“STA Presentation”
- Go through speakers and pick a couple to sample
- What I’m doing
Every Friday afternoon a collective of intellectuals, students, and sherry lovers gather to hear prominent British speakers or speakers talking about prominent British figures. The Harry Ransom Center provides an intimate setting blah blah..
Dr Richard Lewis has requested that each speaker be archived on the Dept of British Studies’ website. In order to do this we set up a portable recording console equiped with equalizers, compressors, and digital recording devices. We use wireless mikes, making it comfortable for the speakers. After recording the speech, I then take it back to the STA LAB and fiddle faddle with it…
Many thanks to Mike the Audio guy and Sean the assistant for teaching me the ends and out of pro-tools…
- Things I learned
Before this assignment, I had very little pro-tools experience, and even less field recording experience..
