Office Hours for Jan 29, 2022 - Office Hours 676
00:00 Intro
00:48 Is there a "missing manual" for the Flow 8? - the 'getting started' guide is light on details
01:34 Does Keynote have a boolean function?
05:25 How are we doing as a nation [United States] in training the next generation of Audio and Video professionals?
14:58 Roland just announced the release of the UVC-02, a web presentation device that mixes audio and can output web video to Zoom. What do you think of it?
18:39 Yesterday I was on a Zoom call that would not launch the Zoom App, but only would allow the participants to use the Web app. What happened there?
21:03 The IOS zoom app has the option to turn off incoming video in a meeting, but not in webinar it seems. Might it be cool to have a button to listen to webinars in “Radio mode”?
22:48 I recently had big trouble with customers network security, which nearly prohibited the Zoom Webinar. So I really need a backup and bonding solution. Is LiveU Solo a good choice? Budget is as low as possible.
27:14 What is "ducking"?
28:37 what are good ways to convince executives of the importance of good audio and video in hybrid meetings? Sadly they often seem to be resistent to suggestions.
31:58 Anyone else update they're Mac to 12.2 with no problem?
33:16 What is "Tri-Level Sync" and when should use this over black burst for sync?
34:44 Which introduction level audio sound mixer brand would you recommend with 8 channels?
38:35 For someone who wants to get into photography, what's the best camera for sub $1000?
44:26 I've noticed that many state/local government entities use Verizon (in the US) for cellular service and not AT&T or T-Mobile. Why could that be?
49:02 Family member started and hosted a Zoom meeting as host with the free account. Kept on hitting the 40min. limit. I joined the meeting with a paid account and they made me host but 40min limit still there. Must a paid account start a meeting so no 40m
52:00 When I applied to a major truck company apprenticeship program, they rejected me because of "lack of experience" despite a background in the IT world. As we move towards an IT-centric future, should we look to the IT world to recruit new people?
53:15 There doesn't seem to be a way to use blend modes (multiply, screen, overlay etc) in Keynote. Is this something that might be coming or is it a too advanced feature to be hoping for?
55:17 Which general management tool can the panel recommend? There are so many tasks, mails and messages to be handeled, that I loose oversight very quick. Using PC, Mac Android and iOS. Any cost effective suggestions?
57:16 Where do I go to purchase Unity Coms headsets outside of the US?
57:42 What are current WFH recommendations for 1 or 2 channel XLR-USB audio interfaces, particularly for an MV7 microphone? I see Focusrite, Steinberg, PreSonus, and Roland models locally available currently - MixPre's and Flow8 not locally in stock.
