Intentions and Directions

Firstly, many thanks for the encouragement and suggestions over the last week!  Keep the suggestions and criticisms coming:  they help me to stay focused and give me ideas on just what might be of interest/value to the readers of future posts.  This is not a "one-way" exercise:  I hope for and expect input, questions, corrections and ideas from my visitors.

My intentions:  To explain and set forth my approach to sound recording, and the techniques that may be employed to achieve the goal of preserving the musical event with the highest practical accuracy and effectiveness.
                             To discuss the equipment involved in sound recording, and how best to use it to achieve the above goal.
                             To assist on an individual basis any visitors to this blog, or my website at Digilogue Recordings , to record their music or narration to their expectations and satisfaction.
                             To promote the production and desirability of unprocessed true stereo recordings of performers, as they sound in their performance space.

Directions:        * Next post:  Hearing and sound machines.
                             * During August:  "Analogue" and "Digital" recording systems.  Playback.

Something to ponder:  In the last 30 years access to recorded music has become far easier for the average person, but recording and reproduction quality has suffered immensely, for commercial reasons:  the corporate "bottom line" is king.  Do you agree??

  1. Interesting post Rob, and as some-one who knows you well, I can affirm that you really do strive to reproduce the quality of the musical performance using appropriate quality equipment. You love what you do and strive to fulfill an outstanding result. Wishing you every success. Secret admirer x
