The Krooborg invites a referendum on his ****fulness. Arny's agnostic on this point don't forget ! Short memory plaguing you again, Graham? Have you changed your position ? On what? Just how *DIM* are you actually Arny ? Just answer the question, or quit the topic. Poopie's question: "Have you changed your position ?" Kroo****'s question: "On what?" Poopie has moved that Krooger be censured for being extraordinarily dim. Is there a second? -- Krooscience: The antidote to education, experience, and excellence. |

The idea that Hollywood is the center of the US is a fiction that Hollywood movies tend to perpetuate in the minds of naive persons. |

Fella seems to have no idea how many eqs his favorite music goes through while it is being produced. For example, there is essentially no such thing as a recording console that doesn't have eq on its channel strips. If you think that all those eq knobs are centered and all bypassable eq is bypassed, you're dreaming. Mastering is all about eq and compression. Every SR system worth its salt has relatively massive amounts of eq in the signal chain. Powered speakers are the rage for professional audio and rising in popularity for consumers. Guess what - just about every one of them has electronic eq built into it, even the high end ones. Furthermore, mics are routinely chosen because of their frequency response, which means that people use them like they were equalizers. Don't interpret that to mean that an electronic eq is perfectly interchangable with a mic with a desired non-flat frequency response characteristic, but they are similar concepts. It isn't even that so much. He advocated individually adjusting the equaliser with each CD I thought badly recorded. Been there, done that. Can you imagine the kind of interminable fiddling that would entail? Your alternative Paul was as I recall, to change one or more components in your system. How much fiddling would that involve? If I have a CD whose balance really bugs me, I rip it, remaster it and burn a new CD, and play that. BTW, that is the way that I verified that some highly-recommended audiophile labels produce CDs with gross clipping. Of course its hard to fix gross screw-ups like massive clipping with eq. However, one can also undo some compression if its not too gross. I've found it difficult enough trying to adjust my equaliser by ear whilst recording, which is a once and only thing, let alone doing it individually for every other CD. Plan B: just live with it. I do a lot of that. I'm sure everybody does. But, I have many eq options, many due to the fact that I do a lot of work in the digital domain. Nobody learns how to do eq over night, it takes some guts and patience to learn how to do it, and nobody should judge eq by a 10 band consumer grade equalizer. IME, there's nothing like doing recording and SR to get a person really tuned into the power of good eq. I'm not sure that a lot of music listeners will ever go there and be comfortable and productive. |

Arny, here is a partial list of TV and movie companies that record exclusively in L.A. Disney (both TV and MP) MGM/UA Warner (all companies, TV and MP) NBC (all national productions) CBS (all national productions) ABC (all national productions) Note: CBS, NBC, and ABC recording dates include all sitcoms, soaps, gingles, national news underscoring. For example, the new CBS Evening News music was recently recorded in L.A. My friend Michael Nowak, first call violist in the L.A. studios played the date.) Orion Fox (both TV and MP, i.e. 20th Century Fox, etc.) Amblin Paramount TV Paramount Pictures Columbia Pictures Universal TriStar The studios are in L.A. The sound stages are in L.A. The production companies are based in L.A. The most important contractor (Sandy De Crescent) is in L.A. Feel free to look up her credits. ALL of the busiest TV and film players live in L.A. Look up Carol Kaye, for example. Why is this all true? The VAST majority of stuff is recorded in Hollywood. The source for all of the above is personal experience/common industry knowledge. It is verifiable by looking at the AFM newsletter, available in large libraries. The idea that Hollywood is the center of the US is a fiction that Hollywood movies tend to perpetuate in the minds of naive persons. Of course, no one here has claimed anything like this, so your statement is another straw man. |

I listen to quite a bit of film music. Yeah? Any favourite scores, composers? Williams (an amazing composer really), Morricone, Korngold, Hermann, Goldsmith, even some Elfman. No Rozsa? If you want interesting and compelling synth-based music, all one has to do is go to Tom Tykwer (Run Lola Run, The Princess and the Warrior, etc.). He's been quite influential, as can be seen by the new trend of using pulsing, urgent "techno" in such films as the Bourne series. Whether this is a good or bad thing depends on your perspective, I suppose. Now, if you want "garage-band-shoegazing-VU-influenced" film music, try Hal Hartley composing and playing under his nom-de-plume "Ned Rifle". It's perfect for his deadpan, stylized dialogue and odd situational plot lines. |

message In article , "Arny Krueger" wrote: Jenn's claim that 95% of all sound tracks are done in Hollywood would be an interesting claim, if she could prove it or even support it with some authoritative relevant evidence beside her personal say-so. There's no doubt in my mind that Hollywood has great depth of staffing in terms of musical artists. For example, that's why Berry Gordy moved Motown out of Detroit and to LA. But NYC isn't a podunk berg like Detroit, and neither is Chicago. Believe it or not, some sound track music actually gets made in the Detroit area. Ever hear of the industrial training film market? Of course its not on film any more, but it still has soundtracks. Detroit might even get one or two of the 5 points that Jenn is willing to grant to the whole rest of the US. 95% seems more than a little extreme, considering that there are places like NYC, Chicago, Memphis, etc. Of course Graham, this all probably seems pretty abstract to you, sitting there in the UK. Arny, here is a partial list of TV and movie companies that record exclusively in L.A. Jenn, you seriously don't think I know all this stuff? If I didn't, all or most of it is availble on any number of web sites. snip well-known facts that shed no numerical light on Jenn's claim |
