Re: Recording Engineering

What food? Seriously, when working with pros and outside clients the food is pretty good. Just far apart, everyday, it's what ever you can find nearby.

I should mention that I was part of the team that developed stereo for US TV. We started out making our own stereo VTRs and simulcast with FM stations. When we didn't like dealing with New York network policies on audio compression and auto gain devices, we got involved with an independent engineering group and developed BTSC audio. We were pushing hard for Dolby A noise reduction in the L-R channel but the committee settled on DBX. So we did all the on air testing and were the first on the air with stereo way back when.
On a sad note, one of our transmitter stereo engineering team just died this week. Don Geigner was a good friend, fellow ham and a great transmitter engineer. He taught me a lot.
