SUMMARY:Ask the Experts - All About Mastering
DESCRIPTION:What is a Mastering Engineer\nMastering audio is the final step in the creative process of recording and is the first step in the distribution side of music. People often wonder what exactly a Mastering Engineer does. There is a lot that goes into mastering audio including the use of digital and analog tools\, applying and adjusting EQ\, Compression\, Limiting\, Stereo Enhancement\, and more. Mastering also allows for the chance for the project to have fresh ears. Mastering Engineers work closely with the artists\, producers\, and other engineers to reach the desired sound. \nHere is your chance to ask the questions you have about Mastering. \nJoin us on January 9 at 11 am PST \nRegister here and Post Your Questions\nModerated by \n Ainjel Emme is a musician\, songwriter\, and producer. She has spent the past 20 years immersed in the study and practice of record production\, shadowing world-class audio engineers\, working in professional studios\, and making records via her Los Angeles-based production house\, Block of Joy. \n\n  \nMastering Engineers\n\n\n\nJett Galindo – Mastering Engineer at The Bakery\n\nJett began her engineering career in the world-renowned Avatar Studios in New York as the recording engineer for producer Jerry Barnes. As Barnes’ engineer\, Jett engineered for veteran artists such as legendary singer-songwriter Roberta Flack\, Nile Rodgers and Latin Grammy-winning Brazilian rock band Jota Quest. \nIn 2013\, Jett joined The Mastering Lab family as the sole right-hand man to pioneer mastering engineer and Grammy Technical Achievement awardee Doug Sax. Under the steady mentorship of the late Sax\, Jett burgeoned to become the newest mastering engineer in The Mastering Lab roster. In 2014\, Jett’s work with Brazilian rock band Jota Quest garnered the group a Latin GRAMMY nomination for Best Brazilian Contemporary Pop Album. \nWith engineering credits spanning different genres and legendary artists (Bette Midler\, Randy Travis\, Nile Rodgers\, Roberta Flack\, and Gustavo Santaolalla\, to name a few)\, Jett Galindo carries on the legacy left behind by her late mentor\, mastering legend Doug Sax (The Mastering Lab). She now works as a mastering engineer alongside Eric Boulanger at The Bakery\, located at the Sony Pictures Lot in Culver City\, Los Angeles. \n\nAnna Frick Mastering Engineer at Airshow Mastering\nAnna is a mastering engineer and the restoration center manager at Airshow Mastering in Boulder\, Colorado. Her work encompasses studio albums\, live recordings\, reissues\, and compilations across an array of formats\, old and new\, and a wide variety of genres and styles\, from bluegrass and folk-influenced acts to rock and New Age projects. Legends like Ralph Stanley and Doc Watson\, exciting contemporaries such as Billy Strings and GRAMMY-nominated Wood & Wire\, and important blues and jazz archival recordings have all benefited from her uncanny ear and deft touch. She balances her strong instincts and intuition with her technical experience and each client’s goals to finesse every project she tackles. “[A band has] been working on their album for quite a while by the time I hear it\, and it’s their vision – their baby – that they are putting out into the world. I don’t want to impede that vision. Ultimately\, I want the music to move you.” \nFor Airshow’s restoration center she oversees all archival digitization projects. She mastered Third Man Records’ GRAMMY-winning box set\, The Rise and Fall of Paramount Records\, as well as having mastered thousands of hours’ worth of historical recordings from university archives and collections across the country. Each project is unique\, with a singular story and special considerations: “[It] involves everything from understanding the recording medium\, the equipment\, and the transfer process to having the tools and the knowledge to tackle all sorts of bizarre problems. Understanding digital audio files and how to maintain file integrity over time.” \nAnna holds a degree in Music Industry Studies from the University of Colorado at Denver. She is a graduate of the International Bluegrass Music Association’s Leadership Bluegrass program\, an AES member\, board governor and Producers & Engineers Committee Co-Chair of the Recording Academy – San Francisco Chapter\, and chapter head for Colorado’s branch of SoundGirls.org. \n\nPiper Payne – Mastering Engineer at Infrasonic\nPiper is a mastering engineer based in Nashville and Oakland\, CA. She recently merged her studio Neato Mastering with Infrasonic. Piper holds a BFA in Audio from The University of Michigan and continued her graduate education in audio at the University of Stavanger in Norway. She has apprenticed under some of the best-known Mastering and audio mentors in the world\, including Bob Katz in Orlando and Micael Romanowski in San Francisco. \nPiper is a Trustee of the Recording Academy and she serves on the P&E Wing Steering Committee and the Advisory Council. She is a Governor of the Audio Engineering Society and she is Co-Founder and Co-Chair of the AES’s Diversity & Inclusion Committee as well as an active member of Women’s Audio Mission and serves on the Board of SoundGirls.

SUMMARY:SoundGirls / AES “How To Submit a Paper” Webinar January 15
DESCRIPTION:SoundGirls / AES “How To Submit a Paper” Webinar\n\nAs we strive to change the race and gender balance of panels at academic conferences\, we have been reaching out to underrepresented groups to invite submissions as part of our larger call for papers. We find that sometimes people just don’t know where to begin\, and it’s time to change that! \nJoin panelists Leslie Gaston-Bird\, Jamie Angus\, and Bert Kraaijpoel for a walkthrough of how to submit an abstract\, précis\, and paper to an academic conference. \nSoundGirls / AES “How To Submit a Paper” \nJan 15\, 2021\, 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM (England) \n\n\n6:00 PM to 7:00 PM (England)\n1:00 PM to 2:00 PM (Eastern)\n12:00 PM to 1:00 PM (Central)\n\n11:00 AM to 12:00 PM (Mountain)\n\n10:00 AM to 11:00 AM (Pacific)\n\nRegister and post your questions here\nPanelists Include\nLeslie Gaston-Bird\nLeslie Gaston-Bird (AMPS\, M.P.S.E.) is the author of the book “Women in Audio”\, part of the AES Presents series and published by Focal Press (Routledge).

Her interest in audio was crystallized at age 11 when she visited the WOR studios in NYC on a school trip in 1967. After this she was hooked\, and spent much of her free time studying audio\, radio\, synthesizers\, and loudspeakers\, and even managed to build some!\nAfter secondary education in Scotland\, in 1973 she attended the University of Lethbridge in Alberta Canada. There\, in addition to her studies in physics\, music\, computing\, drama\, philosophy\, and english composition\, she repaired their VCS3 synthesizer\, and so obtained coveted access to the electronic music lab. \nShe then studied electronics at Kent (UK) doing her BSc and Ph.D. there from 1974 to 1980. During her Ph.D. study\, she became interested in A/D conversion\, and worked on a sigma-delta approach\, but had to give it up to concentrate on her Thesis topic of designing a general-purpose Digital Signal Processor. After her Ph.D.\, she joined Standard Telecommunications Laboratories\, which invented optical fibres and PCM. There she worked on integrated optics\, speech coding\, speech synthesis\, and recognition in the early 80s\, and invented a novel 32kBits speech coding method. She has been active in audio and acoustic research since then. \nShe was appointed as the BT Lecturer at the University of York in 1983\, to develop the first integrated masters (Meng) in Electronic and Communication Engineering in conjunction with British Telecom. She then co-created the UK’s first Music Technology course in 1986 when it was considered a “silly idea”! She is the inventor of; modulated\, wideband and absorbing diffusers\, direct processing of Super Audio CD signals\, and one of the first 4-channel digital tape recorders.
