SOUND ON SOUND: 27+ Years as the Trusted Independent, Global Voice of Music Recording Production and Technology show

Summary: In this month's podcast, Technical Editor Hugh Robjohns and Editor In Chief Paul White pay a visit to previous Mix Rescuee Kate Ockendon (October 2010) to test out various mics to help her find the right one for her voice. In Tech Talk this month, Paul and Hugh continue the microphone theme with a discussion of why female vocalists get artefacts on their vocal recordings. There's also a run-down of the highlights from the April issue of the magazine. Reader questions answered this month include: * Do I need a big guitar amp to create a big guitar sound that sounds impressive in the studio? * What's the difference between algorithmic and convolution reverb, and how do I know which to use? * What's the difference between a condenser and a capacitor mic?
