In the swamps of Jersey
I got a call from a theatre I work with to mic, mix and record this show. It was an interesting to say the least. What I enjoyed most about the gig is I was working with instruments I don't get much of a chance to record. The group is a classical Indian orchestra. Orchestra sounds big but it was only 4 people. Mridangam (drum) wood flutes, violin and vocal. The vocalist is rather famous in India. I don't remember his name but I do know he worked on one of the George Harrison albums. The group played with a Indian dancer. It was a beautiful show. Anyway give it a listen and let me know what you think. It was recorded direct to disc from the Mackie board. It's only a 1 minute clip taken from a 3 hour show. I think I had my fill of Indian music for some time.

Clean enough sounding mix.

A little strident in the upper mids but otherwise sounds about right for the genre.

It almost makes me want to get out my old Beatles record where they let George do a track in that style on Sgt. Pepper but, then it's late and I'm getting sleepy.

Good night! :)
