PASport VO Day 3: Mmmmmmmmmm. How many audio interfaces give you TWO separate audio interfaces? And switches? Yes. There are switches. Things you don't want to bump are neatly recessed. Slick. Configurability is a good thing. #voiceover #proaudiosuite #justaskjimvo #vostudio #recordinggear

Enough time to pop it out of bag and smile. Been waiting to see this IRL for too long.
