The only thing missing is a way to connect my PC to both the headphones and the sound bar via optical. My 5 consoles are connected to the A50's and the sound bar via an HDMI switcher that outputs Optical at the same time as the HDMI that I've had for a while. “Made On A Mac” bumper by Mark Fleserįind more editions at the TMO To Go: Mac Geek Gab index.Hey, everyone, I'm looking for a way to get two sources of optical audio, my PC and my consoles, sent to two different decoders at the same time, an Astro A50 headphones MixAmp TX and a Sony HT-CT660 sound bar. Theme Music: “The Answer”, written by Jeff Steblea and Brian Ayles, as performed by Go Figure. You can hear more details of the setup and how it’s mixed on Episode #32. Michael Johnston from iPhone Alley then goes through and enhances the show to provide you with the AAC version.
The show is recorded to AIFF, and then converted and uploaded with an Automator script.
Each microphone is run through a channel on a Behringer Autocom Pro-XL MDX1600 compressor, a touch of reverb is added with an ART FX-1 processor, and the whole thing is then compressed in software on the Mac. On Dave’s end, a Heil PR-40 microphone is also used, and the whole show is mixed “live” through a Mackie Onyx 1220 FireWire-enabled mixer before being pumped back into the Mac (via FireWire, of course), and is monitored with Westone ES2 custom-fit earphones. As for equipment, John is using a Heil PR-40 microphone going through a Behringer Eurorack UB1222FX-PRO mixer, monitored with Etymotic ER-6i Isolator earphones, then straight in to his Mac. This podcast is recorded on a Mac using Audio Hijack Pro.
