Haven’t been listening to the radio much lately and completely forgot how much I loved this show. Great story telling and sound design. Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich are fantastic hosts. Really happy that I happened to turn on the radio this afternoon.
The episode I heard today was The Voice in Your Head – A Tribute to Joe Frank.
Had a great time playing at the Art Boutiki’s open mic last night. For those that have never been there, I think it’s one of the best sounding rooms in the area and has a great vibe about it. The open mic happens once a month and you can find the schedule here.
Really enjoyed the Audio Foundations: EQ and Filters course on Lynda.com. Brian Lee White is a great instructor and did a fantastic job. Highly recommended if you have ever wanted to understand how EQ can affect your tracks/mixes.
One idea he brought up that I’m looking forward to trying out in particular is to use two different types of EQ on a track. A transparent one for corrections (cutting) and a vintage styled one for added color (boosting).
