Anyone know how to contact Trident Studios Tape Op Ron Goodwin. Moved to Italy after the 60s I think. Or tape op Graham Platt from Abbey Road studios. Writing a book on the Beatles wanted to request interview.

For everyone who might be interested, but tagging Kurt (Kurt Foster ) in particular, because of his love for analog...

Just a not-so-random share on the birthday of a silent genius. Of course that's a relative term, but whatever.

Enjoy the thoughts

Today people would be using autotune on Paul. There is obvious pitch issues here but its also part of Paul's sound, as is with all singers. imho, its the song and performance that makes a song, not autotune

Also, the room sounds pretty bad to me in comparison to what I would want today. Its interesting hearing this. The room sound defines "dates" the generation.

Is there a book that explains the recording techniques that the bealtes used?

Thanks!

Have any of you bought them? Heard them in a good environment? Read any reviews that you trust?

I heard a nasty rumor that the new releases are going to be overly hot. I sure hope not. That would ruin the sound of those old recordings. Anyone in the know about this?

I noticed that they pan to the drums all the way to either left or right
Why did they do that?

Now the drums in todays modern recording are set right in the center besides cymbals and crashes etc..

Why is this?
