Hello everyone!!!
As this is one of my favourite subjects concerning recordings I am tempted to make post about it.
In a metaphysical sense, the hemispheres of our left and right brainlobes collect and compute different kind of information both of them specializing into their own purpose. The feeling and the rational.
Now back in the good old days of the sixties, people were feeling and expressing the feelings of the age which were then closely turned into perceived feelings through music and the flow of music.
Of course the bestest of those engineers knew what they were doing by panning rhytmical and melodical instruments differently according to the feeling of the music. It was called stereo. And there were several very good albums made in stereo.
I remember some big-shot engineer saying in some magazine that he doesn't like the way music is nowadays mixed as so called 'big-mono' instead of stereo. I believe he was talking about the modern recordings lacking of stereo-music, but only having a stereo-field, which he then referred as being 'big-mono'
As I'm not gonna make this an essay, there are few words to consider. Free - Flow - Feeling.
How they are incorporated into any musicians, producers and engineers work is a different matter, I guess it's called dialogue.
Does this make any sense??
