I have no fear of AI. Instagram just threw this advert at me. I’m a sound recordist, these are my mortal enemy.

Nothing says Friday morning like an engineering group email about the history of headphone wiring conventions for mono series desk outputs.

OB at Tilbury Docks for the Windrush arrival anniversary for BBC Essex. All held together with a couple of Comrex

Another OB for BBC Essex, hopefully not my last. Main line crosslock on Comrex and backup Comrex on radiocar WiFi, also providing a PA feed on the return line out (some cleanfeed fun there)

He's not looking good this morning. Bit of a heavy night mate?

An interesting impulse response from my OB location this morning. Basically stood in the middle of a brick doughnut.

When engineering Tony Fisher for BBC Children in Need there is only one accessory you need.

Whilst looking for unwanted files to delete to free up drive space I have stumbled across the ‘BBC East Regional Knowledgebase’ website files from 1996-1999. Surely that’s a nationally important historical document by now?!

Breakfast OB from London Stansted Airport for BBC Essex, using the ever reliable Comrex broadcast kit.

Did anyone I know do that Co-op Twitter advert? Is that my digi-slate at the start? It sure looks like it but I can’t remember when I last hired it out.

Pretty sure this is the sign of an unhappy UPS

The rules have remained the same ever since broadcasting was invented, so here’s a quick reminder: If there’s a microphone in the room, assume it’s plugged in and recording.

Do media they said. It’ll be really glamorous they said.

Tax return done. Bloody thing added student loan to the total even though I finished paying it off. Guess I’ve got to pay it then claim it back.

With the prospect of holding a Comrex USB2 from 0400 to 1900 for Rob Jelly III BSc’s silliness, I build this.

Before and after a Coles refurb. Well worth it I’d say. All 4 have come back like new.

Can someone gif this as an infinite loop and make a webpage out of it please? Thanks. x.com/mrmattwade/sta…

First of many lives for Rob Jelly III BSc #EssexSportsTour

Alarm at 4am, home at 10pm. I’ve lost count of the times I put my mixer and Comrex pack on today, but it was very worth it for this thread of greatness. Top work Rob Jelly III BSc and Victoria Polley! x.com/bbcessex/statu…

1 radio headset, 1 radio handheld, 1 wired boom, 1 wired handheld backup, 2 IEM sends. All channels iso recorded on Sound Devices 664 and mix sent via Comrex back to the station for lives, backup record and clips. Lovely. #EssexSportsTour
