Mallette Posted May 11, 2007 Author Share Posted May 11, 2007 Erik: Not sure to what you are referring. Nothing "innovative," unless you mean application of known principles rarely observed like minimum path from source to disk, including two mikes only and in the case of the "Ipod optimized" (which threw me off at first given my aversion to all things mp3) the use of acoustic isolation of omni's to produce a "binaural for stereo" separation similar to my "SoundCube" concept. Also no mixers or processors. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Travis In Austin Posted May 11, 2007 Moderators Share Posted May 11, 2007 Travis: You're either not looking or busy defending a really tough one. See "DWILAWYER: AWWMYGAWD" further down... Dave Sorry about that, yes I have been busy, big case, can't sleep. Last night went to bed at 11, could not sleep, up at 3 because I was tired of laying in bed wide awake, worked more on case, at least it is Friday. I will look below.

oscarsear Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 A follow up on my listening to "Midnight in The Grand Court". ...........this morning the Mrs. asked me what happened in the family room. I said, "I don't know is there some sort of problem". Seems that a few of the decorative knick knacks sitting on the floating shelves had been knocked over. One, a large ceramic pot had slipped precariously to the edge when its tripod stand lost footing for one leg. We had no earthquakes. The family room is where the Khorns are. The shelves where the incidents occurred were closest to the left channel. The bass on track 4 (as I recall) is a gut rumbling experience. Perhaps the CD needs to come with a user warning.

Mallette Posted May 12, 2007 Author Share Posted May 12, 2007 My wife could tell you about that. We've learned to be careful about placement of breakables in or near the music room given my propensity fo 32' organ pipes, not mention Midnight Oil at 106db.

Mallette Posted May 12, 2007 Author Share Posted May 12, 2007 Mark: Yum. That Michael Murray is a fine recording (even though pretty old by digital standards-I acquired my copy in Singapore in the 80's), and perhaps the best performance I've ever heard of the Franck B minor chorale. It's the one I always reference as "quiet base" with it's 32' sustain with swell shutters closed. I hope it grows on you. Wasn't my cup of tea at first but the more I listened to it the more I was drawn to return. Many other fine things there as well. I look forward to your opinion.
