Ep 4 Orchestras and Classical Instrument...

About this episode

Remember last episode when we said we would land in the concept of Season 3, answering listener questions, well we screwed that up.  In this episode we answer a question that we had, about how best to go about capturing and mixing orchestral instruments, in classical environments, and also in the context of adding strings to a pop or rock act.  One would think this would be a short and simple episode, but nope, as usual, we go on and on.  This Episode features guest host Aram Piligian.
