Okay. O-kay... I'm not sure I know what kind of conversation we're having right now.

But yeah, you can use a hanger, or score an embroidery hoop from an art supply place (or Wal-Mart, in my case) and make a homemade pop filter that ain't bad at all.

Awesome.
Teague, can you edit to add if anyone wants to do the title card or title animation? Have a look at what I've done previously for a taste. I'd love to do something more After Effects-y, but I don't have the skills.

[Edit] By title card, I mean the one for the story, not the one for the channel.

Re: Reading/narration collaboration
I should mention that you don't have to worry about any post processing on your vocal tracks. I'll be handling compression, dynamics etc during the mastering process.
