Tuning in Situ: Articulations of Voice, Affect, and Artifact in the Recording Studio TUNING IN SITU: ARTICULATIONS OF VOICE, AFFECT, AND ARTIFACT IN THE RECORDING STUDIO A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by William Owen Marshall January 2017 © 2017 William Owen Marshall TUNING IN SITU: ARTICULATIONS OF VOICE, AFFECT, AND ARTIFACT IN THE RECORDING STUDIO William Owen Marshall, Ph. D. Cornell University 2017 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines practices of digital vocal tuning in the fields of audio engineering and music production. Drawing on an ethnographic study of two Los Angeles recording studios, it accounts for the recorded voice, and the tools used to shape it, as a collective sociotechnical accomplishment. It begins by tracing how recording engineers have historically thought about and worked with “emotion,” specifically with respect to its relationship between the studio’s technological artifacts and the voice of their client. It goes on to examine two major digital tuning tools – Auto-Tune and Melodyne – in terms of their initial development and the different technological prescriptions they brought to the technological problem that would eventually come to be known as “pitch correction.” It first traces the ways that recording engineers developed for working with, problematizing, and repairing digital tuning techniques understood in terms of a “covert” and “corrective” approach. It then looks at the various ways that pitch correction was repurposed as an “overt effect,” primarily by non-engineers such as songwriters, performers, and listeners. We then “zoom-in” an instance of corrective tuning as an interactional accomplishment that draws upon techniques of inscription, repetition, and inflection. The remaining chapters take as their starting point the distinction between “place” and “time” theories of pitch perception in psychoacoustics and signal processing, in an attempt to thicken and ethnographically respecify the ways that place and time are structured and performed in-studio. This respecification provides a more adequate understanding of how the objects of digital tuning are practically constituted in two senses. The first of these is the topical structure of the recording studio, or the way that studio life is performed through various acts of place- making. The second concerns the temporal structure of studio life, taking up the various ways of keeping, making, and marking time in the studio. In the Appendix I develop the concept of the “shibboleth ” as a complementary concept to boundary objects and boundary work, as well as a new way of thinking about the mutual production of social and perceptual difference in STS. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH William Owen Marshall studied political science and global studies at the Barrett Honors College at Arizona State University, where he also worked at the Consortium for Science Policy and Outcomes and served as the Music Director for KASC 1260 AM. After college he produced radio stories for Chicago Public Radio’s Vocalo.org project. He began his graduate work in Science & Technology Studies at Cornell University in 2010. Following his PhD he will work as a Postdoctoral Scholar in The Science and Technology Studies program at UC Davis. He plays music. He grew up in Utah. v Dedicated to my mother, the musician, and my father, the engineer. vi ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation would not have been possible without the thoughtful, generous, and patient support of my committee members, Trevor Pinch, Rachel Prentice, Mike Lynch, and Steve Jackson.

I can still remember when and where I first heard it: twelve years old, sitting in the passenger seat of my parents’ car in a grocery store parking lot, listening to Top 40 radio. My childhood obsession with stage magic was fading (not a moment too soon) and I was in the beginning stages of what would be a prolonged interest in weird- sounding music.1 The sound of Cher’s voice during the second word of the pre-chorus of her song “Believe” (“I caaaan’t break through!”) seemed to bridge those two interests readily. Though I did not much care for the song itself, I was captivated by that particular sound as an instance of sheer production. It reminded me of the sound of a dial-up modem, or the sounds you hear when you call a fax machine by mistake. It was like listening in on the conversations machines have when humans are not around. 2 It sounded like a voice being possessed by a demon or infected by a computer virus, or like the musical equivalent of the scene in Terminator 2 where Arnold Schwarzenegger peels the fake skin off of his forearm and reveals a metallic skeleton.

  • “Until That Song Is Born”: an Ethnographic Investigation of Teaching and Learning Among Collaborative Songwriters in Nashville
    “UNTIL THAT SONG IS BORN”: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC INVESTIGATION OF TEACHING AND LEARNING AMONG COLLABORATIVE SONGWRITERS IN NASHVILLE By Stuart Chapman Hill A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Music Education—Doctor of Philosophy 2016 ABSTRACT “UNTIL THAT SONG IS BORN”: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC INVESTIGATION OF TEACHING AND LEARNING AMONG COLLABORATIVE SONGWRITERS IN NASHVILLE By Stuart Chapman Hill With the intent of informing the practice of music educators who teach songwriting in K– 12 and college/university classrooms, the purpose of this research is to examine how professional songwriters in Nashville, Tennessee—one of songwriting’s professional “hubs”—teach and learn from one another in the process of engaging in collaborative songwriting. This study viewed songwriting as a form of “situated learning” (Lave & Wenger, 1991) and “situated practice” (Folkestad, 2012) whose investigation requires consideration of the professional culture that surrounds creative activity in a specific context (i.e., Nashville). The following research questions guided this study: (1) How do collaborative songwriters describe the process of being inducted to, and learning within, the practice of professional songwriting in Nashville, (2) What teaching and learning behaviors can be identified in the collaborative songwriting processes of Nashville songwriters, and (3) Who are the important actors in the process of learning to be a collaborative songwriter in Nashville, and what roles do they play (e.g., gatekeeper, mentor, role model)? This study combined elements of case study and ethnography. Data sources included observation of co-writing sessions, interviews with songwriters, and participation in and observation of open mic and writers’ nights.

