Together At Last in Real Space & Time .... Again
This conversation explores the importance of being together in the same room and the difference between recording separately and being together. It also delves into the evolution of music recording, the immersive experience of being together and the perceived sound vs. the perfect sound. The challenges of digital conversations and the importance of in-person conversations are also discussed.
Being together in the same room allows for immediate feedback and a more authentic experience.
Recording separately can result in a more controlled environment, but lacks the spontaneity and dynamic of real-time collaboration.
The evolution of music recording has led to a more perfect, curated sound, but may lack the human element and context of playing with other musicians.
Dolby Atmos provides an immersive audio experience that can enhance the perception of sound.
The perceived sound is different from the perfect sound, as our analog brains perceive sound in a biological, non-digital way.
Digital conversations present challenges in maintaining a natural conversation flow and interrupting each other.
In-person conversations are valuable for building relationships and understanding how others interact.
Having an earnest conversation in person can lead to a more organic and engaging conversation.
