So, first things first… I learned something very important yesterday. I need to hit the woodshed playing chromatic scales. I suck. ☺

OK… beyond that, here are the files and a few notes from the recording workshop yesterday. For those who are reading this online and who were not there, I did a short presentation in Delaware for the students at Tony’s weeklong workshop. The focus of my session was recording the vibes and related issues. We discussed a bunch of things, one of which was mic choices. These are the audio files we created.

Adding to the last lesson's lydian idea. Now integrating it in the context of a V-1 cadence.

So, tomorrow AM I will be talking about recording the vibes at the workshop in Delaware. Here are some links to some good tech specs for some of the mics we will be using in the workshop. There are also some good links to sites about mic patterns and recording.
