Mobile Production with UA Volt

In this first episode, Mark meets Honey and Blue in Columbus, Ohio to record their new track “Up in the Clouds”, not in a studio, but outdoors, powered only by a laptop and the Universal Audio Volt 2.

Mark demonstrates how to capture professional sound with zero external power, recording vocals and acoustic guitar under open skies using a Lauten Audio Atlantis in figure-8 mode and an L.A. 120 for the guitar. He shares practical techniques for controlling wind noise, positioning mics for natural blend, and using high-pass filters in Luna to clean up rumble in real time.

This episode shows that audio engineering and creativity don’t need walls. You’ll learn how to record anywhere with bus-powered interfaces, how to blend two singers on one mic, and how minimal gear can still deliver stunning results when performance and intention come first.
