Hughes Aircraft

Greetings,


Just curious if you've stumbled onto a signal processing plug-in that you enjoy which has some of the goodness of the AK-100 SRS?


best,


Jeff

Your Next Album

Dearest Tchad!


I was just listening to your interview on Pensado's Place and you had expressed how much you love mixing albums but 99% of what you do now is singles or one offs. Hearing you say that gave me the crazy thought of googling your email and it led me here to this lovely little chat board you have. I'm currently writing/recording my debut album in the woods of Wisconsin and I've wanted you to be the one to mix it from day one. I considered having my management/label reach out to you, but I'm such a big fan I thought I'd do it personally. Forgive me if this is the worst way to reach out but you seem like the kind of guy who would appreciate the ambition. Anyway, you're the man and thanks for making so many of my favorite albums sound magical.


Best,


P

Binaural Headset

Howdy,

I've been using an AMBEO headset (collaboration between Sennheiser and Apogee) with my iPhone via lightning for several years - which is pretty cool. Great for immediate off the cuf recording with good quality. Wondering what other binaural low-profile recording devices you may like and have played with? Thanks much.

In the late 1970s I made my own portable binau kit with a butchered Sony Walkman h/p frame and 2 Sony ECM 50’s (omni). They rested in my ears perfectly.I still use them sometimes in the studio. The Ambeo’s are now my current travel kit. The mics sound amazing to me. (I make sure to keep the earbuds muted.)

Using outboard gear for parallel processing inside DAW

Hey, Tchad/everyone! When you were using the SRS and sending stuff through it did you ever have latency issues? If not, do you have any tips how to manage latency/delay compensation. I'm trying to use some compressors for parallel processing but it's a bit phasey cuz of the latency.

Korneff SRS WOW Machine

Hi Tchad!


Have you had a chance to try this plugin? I was wondering if it might do the Hughes SRS thing for you.

Yep. It's a very cool plugin but nothing like the SRS.

2 Questions.

Good day Sir. I have been searching for a copy of the Iron Mountain cave recordings, alas to no avail. Is it possible to purchase a CD-R copy.

Also, do you know what Full Mongrel means in Australia

David.

Hi Tchad !

I hope everything is fine for you.

I wonder if you use the function HEAT from avid .. I know you use a lot if tape emulation so i'm asking if you use "Heat" ..


Take Care ! & Happy New year ;)

PS : As you know you like photography too, do you know a japan photographer named Yasuhiro Ogawa ? Discover his work in a gallery in Paris, amazing work ..

Thank you so much for responding! I'll try the psp saturator. I have psp vintage warmer Ive tried on there. Sean Everett has a similar mix bus process to you (and he copied your satin presets) mixing into a cloud of saturation.

Thank you so much! huge fan!

I would love to see a black keys song on mix with the masters something off brothers would be awesome! just throwing that out there.
