Chatting with Cherney
Sessions With Slau
When I asked Ed Cherney to send me a photo for this blog post, this is what I got from him: OK, shortly thereafter he did supply the official picture. Ed Cherney is one of my heros. Never mind me trying to list the people he's worked with. Check it out for yourself on viagra his discography page and, better still, read his bio. He's a founding member of both the METAlliance and the Producers and Engineers wing of the Recording Academy. I couldn't possibly do him justice in a blog post. Aside from being an extraordinary talent and a vital part of the recording industry, the guy just cracks me...

Zen and the Art of Producing
Sessions With Slau
Last time Mixerman was on the show, we spoke about his book, Zen buy viagra online and the Art of mixing. This time around, we talk about his new release, zen and the Art of Producing. Having read this fantastic book twice, I probably could have asked a dozen more questions, given the scope of the work. It's the kind of material one can read several times and absorb new things with each pass. It's available from Amazon as well as brick and mortar cheap cialis online retailers. I was so incredibly excited to learn about the new Daily Adventures of Mixerman - An Audio Book...

So Anyway…
Sessions With Slau
So anyway… where was I? It's only been about 23 months since the previous episode. Geez… What can I say? There's too much to explain. I'll catch you guys up with the goings on over time but, for now, here are some of the things I talk about in this episode: METAlliance A couple of years ago, I attended the "In Session" event at Avatar Studios. This was a weekend of sessions with the likes of Al schmitt, Phil Ramone, George Massenburg, Elliot Scheiner, Frank Filipetti, Ed Cherney and Chuck Ainlay. It was a fabulous workshop and one of the most enjoyable events I've ever attended....

Mixerman Interview
Sessions With Slau
Mixing is neither a linear process nor a technical one. It's a musical process, and as such, a mix is some thing that one performs—like an artist. —Mixerman from "Zen and the Art of Mixing" Mixerman (a.k.a. Eric Sarafin) has certainly done his share of interviews in print but when I searched for recorded interviews, I basically came up with nothing. I figured that, with the release of his new book, "Zen and the Art of Mixing," he might be willing to spend some time talking about it. We talked about his musical background, education and career as well as his philosophy on recording...

Warning: Tangent!
Sessions With Slau
I actually did an episode back in early July but… well, it was just an exercise in Futility. Then, of course, my entire summer and half the fall were swallowed up by several projects and, well… you know how the story goes. Picking up right around where we left off: I did some vocal sessions with blessing Offor, a singer/songwriter signed to a development deal with EMI through Steven Ivy Music out of Nashville. blessing relocated from Nashville to New York and, fortuitously ended up about a 10-minute walk from the studio. It was the first series of sessions on which I used the DVA...

"Trebuchet" by George Hrab
Sessions With Slau
So, as many of you know, I've been recording albums for George Hrab for many years. In fact, this is his sixth album recorded at beSharp. It's always a blast and an adventure to record an generic cialis india album for him. This one was no exception, of course. I'll post a sort of "making of" episode soon that will include an interview with Geo. For now, thanks to geologic Records, here's the album in it's entirety. If you'd like to support the artist (and I'd encourage you, naturally), it can be found at CD baby and iTunes.

Advanced Audio CM-12 Mod
Sessions With Slau
One of the biggest trends in the pro audio world in the last 10 years, apart from the resurgence of the ribbon microphone, has been the modification of lower-end gear to yield high-end results. In many cases, a simple tube or transformer swap can immediately make a noticeable difference in the sound. In some cases, additional circuit changes can transform a good piece of equipment into great equipment that might rival the performance of gear many times its price. Perhaps nowhere is this more prevalent these days than with microphones. Not only are there a ton of sites that offer DIY solutions...

This was a weekend of sessions with the likes of Al schmitt, Phil Ramone, George Massenburg, Elliot Scheiner, Frank Filipetti, Ed Cherney and Chuck Ainlay. It was a fabulous workshop and one of the most enjoyable events I've ever attended. from what I understand, there's one coming up early next year. If you have an opportunity to attend—do it. Studio Renovation Well, I don't know what exactly to call it. It started out as a remodel, turned into a renovation but ultimately could be considered a rebuild. I'll eventually do an episode on the whole process but I'd like to do it in a video format. I'll probably need to enlist the help of somebody to shoot and edit. Orchestral Recording Last year was one of those years when I flew to Kiev to record an orchestra for Sulyma Productions. This time, my wife flew out toward the end of our week there and we stayed a few extra days. Again, I'll probably do a separate episode about that trip. Just catching up a bit for now. The Seven Little Foys I did another cast album for Chip Deffaa. This time, it was for a musical called "The Seven Little Foys." The big dilemma was that I was right in the middle of the demolition at the studio so I ended up tracking most of the recording at Dubway Studios. There are some photos from various sessions at Dubway and BeSharp (where I did the final overdubs) at Chip's web site. Although I normally don't answer questions on the podcast, I did take a few questions via Twitter right before recording the episode. I don't know if I'll make that a regular feature or not but I just did it on a whim. I've got two interviews in the can so I'll try to get them out http://www.izzit.org/cheap/viagra-online-cheap.html as soon as possible. What can I say? I'm trying to get back on the wagon… or is it off the wagon?
