Normally this is something I would save for Open Line Friday, but it\u2019s a guy watching the program on the Dittocam today at www.RushLimbaugh.com. He says, &#8216;On the Dittocam you\u2019re speaking a good distance from the microphone, yet your voice comes through loud and clear. How is this?\u2019 Brian says, &#8216;See, see? I told you.\u2019 Told you what? What are you &#8212; (interruption) &#8212; hm-hm. Well, we do have a great studio. Brian\u2019s the broadcast engineer here and thinks he\u2019s going to be praised and complimented for this in my answer to the question. The first thing is, I\u2019m looking at myself on the Dittocam monitor here and it does look like I\u2019m quite a ways away from it, but I\u2019m not. It\u2019s an optical illusion. I\u2019m probably within three inches of this microphone. There are two things at work here. This is a Golden EIB Microphone. It\u2019s an Electro-Voice RE-20, I believe, but those of us who are highly trained broadcast specialists know how to use these things. <\/p>\n<p>The incorrect way to use a microphone is to put it right in front of you like this (leaning in close) and speak into it because you pop your P\u2019s real bad, and that could be dangerous on certain words. We broadcast professionals turn it aside and speak across it so that our P\u2019s do not pop. We don\u2019t have to worry about anything like that, and with the compression that is built into our system here, I can move this microphone even further &#8212; well, you\u2019re probably hearing me not quite as loud, but the presence is still there. As I move it in closer, it gets a little bit more present, but not really louder. Now, sometimes I do what we professional broadcasters refer to as eat the microphone. That is when I really want to make a point. I am eating this microphone. My lips are touching this microphone right now. There are any number of highly trained specialist techniques that we who are professionals in this business use. The one thing about the microphone, I can\u2019t have it in the way here because I gesticulate wildly and I don\u2019t &#8212; (knocking it over) oops, doing that, knocking the microphone away from me. I might damage it as well. So while it looks like it\u2019s far away on the Dittocam, it\u2019s actually right in front of me, just turned off to the side. All right, quick time-out. We\u2019ll be back. Any other real radio announcer broadcast lessons that you would like, feel free to ask any question at any time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Quick little question here.
