Audio Engineering Societyconvention comes to Moscone in San Francisco October 2-5, 2008. You can check the entire program at

www.aes.org

Mastering engineer Paul Stubblebine will have a technical tour of his studio and a Platinum mastering panel will be hosted by Bob Ludwig.

And this best workshop of all:

Revolt of the Mastering Engineers
Sunday, October 5, 2:30 pm — 4:00 pm 2008
W12

Mastering engineer Bernie Grundman has started a label, Straight Ahead Records, to record music he and his partners like in a straight-ahead recording fashion, and is putting it out on vinyl. Greg Calbi and the other mastering engineers at Sterling have started a vinyl label. A couple of mastering engineers, Paul Stubblebine and Michael Romanowski have started a re-issue label putting out music they love on 15 IPS half track reel to reel (www.tapeproject.com).

What’s behind this trend? Why are mastering engineers giving up their non-existent free time to start labels based on obsolete technologies? What does this say about the current state of recorded music?

Come on down to the AES if you can.
