Dave Sinko - Capturing Sound for Punch Brothers and Edgar Meyer
Description
My guest this week is legendary sound engineer Dave Sinko.
Dave joins me to talk about his 17 year collaboration with Punch Brothers, including running their live sound, from using mics and pickups on every instrument, right down to single mic shows (and most points in between).
We also chatted about Dave's long standing collaboration with Edgar Meyer, recording some of the most influential records in all of acoustic music, including Uncommon Ritual, plus why building a racing yacht is very similar to building a mandolin (who knew!) and why he prefers the term 'recordist' to engineer.
This was such a fascinating conversation. Enjoy!
