Hello Everyone, Mr. Rude is back with another point of interest for those us who love sound and the way it works but first I would like to thank all of you who have viewed my blog and posted comments, I appreciate! Today, I would like to continue with some basics in audio that I feel are very important in understanding how sound travels in our environment. "Sound Propagation" is the term that is used to describe how sound travels through air and how it affects the air molecules around us. With out these air molecules the bass coming from the car passing by would never reach our ears because it's these molecules that carry the sound to us. In this video, sound propagation is explained in a way that may be elementary to some but completely alien others. You will hear words like like compression and rarefaction but don't worry about these terms right now. I'll explain those in a future post. Thanks again to those who view my blog and I hope that you get something out of this clip. Remember you can always comment and send me questions at any time. PEACE

3D- Human Ear

Hey Everybody, this is my fourth post and I thought that I would switch it up a bit and get a little technical, informational, and educational for those who are just beginning to get into audio. To begin to understand the wonderful world of audio, I felt that it would be a good idea to post a short clip of how the ear deals with sound pressure which intern is turned into what "hear" on a daily basis. Now I know that this may be a bit elementary for those of us who already understand how sound works but again I think that this is good for those of you who are just starting out. I hope that you enjoy and I would appreciate some feed back. Thanks again for viewing my blog and I'll talk to you soon. PEACE!!!

Explaining The beginning influences of Mr. Rude

This interview was done at The Illinois Institute of Art-Chicago's loop campus audio suite. The basis of this interview was to explain the beginning of my musical love and interest. In the interview, I talk about when I first felt that "buzz" for performing and how it basically paved the way for where I am today and where I want to be in the future. I feel like this is a small window into my past that not to many know and I enjoy sharing it with those who share my same passion for everything music. I want to thank Regina Williams for asking such great questions. She opened up memories that I hadn't thought of or spoken about in years. I also want to thank all of you whom have shown an interest in this blog and I look forward to sharing more of myself with you in the future. Thanks again, PEACE!

Introduction

Hello everyone, this is Mr. Rude. It's a beautiful day in the Chi-City. This blog is set up to discuss different aspects of the recording/mixing processes that are currently trending across the country and around the world. There are many different styles of the recording and mixing process from New York to L.A. to London. Many different techniques for recording and mixing are being used today especially with the advent of the D.A.W (Digital Audio Workstation). But in order to completely understand the actual processes of making a song sound good and professional, there are many things that need to be known. In this blog I will post a some tips that I have personally taken the time to learn and some articles from industry books and magazines that will help the beginning audiophile understand the inner workings of music. I will leave this blog open for any discussion that comes to mind to anyone that is interested in making music and getting it to sound the best and getting out to the world so that people can here it. Please feel free to comment at anytime or don't. Thanks to anyone that decides to jump into the conversation! PEACE
