Where is Les Paul? He was first to do multitracking, all of those guys owe him...
Your neighbors called. They like your music.
Ironically, i immediately noticed the speaker cab in this pic, it's a Geejay. And, those wrought iron legs it's standing on, i have some of those around here somewhere. The irony is that i didn't expect to see anything recognizable from that vintage.
Also, my generation wonders where Bob Ludwig's mention is...................
Less Paul was also credited for the echo chamber at Capitol Records that utilizes an Altec A-7 with a microphone.
EMT plates reverb by Wilhelm Franz .
I have to mention Neumann and RCA and those 2 particular mics.
M250 and KU 3a
................................
I thought it was about engineers? so wouldn't it be about people from those companies not the mics?

Opinion is only as valid as its verifiable supporting evidence.
John Eargle 1931-2007 (John M. Eargle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
Multiple Grammy and Oscar-winning recording engineer, mostly for Delos, musician and an actual Electrical Engineer (fancy that). Past president and fellow of the Audio Engineering Society.
Part of the teams at JBL that modernised both control room monitors and Cinema sound in the early 1980s (the latter for which he was awarded a Technical Oscar in 2001). Senior Director of Product Development and Application for JBL Professional.
Author of the authoritative microphone reference (The Microphone Book, Focal Press 2001). I use this superb text in my class.
His recording of Dvorak's Requiem (Macal and NJ Symphony) is one of my favourites. His work served a greater educational purpose as it effectively endeavoured to quantify the `voodoo' sadly inherent in the audio recording business, within the limits of contemporary knowledge of psychoacoustics.
Yes, he worked for JBL and it was his contributions that helped displace Altec from professional recording and cinema. However, he was affiliated with Altec early in his career.

This is hard to find but I`ll get it cause the RCA was made for Hollywood and the M250 has similar sound characteristic. Very high sensitivity ideal for orchestra recording.THey replace the DECCA mics in the DECCA tree.Originally Posted by Old Guy
