Nope. I don't recall him. I moved from there to Florida in 1996, so I may have missed him completely. The sound man that I always felt was the best there was Bonnie Raitt's brother Steve. He was a tremendous sound guy and always with the best bands in town. He died a few years ago of brain...

Thank you very much. I really appreciate that. I love doing that kind of work and just wish I had more of it going on here.

Live recording is something that I very much enjoy doing and, so far, my "customers" have been very pleased with the results. I only wish I could do more of it. I started doing this in the mid '70's (believe it or not in Minneapolis) for a couple of years and had to leave it behind when my...

I do location recording whenever I can. This is somthing that I really enjoy doing, so I make a good offer to the bands in the area here and, when done, most love the work. I use a couple of Presonus products for the recording (a Firestudio, actually two of them, and a Digimax FS). My typical...

Silly me and my spelling. :) IF I recall correctly, I installed an early digital delay and a plate reverb among other things. No pets at all though. ;)

One of my old customers when I lived in Minneapolis and was in the pro audio business signed to Warner Brothers records in the '70's as an artist and self producer. This guy did VERY well and became VERY famous eventually. I believe that he produced every album that he ever released on each...

I use a pair of Presonus Firestudios (the 26x26 input one) and a Presonus Digimax FS for location recording. Works quite well, although I've never needed to use them all at once, usually only requiring about 15 channels or so at a time. I like the units, but their service is not that good if...

Look what I found. ;) lol This was a bit before I signed an autograph for him (probably 1979 or so).

Many years ago Bobby Vee was a customer of mine. He was intested in a wireless mic at one time so I laoned him a high end one to try out at a concert. He was one of the best guys in the industry, just a good guy that everyone liked personally. He was, believe it or not, playing in the club...

LOL. I grew that beard first when I was about 20. I had it before I got into the audio business and was actually working in the back office of a brokerage office. The funny thing is that I could have it there, wearing a suit everyday, but I couldn't have it when I started driving a cab in...

Nah, I've posted a few different places in the past and you may have seen it in one of those. ;) That night I was recording a seven piece rock band to 4 track live. A real challenge. Some of it turned out quite well considering, but it was much tougher back then than it is using current...

Born in '49. ;)

Is that a Sunn mixer? ;)

Me doing location recording in 1975 or so. You can hear one of the songs recorded to a "portable" 80-8 here if interested: 2. Location Audio Services | Richard King Media The bottom song was from the mid '70's. The other songs on the page are last and this year. The studio in the same time...

Congrats on the similar history to me, youngster. :) I started recording bands in the mid '70's and decided a couple of years ago to try again, after MANY years off. My first recording was with an Ampex consumer machine, then a Teac 3340 and Tascam 80-8. I loved doing it and then got hired...

That is a good deal if it all works. I could drive up the road 150 miles and pick it up. ;) I think not though.

See if you can find a Tascam Model 1 out there. That's what I used to use YEARS ago.

Anyone want some lightning pix? I have, in the past, taken them on a semi regular basis: lightning Photo Gallery by Richard King at pbase.com For some reason I am alway facinated by them and sometimes the pix even turn out good.

I've always been a believer in multitrack recording live project. I started doing this in the 1970's and am starting to get back into it again. I've got some tracks here: 2. Location Audio Services | Richard King Media if you are interested in listening in to them, one from the '70's and the...

Some location stuff from 1976 until today. Click on "2 Location Audio Services" and enjoy some of the stuff. I'd love to do more, but there's just not enough business here to support it. I started recording in Minneapolis area in '75 or so. The early recording was an 8 track (Tascam 80-8)...
