    AI Noise Reduction: Pros, Cons, and Pitfalls in Audio Post

From Descript’s Studio Sound to Adobe Podcast’s quick-fix tools, we explore how these AI-driven solutions are shaking up audio post-production. What works? What doesn’t? And when do these tools cross the line from helpful to downright hallucinating? Join Robbo, George, Robert, and Andrew as they unpack real-world examples of AI audio gone right—and hilariously wrong. Plus, we talk about best practices for using these tools without sacrificing natural sound. Big thanks to our sponsors: Austrian Audio – Making passion heard.

    The Future of Voice Licensing: AI, James Earl Jones, and the Ethics of Voice Replication

    In this episode of the Pro Audio Suite, the team dives into the ever-evolving landscape of AI and voice licensing, exploring the groundbreaking decision by James Earl Jones to license his voice to Disney. What does this mean for voice actors? And where do we draw the line between legal licensing and exploitation? We also discuss recent lawsuits surrounding AI voice replication, the ethical boundaries of using voices without permission, and what these changes could mean for the future of the industry. The conversation gets heated as Robbo, AP, George "The Tech" Whittam, and Robert Marshall debate whether AI voice replication is an opportunity or a looming threat. With insights from the legal world, current case studies, and expert opinions, this episode is a must-listen for anyone in the audio or voiceover industries. Want to get involved?

That’s amazing, isn’t it? But it’s kind of weird, actually.” — Robbo “I think that if you should absolutely own the rights to whatever you upload into some AI engine...the fact that these companies are enabling theft, it’s b******t.” — Robert Marshall “It’s straight simple, it’s plagiarism. If you quote somebody, you have to give them credit. Sucking in a bunch of information that’s not yours and turning it into code is theft.” — George "The Tech" Whittam Episode Highlights: James Earl Jones’ legacy: How licensing his voice ensures he and his family continue to benefit from its use long after he’s gone. Case studies on AI misuse: Real-world examples of AI companies exploiting artists’ voices. Legal perspectives on ownership: What do you actually own when it comes to your voice, and how can you protect it in the age of AI?
