Hello, Recording Fans,

I had a great interview with Ronan Chris Murphy on Tuesday night.

Here are some interesting quotes from the conversation, which will all be included in the March 2012 issue of Recording Magazine:

On influences:

“Neil Young is the reason I got into music; if I had to choose one style to produce, it would be singer/songwriters.”

On being a musician and how it helps his work as producer/engineer:

“I'm mainly a guitar player... I can't play violin, but I understand the instrument and some of the technical challenges and palate of options.”

On recording Terry Bozzio's drums:

“My goal was to see how few mics I could use; he had 16 toms, 4 bass drums and 40 cymbals; I probably used 13 channels total.”

 More soon!
