Quote of the Day

“With any acoustic instrument that you record, you have some kind of ambience happening. Any electric instrument, when it’s direct, doesn’t have any ambience at all. So for me the challenge is not to try to simulate the acoustic sound, but to simulate some of the aspects of an acoustic sound.”- bassist Michael Manring

track (audio term)

On analog tape, a track is the line of magnetization caused by a single record head as the tape passes over the head during recording and is read by the playback head during playback. In digital audio, this metaphor is continued in the GUI, although a track is no longer a strictly linear entity.
