Kara,

The perfect thing to wear for our NC VO get-together in a week and a day! Laugh Then again, maybe not. Wink

Wow Kara, you and I like to shop at the same places. Although mine is a little snug. It's hard to buy off the rack when you're a giant.

Hmmm..I bought SC a month ago. Since then, three new clients contacted me from the contact list on the Source Elements website. Seems there is a need. There are people who use it. And there is money to be made.

Now, back to the nay sayers.

Its useful, it works, clients like it, its an investment and its tax deductable.

I put it into the 'speculate to accumulate' column and its another reason for a client not to not use me.....if thats not too tortological.

Main reasons for buying:

1. Agents/Producers that liked my work, but require ISDN. (Not in my budget, but SC w/the bridge is).


Hey Donovan can you give more information about the SC w/ bridge? Does that allow you to connect to someone with ISDN, or do you have to find a studio that has ISDN and SC and then have them connect to the other studio that has only ISDN?

Rich, have a look at the SC website they list 4 companies that will bridge. Digifon, Ednet, Outofhere & Sphere.

I guess they all work in more or less the same way, in either direction.

Rich,

I've used Digifon for sessions like this. It's worked seamlessly for my clients.

Thanks Bob, do you have the Pro version of Source Connect or standard? I am curious if standard is sufficient or do most clients want the higher bit rate of Pro?

Just out of curiosity how much do you normally have to pay for a bridging session?

Rich,

Standard. Aside from a few fine adjustment settings and the ability to have multiple, simultaneous connects, the two versions are very similar. Digifon is $50, plus ISDN line charges, for a half-hour (if booked 24 hours in advance) session.

Thanks Bob, I just wanted to make sure that the standard version provided a high enough quality recording. I am now living in an area where ISDN is not a likely option so I want to make sure I have an adequate option.

I had no idea that Digifon was so expensive, I realise that its a much cheaper option than installing ISDN, but given some of the rates paid, it must make it barely economical to do the work!! Gasp
