The Art and Honesty of Jazz Record Making (Botti pt. 3)

In this episode, Botti delves into the intricacies of making jazz records authentically and contrasts it with live performances. He discusses his decision to avoid becoming “just another jazz musician” by learning from artists like Leroy Hargrove and the incomparable talent of Wynton Marsalis. Insights are shared on the significance of studio engineering, exemplified by the quality of Miles Davis's 'Kind of Blue' versus live recordings. We also touch on the technical aspects of live and studio setups, including the use of compression, EQ, and iconic microphones.Episode highlights:01:34 The Art of Record Making03:27 Live Performance vs Studio Recording04:36 The Role of Engineers and Sound Quality05:38 Technology and Equipment in Music Production08:19 Microphones and Iconic Recordings**Mastery Is Within Reach.
