Did you know that moving the microphone one inch in any direction can dramatically change the tonal characteristics and quality of your recorded sound?
The greatest classical recordings all share the same key components:
Quality of Performer, Instrument, Repertoire, Venue & Engineer
When I refer to ‘great’, I am referring not only to the performance, but the presentation of which the performance is inherently enmeshed. After-all, sound is the medium of music and so it should come as no surprise, that the quality of a sound recording, will impact the listener’s perception of the performance and music.
Instrumental Impact on Performance.
As musicians, we seek the best sounding instrument we can afford because music is organized-sound, and because the higher quality instrument will provide us with a greater depth of tone and a higher level of execution.
Aural Context & Why the recording venue matters:
Consider the sound and experience of performing in a bedroom or stuffy-studio setting vs. a fine concert hall or church. The sound that we hear while performing affects not only our expressive sensibility, but that which is captured by the microphone, and it shapes the quality of our performance as heard by the audience at the other end of the recording.
A great recording saves the artist money & time with excessive post-production and the life-long dissatisfaction associated in an inferior product.
