Mixing, June 2009: Celebrating 13 years since my first Pro Tools session.
Unfortunately folks, the post will not be back up.
Despite my best attempts to keep a clear cut delineation between my fantastic day job at Key Code Media and Michael Kammes dot com; my post appears to have blurred that line and ruffled some feathers. Therefore, the post is down to keep the peace.
I appreciate the support and keep reading!
I never read the post, but I appreciate the conundrum. I’m struggling with a similar kind of issue regarding having sponsors or not when evaluating products from those sponsors and their competition. Sure looks like you can’t have it both ways.
Tis a complete shame, but that’s the trade-off, I guess – for being in the industry and not just a “user”.
On another note (and more for the people who are seeing this after the post-fallout, or re-visiting hoping for an update), it seems my post is being taken way out of context, after it was picked up and blasted all over the interwebs. While I did repeat a rumor (paraphrasing a verbal comment an associate made, perhaps the emotion of the conversation was lost in translation), 90% of my post was more of a soap box on the possible ramifications of the rumor – not the 100% accuracy of the rumor.
Suffice it to say I can’t say much more (now) – my plan was to generate discussion on the ramifications – not the validity or 100% accuracy of the of the rumor. Tis also a shame, because I think I made some good points on the ramifications – the loud echo, as it were – and now I’ll have to save them to repeat on some other post!
