Dan Dugan joins the hosts on episode 208. With over 55 years in the industry, he is the first person in theater to be called a Sound Designer, developed the first effective automatic microphone mixer, and a nature sound recordist. They discuss his process of recording nature sounds, and how it is a mix of art and science. Dan tells the journey of how the auto-mixer was invented and perfected through the years, breaks down how it works, and more.
