The audio test

Not the most interesting post Ive made but I have started testing out upgrades to my sound quality. step1- test a cheap usb mic, ie GHWT step2- research better usb mics, ie Condenser mics step3- research proper quality mics step4- research sound proofing, deadening etc So step 1 is done and I think i can get better sound already with what I have but I can still do more to improve even that. Im still aiming for an NT1a plus Interface (2i2 is looking good) but may have to go for a cheap usb Condenser as the next step. Expect an update when it happens

Episode 24 Gen Con 2012

I talk about Gen Con 2012 in my latest Episode
.
FFG had an amazing display but of course others were there who deserved coverage.

You Tube has a lot of cool coverage-
Team Covenant, The Dice tower , Blue Table Painting, Beasts of War and others

PS
Very sad to hear that Neil Armstrong passed away, an amazing man who seemed content to stand out of the spotlight of fame. To me he is a legend, deserving massive respect unlike some modern so called famous people. A true hero and a massive source of inspiration.

Episode 22- Mice and Mystic Prologue

Yes I mucked up so Episode 23 is in fact Episode 22 but never mind. I am working on Episode 24 which will be all about Gen Con 2012 and stuff Im wanting to spend my imaginary money on.

This Episode is in fact the first part of the Prologue to Book One: Sorrow and Remembrance "Bedtime for Tip" from the sexy new Mice and Mystics board game. I have read the first few paragraphs and added some ambient wind effects. Its my idea for making an mp3 library to play during the game. So what do you think??

Grab the pdf for the rules and the first story chapter from Plaid Hat games

Welcome to Blogger

Hello and welcome to what I hope will be the new home for the UK Gamers Podcast. The show has currently run for 22 episodes and has an irregular update on various news items and points of interest. I try to cover war games, board games, role playing games and video games- I do however have a soft spot for miniatures! Going forward in 2012 and beyond I hope to use Blogger and a file server to keep the show ticking over. I am open to offers/bribes of 1,000,000,000 Quatloos

Episode 44 - 2023 and Critical role
