DESCRIPTION:
Alan Parsons interviews tenacious recording engineer and producer Sylvia Massy for Art & Science of Sound Recording. Discover the inspiration and perspiration that goes on during vocal recording sessions, Sylvia's unorthodox methods for getting the perfect performance out of an artist, analog recording equipment, and the nitty gritty technical choices she makes for studio microphone setups. Her unique microphone phasing techniques have partly distinguished her productions far above the rest, including work with Tool, System of a Down, Tom Petty, and Sublime With Rome. Listen closely for anecdotes about producer Rick Rubin and Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan.
