Joe Wisler 02/03/11 08:50 AM, 0 Comments“You know, I’ve been doing sound here at my church for about two years now, and there are a couple of things that aren’t quite clear to me. First, where’s the bass and treble control? And, what are these knobs for - the ones on the console labeled high, mid and low?” I’ve heard questions like this posed more than once by people who do sound at their churches. And they’re great questions. Remember - we’re all in this together!… View this story

Bobby Owsinski 01/25/11 10:55 AM, 0 CommentsThis article is provided by Bobby Owsinski. If you took a survey of music software apps and hardware, I bet that the majority would have a High-Pass Filter on them. Regardless of whether its a microphone, microphone preamp, mixer or console, EQ or DAW app, there’s a good chance that a high-pass filter will be incorporated somewhere. Yet, why is it so overlooked? The high-pass filter is one of the mixing engineer’s unsung tools. Here’s why: • The low… View this story

PSW Staff 01/11/11 08:45 AM, 0 CommentsA-Designs Audio has announced the availability of a new two-channel rack-mounted version known as the EM-EQ2. Intended for tracking, mixing and even mastering applications, the EM-EQ2 is a dual-mono equalizer housed in a rugged, all-metal 2U chassis. Sonically modeled after the classic Pultec EQP-1A sound, the EM-EQ2 utilizes the same discrete Class AB amplifier found in A-Designs’ popular solid-state EM-PEQ and Pacifica mic pres, putting a slightly unique twist on the classic filter design. The EM-EQ2 faithfully preserves the EQ… View this story

Monday, January 03, 2011Bobby Owsinski 01/03/11 09:45 AM, 0 CommentsThis article is provided by Bobby Owsinski. When I wrote The Mixing Engineer’s Handbook, I was lucky enough to interview the Godfather of recording engineers, Bruce Swedien. During our interview, Bruce talked more about the philosophy of mixing rather than the nuts and bolts. Here’s an excerpt from that interview, where he talks about hearing in “colors.” Is your approach to mixing each song generally the same? I’ll take that a step further and I’ll say it’s never the… View this story

Bobby Owsinski 12/28/10 02:00 PM, 0 CommentsThis article is provided by Bobby Owsinski. Technical preparation is the most mundane of all the tasks. So mundane, in fact, that many A-listers either hire someone or have their assistant do all of this work. That being said, the technical prep may be the most important time you spend on some projects, because it’s where you tighten up the individual performances and take them to new level. 1) Make A Copy Of The Session The first thing is… View this story

Bobby Owsinski 12/22/10 12:39 PM, 0 CommentsThis article is provided by Bobby Owsinski. I’ve been asked by a few people how I would go about getting a bass sound, since I’ve mentioned before that I’d approach things differently. Actually, the sound of the bass isn’t as important as the relationship it has with the kick and snare drums, since they all reinforce one another if blended correctly. Here’s my approach, assuming that both the bass and the drums are recorded well and sound pretty good… View this story
