The Society of Composers & Lyricists in New York is producing an event next week – Wednesday, November 2 – at Sear Sound on live recording, designed for working composers and producers.
“The Insider’s Guide To Live Recording” will feature producer/engineer and musician Gary Maurer – the chief engineer and co-founder of Saltlands Studio in DUMBO and founding member of HEM – and Sear Sound’s chief engineer Chris Allen in discussion with SCL member Greg Pliska.
