Sound System Design & Optimization with Bob McCarthy
In this episode of Sound Design Live I speak with the author of Sound System Design & Optimization and the Director of System Optimization at Meyer Sound, Bob McCarthy. We talk about variable acoustic architecture, why we must optimize before we mix, and how to prioritize our system check list. We also discuss why graphic EQs are useless, common misconceptions about stereo, the pitfalls of L/R stacked subs, why sound is so difficult to teach, tips for finding on-axis points and relative splay angles between speakers, wireless microphones for measurement, hardware and software measurement systems, and how to get what you want without humiliating the client. http://sounddesignlive.com/sound-system-design-optimization-bob-mccarthy Support Sound Design Live on Patreon for as little as $1: https://www.patreon.com/sounddesignlive
