Belated Thanks to Cookie and Jason McGuire

jason-mc.jpgA couple of weeks ago, we had a very successful event at the studio of Blue Coast Records in Belmont.

I think that each of us came away with a deeper understanding of the challenges and tradeoffs that recording engineers face in bringing the live event into our lives.

Our Chief Instructor was Cookie Marenco, a primo engineer and “emerging audiophile.” Assisting her was Jason McGuire, flemenco guitarist par excellence.

If you think that the goal of your playback system is “to reproduce the live event,” I guarantee that the “Blue Coast Sessions” would have give you perspective on the impossibility of that goal. Reproducing “what’s on the media” is a more reasonable standard.

So again our thanks to Cookie and Jason M – bravo!

As “Friends of BAAS,” I have added a link to each of their sites to our home page.

Note: Both sites have numerous music tracks and/or videos.
