Many of you will know the name Bobby Owsinski from the several recording and production books he has authored over the years. His texts are common resources at recording schools. I’ve used some of his writing in my own production courses, at the high-school level.
Not surprisingly Owsinski, has a blog, well worth reading regularly:

I was doing a mini-tour of the northeast last week with a friend and singer-songwriter, and NYC’s Joe’s Pub was a particularly memorable gig: Great sound, great staff, wonderful room. And the backstage and “green room” areas rocked, as well.
Oh, and this post inaugurates a new series on cool venues. Enjoy…

A very cool video showing how one of my favorite microphones, the Royer R-121, is made. Makes me understand why they aren’t inexpensive. Enjoy.
