Abstract:
Creative Engineering—The Studio as an Instrument

Engineers of a particularly creative breed, these multi-faceted audio gurus reflect a singular studio fluency that has inspired and produced some of today’s most sonically expressive, adventurous, and influential recordings. Typically recording, mixing and co-producing entire albums, these craftsman often collaborate with artists whose distinct POVs come across not only in the songwriting and playing, but also in the sound of their records. Though they may program, play and/or produce on their projects, these panelists are engineers first, with the skill set to truly play the studio as an instrument. Participants will discuss the creative recording and mixing techniques they’ve developed, playing samples of their work to illustrate some of the most successful collaborations.
