Actually, people have used car stereo speakers to mix music, believe it or
not!!


Back in the old days, some studios had low-power FM or AM transmitters to send mixes
into your nearby car radio as a check. Or, you ran off a cassette (later a CD) and
took it out to the car for a listen. (Back in the DAT days, a mixer friend of mine
had a DAT deck in his car for mix checks.)

Moving into the 21st Century, the Lurssen mastering product offers a method of using
their i-pad controller for their mastering app. Sit in the car and tweak the master,
real time. No need to take notes, go back to the studio, and do the whole thing
all over again. Just tweak it right then and there.

In some hands, this could create a first-class mess. In other hands, this could be a
convenient tool.
