Re: Favorite Quotes From The Industry

The dude is full of great knowledge. From the same article I also really like this one because it relates to the mixing and design process.

Sleep Spindles - The Brain's Natural Sound Gate

Lately I've been more perceptive of sounds when I wake up and fall back asleep in the mornings. I sleep with a fan on for ambient noise almost every night and this is the prominent sound I tend hear. What I have been noticing more over the last year has really intrigued me and I just now started to ...

Portable Worldizing and Impulse Response Capturing Rigs

Hey guys and gals, I'm going to be honest that I haven't done much research about "worldizing" rigs but I thought it would make a neat discussion topic. Has anyone made a dedicated rig?
