    I'm in the early stages of organising a Recording Show at Peter Maher's Middlewalk facility near Nenagh Co.Tipp.

    www.myspace.com/middlewalk

    We did one a couple of years ago at the Nutshed Studio which was very successful.

    I'm inviting representatives from all the companies we deal with to attend with their tackle for you to try, critisise, query, lust after, take the pizz out of, as you see fit.

    Like a Noah on his Audio Ark, I'm also trying to get 2 of everything to attend i.e. 2 Console Manufacturers, 2 Mic Makers, 2 Monitors Makers in search of some sort of balance of different views.

    I'm also inviting some well known Acoustic Designers and Engineers for you to quiz.

    I'm aiming for mid to late August.

    Any views or ideas ?

    Munro Acoustics are on board too.

    Chris Walls who designed U2's new Dublin room will be coming over.
    I'll be twisting his arm to do a presentation regarding acoustics in the home studio.

    cheers.

    Will do !


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 650 ✭✭✭Aridstarling


    Particularly interested in the Acoustics side of this, hopefully will be able to make it down.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,790 ✭✭✭PaulBrewer


    Yes, Chris Walls from Munro Acoustics is a great guy and Middlewalk is a terrific example of what's possible.

    It can also relate directly to the home situation , if only as a actual example of some of the things we discuss here.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,790 ✭✭✭PaulBrewer


    Manley are on board now, too.

    I'll probably be smack bang in the middle of building a new live room and renovating my control room so its pretty perfect timing.

    Might be worth delaying it a couple of weeks !

    Likewise planning on revamping the acoustic's in the contol room ........ Mr. Brewer just like a swiss watch this has come up!


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,790 ✭✭✭PaulBrewer


    Chris will be over in a couple of weeks for some site visits - PM me your details and lets see can we organise a meeting ?

    It will only be in the preliminary stage by then, some chalk lines and the odd piece of timber!

    No .... believe me ..... everyone is a long way off The Nutshed ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,790 ✭✭✭PaulBrewer


    Dirk Brauner from Brauner mics will be over too .

    I'm very pleased about this -

    Dirk has a presentation that he's prepared that he's been going around the German SEA schools for the last while.

    We'd spoken about him coming here before to do this and now seems the ideal time.

    It may interest some here, but Noah actually took seven of every clean animal and only two of every unclean animal...

    Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee seven and seven, the male and his female; and of the beasts that are not clean two, the male and his female


    Obviously this would suggest pro-audio manufacturers are pigs and reptiles and the like!!! Amen...

    I think Wolsey White Hard-Fi's producer will be attending too. Awaiting Confirmation.

    Of course - I won't have anything to actually sell on the day.
    You were at the SSL one in Westland so you know how the buzz goes.

    Heap 'o' Geeks in a room ....

    Might it not be an idea to try and maybe get some talent to record. No better way to showcase what something can or can't do than to try and achieve some results with it.
