Episode 529 – Mastering Engineer Maor Appelbaum, Song Melodies Get Simpler, And America’s Quietest Places
Update: 2024-07-16
Description
My guest this week is mastering engineer Maor Appelbaum, who’s worked with the likes of Faith No More, Yes, Meatloaf, Eric Gales, Walter Trout, Dream Theater, Sepultura, Halford, and many more.
Maor has written presets and collaborated with various plugin companies such as Waves, Brainworx/Plugin Alliance, Softube, Arturia, Leapwing Audio, Pulsar Audio and others.
He's also guested and lectured at various trade shows and recording schools, and is co-creator of the THE OVEN line of analog hardware which is modeled and emulated by Brainworx.
During our interview, Maor spoke about the different mastering requirements for different genres, common mixing problems that he sees, what he asks clients to supply for mastering, the audio gear he’s developed, and so much more.
I spoke with Maor via zoom from his studio outside of Los Angeles.
On the intro we look at song melodies getting simpler and production more complex, and the quietest places in the U.S.
