Mike Pedero Workshop Attendance!!!

[dequi09]

(too much OT) Sir Kedy, musta na po ang Asiatec Pink Noise? Do you still remember me? I'm the apprentice of the late Tata Jun Reyes. I never had a chance to revisit the studio after Tata Jun's unexpected death..

Back to topic: Sir Mike, I'm looking forward for April 26 seminar on PCEC.

God Bless us all!

Sir Kedy is now with GMA Records.

[dequi09]

Oh my, I'm so outdated (This must be the setback of being a corporate slave).

Thanks Sir Marvs for the info..

[kedysanchez]

Sir Kedy is now with GMA Records.

Yes dequi09, matagal na akong bumalik sa GMA.  I still keep in touch with APN, though admittedly di na ako madalas makapasyal doon.

I miss those times na magkakasama pa tayo nina Sir Marvin sa premises ng Pink Noise, at magkakasama pa tayong kakain sa restaurant sa baba.

[dequi09]

OT:
Oh, the Entre cafe owned by the daughter(?) of APN owner. I miss the funny antics of Chito (Parokya) when someone attempts to sell his Boss Octaver to the Band. Chito says "Oh pano, bibilhin ba natin itong Octaver, eh May pa lang ngayon? LOL. May of 2001 used to be my OJT in APN.

[skin]

haha...kulit talaga ni Chito!

[iwaheed_drummer]

mga sir!!!! meron pa ba nitong seminar na ito??? imvery interested to learn bout recording and everything that is related to i..

thanks!

pls pm me if merong mga seminar...

[mylividmoon]

Ok ito ah!

[Boddhisattva]

Haha...you just couldn't help it, could you, Kit....

But wait, A&W wasn't where Club Dredd used to be.  That used to be the old D'Mark's !!! A&W was nearer that area na may dating Fish Market along EDSA (mas malapit nang kaunti sa Farmers).  The other A&W was in UN Avenue. Dayrit's of course is an alltime favorite. They are now here along Mother Ignacia tapat ng ABS.  They closed the one in the Morato rotonda after the Cochise Beebom/Antonio Sanchez incident (remember?).  Don't know if the one near La Salle Taft is still there.

Boy, am I hungry. 

Boy, aren't we really old!

Boy, we are really OFF TOPIC! Sorry. 

Sorry pa rin, hilig din kasi ako burger. Ngayon pinakagusto ko na mozarella burger sa Cafe Breton

[audio-e]

Sir Mike,

Open pa ho ba ito? Please count me in sir!   

audio-e

[mikep]

I might open up one soon, especially on mixing and use and understanding of equalizers and other outboard gear.  I have had a lot of queries from people, most especially from Churches.  I could zero in on live mixing - from mic use to final mix. 

At the moment I am training some audio engineers of a major TV network.  The first batch is to graduate this month.  I could use the same training modules for Church use.  If anybody is interested, let me know.

Regards,

Interesting... I would love to see your syllabus with this course.

this would be great sir. i've attended one of your lectures in PCEC and got tons of very useful info considering it was just a 1-day course. hope the next one would be spread over a few sessions.

[dantuts]

its been a while sir mike, been waiting for this for years na. i was part of the first batch. count me in if ever this will push through.. hopefully maging full course na ito.

Hi, KitC.  Very simple syllabus.  It starts off with The Physics of Sound - an understanding of how sound is produced, behaves, characteristics, etc., as received by the ear (psyco-acoustics) + safety issues on hearing.  Next is a full discussion on the microphone, which is the start of the acquisition portion and how sound is transduced from acoustic to electronic and vice versa, characteristics and types of mics; discussion on mic techniques and usage for voice and instruments; problem areas like phasing, etc.  Then, an extensive understanding of the mixer - its various parts; setting gains, use of the auxes, and an exhaustive discussion on equalization,  characteristics and usage; understanding important frequencies that help out in mixing, etc.  Finally, effects processors - understanding them, their usage in controlling sound and suggested settings.  This includes compressor limiters, reverbs, delays, noise gates, expanders, duckers, etc.  Hands on and "ear experiences" are all part of the course.  So far, with the training I have conducted for TV, it has, to a certain extent, worked.  It is a process.  My objective is basically to plant awareness on the part of the trainees - provide them with the right foundation.  With the initial knowledge that they have acquired, they will "experience sound" and understand it more as they encounter it in their work.  The ability to appreciate audio does not happen overnight.  It takes some time to "acquire the taste," ika nga.  They are to exert effort to train their ears to "listen and hear," their most important instrument in audio.  As long as the right foundation is planted, correct practices follow.  My work is done.

can't wait for this one, sir mike, last time i heard you was 2006 pa po. suggestion po sana na in as much as you mentioned church people making the queries on audio and considering the fact that they volunteer their services to the church, baka po pwede na mas mababa ang fee for them. a handful of volunteers from our church have been sent in similar seminars (including yours po) in the past but in as much as learning audio is a long process and not just a 1 seminar thing, it would help a lot to make it affordable for them to continue their learning. perhaps a written recommendation from the church or something similar can be required to avail of any discount for legitimate church volunteers. hoping you'll consider this thanks po.

We've been waiting for this, when do you think will this happen and how much would be the fee.
Meron po ba mga practical exercises? thanks
