00:01:58,550 --> 00:01:55,340 audio clip is not only heard by myself 35 00:02:01,639 --> 00:01:58,560 but it's also heard by my co-host on 36 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:01,649 skype joe and clown baby when they call 37 00:02:07,700 --> 00:02:04,770 in through skype they're able to hear 38 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:07,710 those audio drops they're able to hear 39 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:16,170 horn honks they're able to hear 40 00:02:23,220 --> 00:02:19,690 definitely all the soundboards now 41 00:02:27,090 --> 00:02:23,230 initially let's start off with what 42 00:02:31,020 --> 00:02:27,100 programs i'm using here is the desktop 43 00:02:36,180 --> 00:02:31,030 let's set let's go on over there oh here 44 00:02:37,950 --> 00:02:36,190 is my desktop it is the Macintosh yeah 45 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:37,960 i'm using the macintosh this is a mac 46 00:02:44,010 --> 00:02:41,290 mini and the software I'm using to play 47 00:02:47,610 --> 00:02:44,020 a majority of kind of my standard clips 48 00:02:50,790 --> 00:02:47,620 is a program called sound bite it you 49 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:50,800 get stabbed search for sound bite and it 50 00:02:55,620 --> 00:02:53,170 will come right up on Google I believe 51 00:02:58,740 --> 00:02:55,630 there is a $35 version which gives you 52 00:03:02,400 --> 00:02:58,750 one rack so each page here is one rack 53 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:02,410 and I have or like racks he told me 54 00:03:07,260 --> 00:03:05,170 enough and I have a categorized by these 55 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:07,270 are all my kind of transitions these are 56 00:03:12,090 --> 00:03:09,010 all my kind of you don't 57 00:03:14,630 --> 00:03:12,100 understand some go to stuff got some 58 00:03:17,370 --> 00:03:14,640 Alex Jones stuff going on winning and 59 00:03:23,670 --> 00:03:17,380 over here's some movie effects that I'll 60 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:23,680 use like a door opening up or some sheep 61 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:24,850 sound effects you never know when you 62 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:28,450 need a good cheap sound effect and this 63 00:03:36,690 --> 00:03:32,290 is all done on on sound bite if for four 64 00:03:41,009 --> 00:03:36,700 racks I believe it costs like $99 one 65 00:03:44,490 --> 00:03:41,019 Rex I think $35 and so I cut up all my 66 00:03:47,100 --> 00:03:44,500 my clips in a program called audacity 67 00:03:49,530 --> 00:03:47,110 which is a free program free audio 68 00:03:51,420 --> 00:03:49,540 editing program and I cut them up and 69 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:51,430 then I put them in a folder on that drag 70 00:03:56,940 --> 00:03:53,890 and drop him over to sound bite and this 71 00:04:01,020 --> 00:03:56,950 is how I play everything and so this 72 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:01,030 will be like a clip will be going I was 73 00:04:04,590 --> 00:04:02,530 at your day yeah something like that i'm 74 00:04:07,310 --> 00:04:04,600 sorry this is very very explicit but 75 00:04:09,420 --> 00:04:07,320 that that sound clip will be played 76 00:04:13,470 --> 00:04:09,430 through on the computer and then out 77 00:04:15,900 --> 00:04:13,480 into the mixer and then the mixer then 78 00:04:19,170 --> 00:04:15,910 carries it back into the computer in the 79 00:04:22,350 --> 00:04:19,180 mic port and that's the same like port 80 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:22,360 that this microphone gets its pushed 81 00:04:26,999 --> 00:04:25,210 into and that way anybody on skype 82 00:04:30,300 --> 00:04:27,009 here not only myself but they're able to 83 00:04:32,610 --> 00:04:30,310 hear the audio clips as well it sounds 84 00:04:33,870 --> 00:04:32,620 pretty good i I'm very curious to hear 85 00:04:35,730 --> 00:04:33,880 what it sounds like on there and they 86 00:04:37,770 --> 00:04:35,740 haven't recorded it and send it back to 87 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:37,780 me so I don't know what the mixes I 88 00:04:41,370 --> 00:04:39,370 think it's pretty good i think the mix 89 00:04:45,180 --> 00:04:41,380 is pretty good and it sounds pretty even 90 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:45,190 to my voice but that's that's how it's 91 00:04:50,999 --> 00:04:47,770 done so it kind of its sky design the 92 00:04:54,450 --> 00:04:51,009 computer so when I have skype going I'll 93 00:04:57,300 --> 00:04:54,460 bring it open um so now have skype go 94 00:04:59,850 --> 00:04:57,310 going I'm talking to my like my 95 00:05:02,400 --> 00:04:59,860 podcasting friends they're skype audio 96 00:05:07,350 --> 00:05:02,410 is also dumped out into the board and 97 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:07,360 that also gets dumped back in so you can 98 00:05:13,379 --> 00:05:09,849 have a little bounce back or delay when 99 00:05:18,390 --> 00:05:13,389 you do this system but pot but the skype 100 00:05:20,129 --> 00:05:18,400 does a pretty good job at having a noise 101 00:05:23,070 --> 00:05:20,139 cancellation system so when one person 102 00:05:27,180 --> 00:05:23,080 is talking it'll cancel it out and the 103 00:05:29,730 --> 00:05:27,190 audio that runs from the soundbite 104 00:05:32,879 --> 00:05:29,740 boards he told me enough is just a 105 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:32,889 little bit lower in volume so the person 106 00:05:38,310 --> 00:05:35,530 on skype talking doesn't really compete 107 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:38,320 too much with the sound clips uh it will 108 00:05:43,110 --> 00:05:40,690 cut and you'll have to toy around with 109 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:43,120 the level of which it gets pushed back 110 00:05:48,540 --> 00:05:46,570 into the computer from the mixer but it 111 00:05:51,270 --> 00:05:48,550 sounds good you'll have you encounter a 112 00:05:52,649 --> 00:05:51,280 little delay like I said if you but once 113 00:05:59,300 --> 00:05:52,659 you start tweaking it'll it'll work 114 00:06:04,050 --> 00:05:59,310 pretty well now for recording and 115 00:06:09,689 --> 00:06:04,060 listening to game audio so when I play 116 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:09,699 for example Rainbow six siege yeah 117 00:06:17,670 --> 00:06:13,570 Rainbow six siege I use this exact same 118 00:06:20,730 --> 00:06:17,680 setup and anybody who's in the party 119 00:06:23,370 --> 00:06:20,740 chat or is in game will hear me through 120 00:06:26,879 --> 00:06:23,380 this microphone and I will hear them 121 00:06:29,870 --> 00:06:26,889 through these headphones because their 122 00:06:34,820 --> 00:06:29,880 audio is being captured and being run 123 00:06:38,519 --> 00:06:34,830 into the board so how do i do this i 124 00:06:39,150 --> 00:06:38,529 have two different things going on here 125 00:06:43,650 --> 00:06:39,160 too 126 00:06:47,190 --> 00:06:43,660 to to capture the game audio I have it 127 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:47,200 the xbox audio in two different channels 128 00:06:55,140 --> 00:06:52,570 one channel is for the people in game 129 00:06:58,250 --> 00:06:55,150 their voices and then the second channel 130 00:07:01,920 --> 00:06:58,260 is for the actual game audio which is 131 00:07:04,410 --> 00:07:01,930 the gunfire the music anything anything 132 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:04,420 that is non voice related that's a 133 00:07:16,890 --> 00:07:09,210 second channel I use for the xbox one I 134 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:16,900 use this this is a $90 add-on for the 135 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:19,810 xbox one it allows you to plug in I 136 00:07:28,530 --> 00:07:26,650 think a 3.5 inch adapter and that allows 137 00:07:31,980 --> 00:07:28,540 you to plug in a turtle beach headphone 138 00:07:35,370 --> 00:07:31,990 or any anything really anything that 139 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:35,380 require has a mic and a stereo audio 140 00:07:43,770 --> 00:07:39,930 left and right what I do I put in this 141 00:07:45,420 --> 00:07:43,780 splitter that may seem I pull it up a 142 00:07:49,410 --> 00:07:45,430 little bit more I put it in the splitter 143 00:07:54,990 --> 00:07:49,420 it's a star tech comm splitter that 144 00:07:58,260 --> 00:07:55,000 allows me to run an auxiliary line from 145 00:08:02,780 --> 00:07:58,270 my board into the mic channel here it 146 00:08:06,210 --> 00:08:02,790 allows me to run out the the chat audio 147 00:08:09,659 --> 00:08:06,220 to the board much the same way that I 148 00:08:14,550 --> 00:08:09,669 would run out the skype from my mac into 149 00:08:17,850 --> 00:08:14,560 the board now the problem that I ran 150 00:08:21,270 --> 00:08:17,860 into when running the the chat audio out 151 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:21,280 from from this to the board is that this 152 00:08:27,780 --> 00:08:23,050 is not powerful enough the the actual 153 00:08:30,810 --> 00:08:27,790 xbox controller the xbox controller is 154 00:08:34,130 --> 00:08:30,820 not doesn't have enough game to push out 155 00:08:36,570 --> 00:08:34,140 the audio at a high volume so I had to 156 00:08:40,260 --> 00:08:36,580 come with the way to boost the audio and 157 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:40,270 that was too what if I can hold this up 158 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:47,730 real quick my solution was to 159 00:08:52,850 --> 00:08:50,730 use this so I have the this is a 160 00:08:55,879 --> 00:08:52,860 headphone amplifier all does is 161 00:09:01,250 --> 00:08:55,889 amplified signal an audio signal though 162 00:09:05,230 --> 00:09:01,260 I run this xbox controller the audio out 163 00:09:10,340 --> 00:09:05,240 into this and this goes into my audio 164 00:09:13,009 --> 00:09:10,350 mixer so by using the mixer I not only 165 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:13,019 have control of how the audio is heard 166 00:09:17,629 --> 00:09:15,810 whether or not I want to mute it or make 167 00:09:19,730 --> 00:09:17,639 it louder or not let's say for instance 168 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:19,740 i'm on xbox live and i want to joke 169 00:09:26,060 --> 00:09:21,810 around and goof around a little bit i 170 00:09:30,470 --> 00:09:26,070 can change the sound of my voice by 171 00:09:35,150 --> 00:09:30,480 clicking the effects and so now it will 172 00:09:38,030 --> 00:09:35,160 sound like this I can call open I just 173 00:09:40,569 --> 00:09:38,040 kidnapped your kid man I'm on xbox man 174 00:09:42,889 --> 00:09:40,579 this is pretty cool I
