Meeting Topic: Independent Audio Presentation
Moderator Name: Cameron Smith; president of NESCOM AES chapter
Speaker Name: Fraser Jones; President of Independent Audio, Dennis Gaines; Sales Rep. Independent Audio
Meeting Location: Bangor, ME, USA
Fraser Jones talked about the Coles and the Pearl microphones that he sells. They are both high end microphones. The Coles 4038 has been the same for the last 50 years. The Pearl mics are rectangular capture microphones so they don't have any resonance. Dennis introduced the Pyramix DAW and the Ramses control surface. Pyramix can record and process extremely high quality audio, but the most impressive thing about it, is that you can master straight to a Red Book cd or a SACD (unlike Pro Tools where you have to bounce to disk, and then use another program to create a master).
