Scott Putnam & Tom Lubin 01/12/12 10:22 AM,A live echo chamber can be a considerable asset for any recording studio, that is providing that it is a good one. That’s the problem — how do you construct a good echo chamber? When someone builds a chamber, they hope it will turn out great and pray it won’t turn out absolutely dreadful and good for nothing but storing echo plates. The truth is there are a number of complex variables which will make each chamber unique. These factors… View this story

Tim Vear 12/12/11 03:30 PM,An important consideration in microphone use is acoustic interference, which can occur whenever delayed versions of the same sound are mixed together, acoustically or electrically. With mics, this may happen in several ways: mics of reverse polarity picking up the same sound, multiple mics picking up the same sound from different distances, a single mic picking up multiple reflections of the same sound, or any combination of these. The results are similar in each case, and include audible peaks and… View this story

Jim Cunningham 11/10/11 07:32 AM, 0 CommentsArtificial reverberation, or echo as it is often called, is one of the most useful effects available to the recording engineer. Recently there has been an explosion of reverb devices available in the marketplace, and to compete for your dollars, they all must claim to be the best if not the ultimate machine of all time. Actually, each has strong and weak points, so the purpose of this article will be to investigate the four basic types and see how… View this story

Paul D. Lehrman 04/01/11 10:20 AM, 0 Comments“The most important piece of equipment in a recording studio is the control room,” says Phil Greene, chief engineer and part-owner of Normandy Sound, located in Warren, Rhode Island. It’s that kind of thinking that led Normandy, one of the first 24-track studios in the region, to become the first facility in the six states to feature a certified Live-End/Dead-End control room. Since the new room opened last October, business has been good, but that’s not necessarily due to the… View this story

Dale Alexander 02/07/11 07:01 PM, 0 CommentsThe question that is at the top of the list when we talk to pastors and music ministers: Why can’t we hear the choir? For a church with an active choir ministry this can be one of the most volatile challenges they have to deal with. The solution to the problem is usually not a simple one. In many evangelical churches, the choir is still an extremely important element of the worship service although the musical styles have evolved from… View this story

Tim Vear 08/06/10 06:18 AM, 0 CommentsSound Waves Sound moves through the air like waves in water. Sound waves consist of pressure variations traveling through the air. When the sound wave travels, it compresses air molecules together at one point. This is called the high pressure zone or positive component(+). After the compression, an expansion of molecules occurs. This is the low pressure zone or negative component(-). This process continues along the path of the sound wave until its energy becomes too weak to hear. The… View this story
