My guest is Ray A. Rayburn - Audio and Acoustic Consultant, Fellow of the Audio Engineering Society, and Member of the Acoustical Society of America. His audio "specialties" include legislative sound systems, church sound & acoustics, acoustic measurements, audio DSP programming, standards development for the AES and InfoComm.
Check out Ray's articles, resume, and business selling mics and such: Superlux Microphones.
We discussed a TON including:
- Attending monthly AES meetings in NYC early in his career.
- In 1984, Ray's involvement in upgrading Saturday Night Live's control room from mono to stereo.
- In 1992, Ray's involvement in installing the first all digital sound system in the world in the US Senate Chamber!
- A huge mix-minus setup with 100+ inputs and 100+ outputs!
- Settings drift - due to temperature and age.
- What should new podcasters know? Minimize the sound of your room's noise and reflections. Get the mic close to your mouth. Use pop filters/windscreens.
- Speech intelligibility is dependent on 2 things - BG Noise and Reverb.
- Wireless mics - mic, transmitter (limited power), receiver
- Tiny microphones
Thanks for being a great guest, Ray!
