AES/APRS/DV247 Event: Talkback-Pro 2—Lead Me Down the Signal Path

Abstract:
"All you need is a great mic and a decent pre-amp and you can expect your home recordings to match any studio." A familiar claim but a pretty glib observation, especially when there are so many "affordable" options and such a wide diversity of "subjective" opinions.
“Listen, position, and condition” is the mantra of an engineer trying to capture a live sound accurately. How does each skill impact on the others? Can the flaws in a cheap microphone be rectified by cunning signal manipulation or does the notion of "less is more" apply to signal path?
A group of key experts from academics to manufacturers discuss the fundamentals of audio capture and refinement.
