Audio Q&A23 SEP 2026
QUESTION · ALEXANDER
Lewitt have released wireless studio headphones with DSP that claim to be designed for mixing. What are your thoughts?
ANSWER · ALEXANDER & HOST & JEFF · AI SUMMARY
Skeptical of wireless headphones for mixing as previous attempts have been gimmicks. Lewitt is more trustworthy due to microphone expertise, but still believes wireless solution is unnecessary when mixing at a desk. Acknowledges mixing sometimes involves movement and notes the headphones include virtual studio monitor simulation via DSP; plans to test and report back. Mentions silent rave use case and notes people in studios may monitor through headphones rather than speakers in some scenarios.

QUESTION · TONY MOBLEY
Can you talk about how those of us using Audio Hijack and Loopback work with your app?
ANSWER · DAVID PASKIN · AI SUMMARY
Run My Show does not capture audio or video except for comms; it is read-only for Zoom chat integration. Users with Rode Caster hardware can route audio directly, but Audio Hijack/Loopback integration is possible but not documented by Paskin; community members could help configure it.

QUESTION · JASON BASCH
Are you getting the iPhone Duo?
ANSWER · GRANT & JASON · AI SUMMARY
Also decided against it; doesn't need another tablet-sized device when already owning multiple iPads and iPhones. No, decided against it because it doesn't have the same camera quality and fixed aperture/shutter needed for 3D model capture (USDZ) and lacks the on-sensor ML encoding of the iPhone 18 Pro.

KEEP THE LIGHTS ONFree forever isn't free
Free forever isn't free
to operate.
Seven shows a week. Six years and counting. No corporate sponsor, no subscription, no behavioural-ad business model. The math only works because viewers who can give, give — and because every dollar goes to the things that actually keep us on air.
FREE TO WATCH
No paywalls. No ads on stream. No 'premium tier'. This stays that way only if people who can pay, pay.
RUN BY VOLUNTEERS
Nobody on the panel takes a salary. Your $25 goes to Zoom, hosting, broadcast tooling — not consultants.
