      1. Samuel (PI of the amazing @_themusiclab) hypothesizes that we academics should try monitoring our own voice while teaching/presenting online. (I’ve tried and learned I prefer “mix-minus,” meaning I don’t hear myself live.) But you NEED practice to learn how to use a mic! @samuelmehr/1309677231447384064

      You don’t need golden ears to find hours of bad audio exhausting. You will disconnect (mentally or actually.) @lukestein/1298063470752083969 If you are pumping junk into your student’s/audience’s ears… why? They will disconnect. This matters so much more than your clothes or haircut.

    Get a decent mic FOR YOUR ROOM (maybe🎤 amzn.to/32FvROc ?) Put it close to your mouth. Monitor and/or listen to some recordings of yourself to figure out close and how loud to talk. (@tsmullaney has advice about mic work on his YouTube channel) [Thread 🙏 h/t @moreconx]
