THAT DISNEY GLAMPLE IS HASHED : 11 NEW AUDIO TERMS FOR 2021
"Mojo." "Warmth." "Punchy." "Forward." Few professions trade in the glut of buzzwords, idioms and analogies quite like audio production. These pieces of hazy phraseology serve not only to describe the seemingly indescribable, but force others to nod along knowingly, lest you discover they have no idea what the hell you're talking about.
But this year, EverythingRecording is turning the tables. There's no better buzzword than the one you create yourself and then unleash upon...
A Fireside Chat With Howard Benson and Chris Lord-Alge
Sure, we can go on all day about STLTones Tonality. In fact, we just did. But we figured, wouldn’t it be better to talk to the engineering ears and mixing minds behind the sounds? Chris Lord-Alge and Howard Benson took some time to sit down with us and give their take.
Just give us a little background on how Tonality started?
HOWARD: Chris has been in the plug-in business a very long time, and I...
MY WAVEFORMS ARE WEAPONS: THE AUDIOSCAPE D-COMP
"Oh my God, not another one." - Mrs. B Church
That's the thing about leaving the big studios and setting up shop in a converted NYC bedroom, I guess. Not that my wife could tell you what any of my gear is or what it does in the context of producing music. Or that she cares, despite my occasional excited demonstrations. But splurge for so much as a new set of fancy 500 series...
Five 500 Series Modules For Under $500
CHAMPAGNE TASTE AT A SPARKLING WINE PRICE.
What is it about the 500 series format that makes it so popular? I guess for some, it's building modular setups that cater exactly to what they want to record. For others, it's being able to easily switch out modules for different applications. But underneath it all, being able to have "a bit of this and a bit of that" all in one rack is pretty damn...

So you’ve notched a few years under your belt as an audio engineer...
You’ve been recording for friends, acquaintances and friends-of-acquaintances.They’re all happy with the results, one even referred you to some friends.

Sam Thomas – The Making of the Kontakt/NKS The Sound of Love Lost Virtual Instrument
Instead of doing a review for this post, I decided that the Virtual Instrument "The Sound of Love Lost" was unique enough on its own to warrant an article on the making of. Also, instead of me trying to describe it, why not let the creator himself explain. Today we have Sam Thomas showcasing how he made this very innovative and fresh-sounding Kontakt/NKS Virtual Instrument.
What on Earth is "The Sound" of Love Lost?

Congrats to Jeff Hedback for the Cover of Mix Magazine
While Jeff has been in nine other issues of Mix Magazine (and every single "Class of" since 2013), one of Jeff's TWO "Class of" designs finally (and deservedly) made the cover. Yes, you heard me right. Jeff has TWO designs in this year's "Class of" features. The article can be found HERE.
