Atlantic Public Media’s Executive Director, Jay Allison, has this to say about an excellent new Transom article by our TOOLS guru, Jeff Towne:
Our team at Transom (Atlantic Public Media) produces The Moth Radio Hour, and we get a lot of requests for help with recording live events. Request fulfilled. Jeff Towne has created a wonderfully comprehensive guide, with a focus on live storytelling. He runs down microphone options, placement, routing, mixers, audience micing, mono, stereo, redundant recorders, the works. It is destined to be a go-to guide for this kind of audio gathering.
