Reliable session-to-session connectivity and noise control.

Investment thesis

Your contribution funds cables, pop filters & session kit ($350) — Reliable session-to-session connectivity and noise control. Deliverables include XLR cable set and Pop filters & windscreens.

Sessions fail on cables and pop filters more often than on cameras — this kit is the boring infrastructure that keeps the listening layer reliable session after session.
