I'm a big Tape Op fan.
I'm wondering why 'The Big Misconception' omits any reference to electronic music?
As an 'analogue studio in a box', the inadequacies of a computer are well documented. What about that vast area of music which uses the computer to create? And, dare I say it, which has forged a different skill set only partly informed by traditional studio craft? |

You are correct. but if you are looking at electronic music that is created in this style, then it has no real precedent of analog/studio recording that it is replacing, hence this is not what journalists and such are referring to. Artists like Larry Fast, Kraftwerk, Steve Roach and many others built their own studios to record in those "pre DAW" days. And they spent fair amounts of money to do so. So if you look at it in this other light it's applicable in ways too...
