Composing Audiovisually Perspectives on audiovisual practices and relationships

Composing Audiovisually Perspectives on audiovisual practices and relationships

What does the Coen Brothers’ Barton Fink have in common with Norman McLaren’s Synchromy? Or with audiovisual sculpture? Or contemporary music video? Composing Audiovisually interrogates how the relationship between the audiovisual media in these works and our interaction with them might allow us to develop mechanisms for talking about and understanding our experience of audiovisual media across a broad range of modes. Presenting close readings of audiovisual artefacts conversations with artists consideration of contemporary pedagogy and a detailed conceptual and theoretical framework that considers the nature of contemporary audiovisual experience this book attempts to address gaps in our discourse on audiovisual modes and offer possible starting points for future genuinely transdisciplinary thinking in the field. | Composing Audiovisually Perspectives on audiovisual practices and relationships

Recording Classical Music

Recording Classical Music

Recording Classical Music presents the fundamental principles of digitally recording and editing acoustic music in ambient spaces focusing on stereo microphone techniques that will help musicians understand how to translate live environments into recorded sound. The book covers theory and the technical aspects of recording from sound source to delivery: the nature of soundwaves and their behavior in rooms microphone types and the techniques of recording in stereo proximity and phase file types tracking and critical listening loudness meters and the post-production processes of EQ control of dynamic range (compressors limiters dynamic EQ de-essers) and reverberation (both digital reflection simulation and convolution) with some discussion of commercially available digital plugins. The final part of the book applies this knowledge to common recording situations showcasing not only strategies for recording soloists and small ensembles along with case studies of several recordings but also studio techniques that can enhance or replace the capture of performances in ambient spaces such as close miking and the addition of artificial reverberation. Recording Classical Music provides the tools necessary for anyone interested in classical music production to track mix and deliver audio recordings themselves or to supervise the work of others.
