Hi Chris - I won't respond as detailed here, since there are complaints of the thread being hijacked, for which I apologize. All I will say is I cannot agree that miking is better now than it used to be - the more mikes they add, the less it sounds how it actually sounded, and the more the mix plays into it. These recordings where everyone in the orchestra has their own mike usually come out sounding nothing like the real thing - the blend is simply not correct. It creates many more problems than it solves - the most egregious thing being that the mikes are simply placed far too close to the instruments. There is also the issue that modern day digital recordings still routinely cut out all frequencies supposedly out of the range of human hearing, which many, including myself, feel has a detrimental effect on the sound. But this is already longer than I intended it to be - perhaps we can continue this conversation in another place - feel free to email me through the system here, if that's possible. Supposedly audigon has got rid of that feature, I don't know about this site.

Looks as if I can't contact you directly from here, but I think my e-mail link here will work - other inmates have contacted me directly, so I think the link to my e-mail account should still work.
Hi Chris - it wouldn't let me contact you directly, no. It suggested I post my email, but I do not want to do that, as retaining anonymity here allows me to be much more free in posts, especially here on the music forum, to be able to comment on recordings and orchestras, etc., without fear of offending colleagues. I hope you understand. If you are willing to post yours in response here, I will email you privately.
Sure - no problem. Here it is:

Thanks, I'll be in touch!
