The Race for the Ultra-Lightest

The race to build the world’s most portable laptop can get ridiculous. Companies will build computers that fit on one knee, with screens little bigger than an iPhone’s — all for the sake of having the “world’s smallest laptop.”

DIY Portable Recording Studio

Portable Recording Booth As someone who travels regularly, I’m always looking for creative ways to get better sound from my audio recordings. Hotel rooms tend to echo and you don’t always have control over the environmental noises. I went looking for a solution that would offer a more controlled sound and ran across professional voice actor, Harlan Hogan’s, Porta-Booth, which is built from some fairly common components. You don’t have to travel to find this solution useful, it’s also a great way to tighten up your sound when recording at home without needing a whole room dedicated to recording. Making a few slight modifications, I put together a video showing how I built my own.
