Depends if you are talking about the importance of sound engeneering logically or if you are talking about it as in it's your favourate thing.

Darkwing you do have a point but we do all love recorded music aswell as live (:

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-11, 17:33

Oh yes, I'm just arguing the point that a sound techy isn't always needed to make good sound.

by jls1233 2011-01-11, 18:18

Definatly but they can improve the quality of the sound. It's simply to take distractions away so that people can focus on how good the music is.

DW I hope you realize that a building can make or break any sound scape that is why having a sound guy is useful

by jls1233 2011-01-12, 00:55

ooooooo, i think band members are useful to make music too (:

Say one doesn't play in a building

then it is a whole new acoustic arena, there are huge number of factors to take into account. The idea of a sound system is not just to make it loud but to enhance and spread the sound evenly. for example in a orchestra a double bass will only have a short range while a violin with a dominant high mid range will have a long range thus a hot spot/dead spot occurs in some areas. by adding a sound system not only can you negate the dead spots but you can also start to remove hot spots by balancing things out.

But that's not what we're debating. You said basically, nothing good can come sound wise, namely musically, without a sound guy. I said you're wrong, good sound/music can be had even if there is no sound guy or sound tech involved.

by Jtull 2011-01-12, 16:41

my point works and your point works.

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-12, 16:44

Sure, whatever ends this discussion Smile

by Jtull 2011-01-12, 16:57

that was what the intention was Smile

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-12, 17:07

Okey dokeys.

So....what was this topic originally about?

by Jtull 2011-01-12, 17:19

the best songs of 2010 although it seems there were none.

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-12, 17:20

Ah, so let's discuss a better year, 1938. Benny Goodman Carnegie Hall Concert FTW

by Jtull 2011-01-12, 17:22

I don't exactly remember that nor do I know much about it.

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-12, 17:26

I break my anti-pirate/free music (though this wasn't pirated)

For those so inclined, this is the concert (the most famous in Jazz history I do believe) It is very much incredible and I'll see if I can find a typed out version of the history of the concert and it's transition to CD, it's a pretty cool history

Disc 1
Disc 2

by Jtull 2011-01-12, 17:28

I would be interested in reading it if you can find it.

by **Darkwing** 2011-01-12, 17:31

I'll just scan the insert when I get a chance, I can't seem to find it so far on google

by Philly Homer 2011-01-12, 19:00

No best song of 2010? I disagree. Heartily.
