In this Briefing, Chuck talks about a piece of gear that you will never see, but that figures into the recording of just about every MacVoices episode: the Pro Co Short Stop Passive Mute Switch. This foot-controlled switch lets you silence your microphone at a moment’s notice without being distracted from the conversation and without anyone knowing you are doing it.
