He makes the point:

"My whole philosophy revolves around Showmanship
the gear, the threads, the performance, the groove and the vocal"


what does he mean by "threads?"

Statistics are always a good indicator of future trends. In my experience, only the top percentile makes the most money, whilst the rest just plod along until they make it or go awry and change fields. It's difficult to make a living in a creative industry. Writers, actors, singers, filmmakers, pain...

I have to admit that I may have GSC, Gear Superiority Complex. I think it's fair to say that maybe some might know what I mean. Better gear = better sound = more hits more success. Gear is like your business card, it says something about you and your believes in audio processes. These days, image co...

I have just moved some active Event 20/20s into a programming room I am using. I've used these extensively over the years, but not in this room, and after a couple of weeks thinking they were sounding particularly muddy and dull, I planned to trim the LF pot on the rear, hoping to cut a bit of the ...

Cool, thanks for heads up, what's it about?

n I know it's about sound.


what makes it good?

If this is a rumor I'm not surprised. Native Instruments are doing a huge collection of instruments based in Abbey Road Studios.

Love the group buy idea though, i read somewhere earlier.

Hi, Sibilance is a tricky thing to remove as it's dynamics changes through out a performance. Do too much and your singer sings with a lisp. It can be quite hard to master initially, but persevere and you get great soon enough. The best results in my experience was from waves, C1 comp-SC targetting ...

I read in here over and over again about using a "bright" sounding mic on "dull" sounding sources and "dark" sounding mics on "bright" sources. Or a tube pre to warm up a cold synth track. Are we* just trying to achieve gray? In film photography, if you use a light meter on a white snowy field it w...

Hi, Use MS. Recording In your situation, I'd place the mic judge above the head of the player, and point the Mid mic angled down point just at the top edge of the piano body. You will then be able to capture a sound that's close to what the player is experiencing. MS is great for Mono compatibility,...

In My Experience, Be Super Supportive and Gentle to the Vocalist. Be Positive in a reassuring way, build confidence. Be fast with setup, better still, setup b4 client arrives. Do 1-6 takes of each line. Term of Recording. -------------------- Use your best Condenser Mic, I love my Neumann M149 on Fe...

Hi, I'd try giving the client what he/she wants. Even though it sounds too "distant" for your liking, your client likes that "wet" sound. It's not your fault that your client insist on having the reverb real high. They may actually like that sound in the mix? different is good. In future, i'd take a...

Bugs BUgs and more Bugs. That's what limits creativity. Software bugs and crashes are more common. Aside from having great workarounds, this seems to be the trend. With new updates, expect more silly bugs cropping up everywhere. But I'd rather live with bugs in DAW then to go backwards and use chunk...
