I just posted some photos from my most recent recording
project at
http://forum.stereophile.com/photopo...ry.php/cat/508
Even if there is no way for people to audition your
recordings for themselves, Mr. Krueger, perhaps you
could share some photos of your endeavors?


To the best of my knowledge, no photos of them were
taken.


So, to sum up, Mr. Krueger:


1) you claim to be a
"professional" recording engineer, yet the recordings you
are purported to have made cannot be auditioned by
anyone, let alone purchased or downloaded;


Wrong, my *professional* recordings, that is the ones I make for pay, are
available to a select group of people. The musical works I record are
copyrighted, but on these occasions they are not licensed distribution to
or performance for the general public. The performances are private, and
again only a select group of people are allowed to attend.

2) no photographs of the purported sessions were taken.


Who would take the pictures, and why? The performers are not professional
performers. Flash photography is specifically forbidden during the sessions.

Is it not possible, Mr.
krueger, to apply the same standards of proof that you
demand of others on this newsgroup, that you haven't
actually made any recordings, that your recording "career"
has yet to start? :-)


You've got me confused with someone who cares what you think, John.

Besides, what's to see - a bunch of microphones, stands,
music stands, and pretty ordinary-looking people.


Yet you have criticized the sounds of others' recordings
based entirely on your looking at photographs.


Wrong again John, I also based my opinion on statements made by the
recordist.

Perhaps
you could benefit from some informed criticisms of your
purported techniques, Mr. Krueger?


Again John , you've got me confused with someone who cares what you think

But without any
photographic or audio evidence, other recording engineers
shall just have to take your word that you make recordings
at all :-)


Believe what you will, John. I'm not here to try to impress anybody of
anything in particular.
