Sonic Implants Symphonic String Collection netStudio Notes Meet Steve Pearce: netStudio across the Atlantic Steve Pearce, a Mix netStudio regular, resides in South Staffordshire, UK. Steve is probably netStudio's most active user -- he initiates several public sessions every week, and can always be found contributing tracks to others. As a player and producer, Steve has rung up an impressive list of credits, from Yes's Jon Anderson to '70s heartthrob David Cassidy. He's recently been working with Moody Blues founding bassist Clint Warwick, with players contributing tracks from all over the world via Rocket Networks and Mix netStudio. Steve is currently finishing up his first CD. Many of the tunes on the disk are the result of collaborations over Rocket Networks using netStudio. "The beauty of Rocket Network is that there is no other place in the world that a song can assemble such a wealth of world class musicians", he says, "Whatever style you are or however insignificant you think your ideas maybe, the guys are here to help you develop it to whatever level you desire, in whatever style you desire." He goes on to say, "Ultimately, Rocket is really a way of life that you have to experience firsthand. A saying we have here is 'You're never alone with Rocket'". Steve's music can be heard at www.liveartists.com. Listen to netStudio!

Bargain Bin Retailers, manufacturers: Contact sbenzuly@primediabusiness.com to suggest an item for future "Bargain Bin" listings. Recording Tip from George Petersen, Mix's editorial director Weird Ribbon Mic Tricks A ribbon mic in front of a kick drum is a recipe for disaster, as the drum's enormous air pressure can instantly distort/destroy the mic's sensitive ribbon. However, you can often get a huge -- yet safe -- kick sound by laying a ribbon mic on a pillow inside the drum, with the mic's element pointing straight up toward the ceiling so that the air flows across (and not into) the mic. For guitar overdubs, try putting a ribbon (or other figure-8 mic) between two 4x12 cabinets that face each other. As the back side of a figure-8 mic is out of phase with the front, wire one of the 4x12s out of phase, experiment a bit with mic-to-cabinet distances, and you've got a massive guitar sound like no other! |
