Cheep (rim shot) Speaker Stands

July 17, 2012 Dave

My new space, “The Incubator” finally gave me the room and opportunity to PROPERLY have two sets of monitor speakers for mixing. I had built my original monitor speaker stands back 10 years ago, and they’ve served me quite well throug...

Taming the Clucks – Part II

July 15, 2012 Dave

I know that these posts are slow and infrequent – appologies for that, but a LOT of different things have happened in life, work and everything lately. The IHR podcast has suffered unfortunately, but will definitely be propped up in the weeks to ...

Taming the Clucks in the Incubator

June 06, 2012 Dave

I’ve neglected updating my blog AND getting IHR 101 out. Life has taken over my … well, life lately and between dealing with work, family and building out the Incubator, I haven’t had much time to pay attention to tossing up a post. N...

Incubator Improvements

May 08, 2012 Dave

I’ve been a little lax in updates on the Incubator. A LOT has gone on since the last post I tossed up with a photo-diary of running Cat 5e cable out to the “Incubator”. The first of a couple of projects I’ve been working on was ...

Three Reasons Music Theory Could Help Your Mix

April 24, 2012 Dave

You’ve heard of all the pre-mix “rituals” and administrative things that you’re supposed to do before you mix … haven’t you? You know, all those things about organizing your tracks, editing your tracks, putting in ma...

Tethering the “Incubator”

March 25, 2012 Dave

Say “No” to Stock Responses

January 09, 2012 Dave

Over the past few days, I’ve been able to kind of sit on the proverbial “other side” of the boss’s desk. Instead of me pounding the pavement and knocking on doors offering my wares, I’ve been (the “boss”) enter...

Silence Can Be Creative

December 13, 2011 Dave

When mixing tracks, I don't always take the view that I HAVE to use every track I'm given. A lot of times, the impact of the song is strengthened by making (sometimes liberal) use of the Mute button.

2011 Discoveries

December 06, 2011 Dave

My second annual list of music discoveries. This list of albums were not necessarily released in 2011, but I did "discover" them over the course of the year and found myself listening to them repeatedly.

Stop Hiding Under Covers!

November 26, 2011 Dave

Alright, what is going on? I’ve been noticing an annoying “trend” happening the past few months. Artists and labels are starting to re-hash old material and releasing albums of cover songs more and more frequently. Don’t get me ...
