Star Time #109: Poco-Loco
I'm incredibly excited about the voice-over EQ on this week's episode. Since I'm an amateur who produces this show with walkie-talkies, a plastic pylon and the most befuddled intern I can get from Central Casting, programming the right signal-processing chains to give me that husky, aphrodisiacal speaking voice can be tedious. No more. This week's show nails it. I've copied the settings. From now on, my lubricated wheeze is headed straight for your pericardium. Also: two hours of R&B greats from 1956 to 1966.
