We have had very positive feedback from all who attended the previous collaboration, from the musicians at the original event, and more recently from the recipients of the final master CD.
A concern over the last Event was that it might have been a little too technology focused for some guests, so the recordings were kept short and split into separate morning and afternoon sessions. However, during the event, it became apparent that most would have liked a deeper insight into the recording process itself, with more time to ask questions. This next Musical Event with Crescent Records will follow a similar format of recording a live event, mixing, and mastering this to a CDR for playback on an audio system in the same recording space. This time each session will run over a whole day. There will be more time for questions with Damon along with more time to listen and appraise the audio system with other recorded music.
We are again using the same jazz trio led by Pete Billington on piano, with the addition of Fleur Stephenson on vocals. We had very positive feedback on the musicianship of the trio at the last Event, and we are sure the addition of a singer will be of extra interest.
We are limited by the number of people that we can fit around the mixing desk to observe Damon work, but we are now able to offer 20 places for each of the two days. Light refreshments will be provided. Sessions run from 10 am to 5 pm, places can be booked now for Saturday 24 June and Sunday 25 June.
Each day’s session will cost £50 per person and will include:
Both days booking now via Eventbrite.
The event is at Crescent Records, 16 Belmont Crescent, Swindon, Wiltshire SN1 4EY
Limited parking at Crescent Records, plus free local on street parking.
Crescent Records have already adopted some GutWire Cables power cords and Ground Cables which are in permanent use in their recording and mixing studio. Selected use of HRS Nimbus Assemblies has significantly reduced noise within their recording and mixing electronics. Damon Sawyer has found that all these components have made a significant improvement to sound of his recordings and influences the way he mixes them prior to mastering.
