Demystifying Acoustics with Jeff Hedback – Part 3
This is Part 3 of a 4-part series. To start from the beginning, visit Part 1.
When we left off in Part 2, we built the space, determined the mix position, and measured the room for proper treatment. We also ended with a bit of a cliffhanger on how we were going to treat the room. We had an initial plan but circled back due to a few factors. In part 3, we look...
PREAMPS: A NEOPHYTE’S GUIDE
Today, I'd like to introduce our newest contributor to Everything Recording. I was browsing the Reddit r/AudioEngineering sub and saw an incredible post by B. Church. He posted a very concise writeup on something we all get a little too caught up in - Preamps. While this website deals in announcing the latest and greatest new piece of gear, sometimes we all need to recenter our perspective. I reached out to B. Church and...
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...

COMPRESSORS, COMPRESSORS EVERYWHERE
It's weird, we hadn't reviewed a hardware compressor in a while and then, seemingly out of nowhere, a month doesn't go by where I'm not wiring up a new box of chips, bulbs, and wires to fawn over. You'd think I'd be...

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?

In Part 1, we discussed the misleading paths that every engineer initially faces when the mix doesn’t translate. We also brought in an important ally – Jeff Hedback, owner of HD Acoustics.

With the introductions out of the way, let’s get to the good stuff.
