Re: [arr] John McLaughlin on AM studios
wow...John Mcloughlin working in our Boss's works? which one could it be??? 2008/8/11 Madhavan Rajan [EMAIL PROTECTED] It's a fabulous environment with a beautiful Neve 88R mixing board, a perfect sound system, and PowerMac G5s all over the place, as well as engineers that know Logic inside and out, says McLaughlin. Ranjit, Louiz, and I were in the main room, and Sivamani and the soloists were in the isolation booths, though we could see each other. The quality of the environment put the New York studios I've been in to shame. I'd record at A.M. studios again anytime. We recorded the album live over five days. The only exception was Hadrien Feraud, who wasn't available for the sessions. He visited me afterwards and I had him listen to the music, plugged him into Logic, and away we went. His parts were mostly first takes because he's absolutely outstanding and very sensitive to the music. http://www.guitarplayer.com/article/john-mclaughlin/may-08/35319 Our boss is always the best and he always uses the best!

Nevermind ARR's brilliance for modern compositions, nobody can touch him when it comes to period film scores.

The celeb this week was singer Srinivas... (I guess he was the guest last friday too, but i couldnt listen to last week's show coz i was out of town) (as usual, please excuse if there are inaccuracies. typing this mail from memory) Srinivas: Minsara Poove from Padayappa was the song that brought about a change in my life It brought in lot of recognition and people started knowing me... Though I had sung a few songs previously, the songs had become famous but I hadnt got enough recognition... This song gave me that!! I was called in to sing the track for the song The entire song tune was ready... but initally, the pallavi (antara) of the song was different It was a very soft starting for the song unlike the energetic opening that we have now... the inital antara was not Minsara Poove... The words were something like sowkkiyama kanne... sowkiyama (Sings that tune)(***that tune is very different from the minsara poove that we know, and is also different from Sowkkiyama kanne from sangamam in case you are wondering if it is the sangamam song that u r talking about!***) Then Nithyashree came over for the recording, and Rahman asked me to teach her the tune as I had already practiced the tune It was an honour and even when Nithyashree asked ARR about some doubts in the tune, he just asked her to consult me... I was moved by the confidence he had in me...!!! Mangalyam song (Alai payuthey) is one of the most auspicious songs and I always start my concerts with that song! That song was composed n recorded in about 5-10 mins!!! It was close to midnight and Rahman was playing some chords and he suddenly hit upon this tune!! and immediately we recorded... It was already decided that we will have Mangalyam Thanthuna as lyrics for the song as it suited the situation The endrendum punnagai lyrics was written by Rahman himself... HE has contributed the opening lyrics of many more songs!! After I was recognised as a singer, and I started singing for lots of other composers, i felt that it's been a long time since i had sung for Rahman - even harmony or tracks... So, I wrote a mail to Rahman saying i wanted to sing for him - even if it was harmony or tracks.. And I got a very sweet reply from him - 'When God has given you wings, why do you want to crawl? I'm really happy that you have established yourself as a leading singer...' Keep listening to all Rahman classics... I would say 99% of all songs that Rahman has composed are Classics!!

[arr] Re: Whats missing in ARR
mr bharath, by far your entry into this discussion was what i was waiting for...sensible,fact-rich and logically unbiassed between north and south music industry. great stuff man! do send our collective love to our Guru when you see him next! --Balamurugan Ramakrishnan-- --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, Bharath Venkatesan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: That is an interesting discussion going on here, but I think, we need to take few steps and take a brief look at the workflow employed by both ARR and HJ and try to understand the perceived sound quality differences. ARR's tracks go directly from his Logic Pro on Digidesign platform into either Euphonix System 5 or Neve 88R which then gets recorded back into Pro Tools. Most of the mix or creating space for every instrument in the song, takes place at the Euphonix/Neve level. Now you have to understand that, System 5 is a digital console whereas Neve 88R is a vintage sounding modern analog console which introduces its own sound/distortion to the mix. Part of western music industry loves this vintage sound and describes the crystal clear digital sound as lifeless. The songs we heard few years ago were all mixed totally either on Euphonix System 5 or completely in the box on Pro Tools, whereas the new ones are probably done fully on Neve which gives a different sonic characters, which few of you describe as not clear. I absolutely trust ARR/H. Sridhar's choice to use a particular gear to achieve the sound they have in mind. Now, somebody mentioned HJ having Euphonix MC and mentioned that it was advanced. I actually found it bit funny, no offence intended of course. From a simple man's viewpoint, Euphonix Media Applications controller, which is what HJ has, is a powerful keyboard and mouse, which offers lot of short cut keys, knobs, jog wheels, buttons etc, which improves the time you take to do certain operations on programs like Logic Pro, Pro Tools. I have used MC few times and HJ himself showed me things, he feels, help him do things efficiently. Simply put, HJ's gadget doesn't have onboard signal processing as the big brother version installed at ARR's studio. With HJ's workflow, it is slightly different. Everything is recorded and mixed directly on Pro Tools. If you look at Digidesign's website, you can see that he has ICON, which is a powerful controller for Pro Tools, but doesn't have onboard signal processing. Instead, it uses high quality plugins/tools that are available from within Pro Tools for sound processing. Once the sound enters the computer, it stays digital until the end. So you feel that it is clear, as there is no distortion introduced anywhere in the signal chain, as compared to the effect Neve has on songs mixed at ARR's studio. With Guru, I think, it gets much more complex, when the tracks are brought from different studios across the world (e.g. Phase one Toronto, and may be some studio from Mumbai). Each session might have had different microphones, different recording techniques, engineers etc and the responsibility to make it sound even/good, falls on mixing engineer's shoulders. Having met both, being fan of both and, H. Sridhar, being my indirect mentor, I will refrain from judging which one is better. I like both and of course, I would feel proud and earn more bragging brownie points, if ARR mixes everything on Pro Tools. Apart from this whole technology gizmos, as somebody else pointed out, orchestration/arrangement matters a lot. With ARR songs, there are so many things happening that I learn something new, every time I listen to it. So, personally, I don't really bog myself down too much on the sound quality and trust the judgment of professionals doing the job and just enjoy the music they create. Disclaimer: BTW if anyone thinks or knows that I am totally wrong on the technology side of things, please let me know. These are few things I picked up when I had the privilege of meeting the greats and I very well could have misunderstood. I really admire your concentration, if you really read each and every line so far :) -- :: Bharath http://singingphotons.net
