Sennheiser
"Unplugged" Session: A conversation
with recording engineer and Inventor George Y. Massenburg
Presented by:
George Y. Massenburg,
George Massenburg Labs
Sponsored by
Sennheiser Canada
George Massenburg is a legend in the
recording industry. His innovations include the introduction of the
parametric equalizer in 1972, and his work on preamplifier design,
dynamic range controllers, and other engineering equipment has also
led the field for years. His contributions to audio engineering go
beyond mere tools: as recording engineer, mixing engineer, and as a
producer, his name is on some of the most important records ever
made. And he has the Grammy Awards to prove it.
George Massenburg's engineering and
producing credits include Billy Joel, Kenny Loggins, Journey,
Madeleine Peyroux, James Taylor, Randy Newman, Lyle Lovett, Aaron
Neville, Little Feat, Michael Ruff, Toto,
The Dixie Chicks,
Mary Chapin Carpenter, and Linda Ronstadt, among others (see the
discography page for a more complete list). He has been
nominated many times for the non-classical engineering Grammy
(including a nomination in 2001 for the Mary Chapin Carpenter's
"Time*Sex*Love"), for Record Of The Year in several years, and has
won Grammys as producer for Linda Ronstadt's 1996 "Dedicated To The
One I Love" and another for Best Engineered Non-Classical Record in
1990, for Linda Ronstadt's, "Cry Like A Rainstorm, Howl Like the
Wind." In 1998 he received the Grammy for Technical Achievement, one
of only four such awards presented in the history of NARAS. He also
won the Academy of Country Music award for Record Of The Year in
1988 (for "The Trio"). In 1989, he received the Mix Magazine TEC
Awards for Producer and Engineer Of The Year (for Little Feat), as
well as Engineer Of The Year Award (for Linda Ronstadt) in 1991, and
1992 (for Lyle Lovett).
Not only is he credited as the
creator of the parametric EQ, and makes his own superb (hardware,
not software) audio gear as
George Massenburg Labs, he has partnered with Digidesign,
offering Massenburg DesignWorks EQ plug-in for Pro Tools, that let
you bring some of that top-notch sound into the software realm.
Check Mr. Massenburg's complete Bio
on at his web site:
http://www.massenburg.com/c/gml/bio.html
or
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Massenburg
Mr. Massenburg will share his vision on the sound recording
industry, the challenges, his pet peeves, and conclude
with a discussion on new trends before he opens the mike to the
audience for them to ask any questions related to about anything in
the audio industry. |

Connecting Remotely Anywhere
Presented by Denis Dion

studio, a correspondent reporting from Afghanistan, a reporter on
the scene of a breaking story, a technician monitoring a remote
transmitter, or a spirited talk-show discussion with phone-in
panelists and callers, the demands on connectivity for broadcasters
and producers have dramatically increased. Now the same technology
connecting the desktop or mobile device to your favorite network
provides the potential for an “anything/anywhere” audio path.

There's no question that the
digital age is here today. Analog television is off the air;

video conferencing systems feature HDMI/DVI outputs exclusively.
Your existing analogue AV distribution systems won't work for
much longer. Crestron DigitalMedia™ (DM) is the only solution
that answers the challenges of tomorrow – today.
Crestron Electronics will be introducing its new DigitalMedia™
Solution and explaining the “HDMI” terminology of today's
digital world; what obstacles that HDMI brings to the table –
such as High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP), what
restrictions HDMI presents and how a DigitalMedia™ system will
resolve at these problems.