And with that short declaration she made herself arguably the most engaging black celebrity.’ uperheroes are a dime a dozen, or, if you prefer, ten a penny, on Planet SAmerica. Superman, Batman, Captain America, Green Lantern, Marvel Girl; I could fi ll the rest of this and the next page. The common denominator? They are all white. There are benevolent black superheroes, like Storm, played most famously in 2006 by Halle Berry (of whom more later) in X-Men: The Last Stand , and Frozone, voiced by Samuel L. Jackson in the 2004 animated fi lm The Incredibles. But they are a rarity. This is why Will Smith and Wesley Snipes are so unusual: they have both played superheroes – Smith the ham-fi sted boozer Hancock , and Snipes the vampire-human hybrid Blade . Pulling away from the parallel reality of superheroes, the two actors themselves offer case studies.

    1 1 2 2 3 9AM I’m sad to say that I’m dedicating this first couple of songs here to our dear friend Stan …you know him as Stan the Hot Sauce Man….whose Mom Marion passed away yesterday…Now we got to know Marion here on BWTB quite well…as she came hung out with us more than a few times She also made me that British Flag quilt blanket And BWTB pillow…that we often talked about…she came down to all the events at Capitol Records…Just Imagine shows…everyone loved her…and she will certainly be missed…and here is Marion’s favorite Beatles song. 3 4 The Beatles - If I Fell - A Hard Day’s Night (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John and Paul John Lennon’s stunning ballad “If I Fell” was by far the most complex song he had written to date. It could be considered a progression from “This Boy” with its similar chord structure and intricate harmonies by John and Paul, recorded – at their request – together on one microphone. Performed live on their world tour throughout the summer of 1964. Completed in 15 takes on February 27, 1964. Flip side of “And I Love Her” in the U.S. On U.S. album: A Hard Day’s Night - United Artists LP Something New - Capitol LP The Beatles - In My Life - Rubber Soul (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocals: John with Paul Recorded October 18, 1965 and written primarily by John, who called it his “first real major piece of work.” Of all the Lennon-McCartney collaborations only two songs have really been disputed by John and Paul themselves -- “Eleanor Rigby” and “In My Life.” Both agree that the lyrics are 100% Lennon, but John says Paul helped on the musical bridge, while Paul recalls writing the entire melody on John’s Mellotron.

    Writing to Reach You: The Consumer Music Press and Music Journalism in the UK and Australia Marc Brennan, BA (Hons) Creative Industries Research and Applications Centre (CIRAC) Thesis Submitted for the Completion of Doctor of Philosophy (Creative Industries), 2005 Writing to Reach You Keywords Journalism, Performance, Readerships, Music, Consumers, Frameworks, Publishing, Dialogue, Genre, Branding Consumption, Production, Internet, Customisation, Personalisation, Fragmentation Writing to Reach You: The Consumer Music Press and Music Journalism in the UK and Australia The music press and music journalism are rarely subjected to substantial academic investigation. Analysis of journalism often focuses on the production of news across various platforms to understand the nature of politics and public debate in the contemporary era. But it is not possible, nor is it necessary, to analyse all emerging forms of journalism in the same way for they usually serve quite different purposes. Music journalism, for example, offers consumer guidance based on the creation and maintenance of a relationship between reader and writer. By focusing on the changing aspects of this relationship, an analysis of music journalism gives us an understanding of the changing nature of media production, media texts and media readerships. Music journalism is dialogue. It is a dialogue produced within particular critical frameworks that speak to different readers of the music press in different ways. These frameworks are continually evolving and reflect the broader social trajectory in which music journalism operates. Importantly, the evolving nature of music journalism reveals much about the changing consumption of popular music. Different types of consumers respond to different types of guidance that employ a variety of critical approaches.

  • The Frequency Element: Using the Equalizer
    Chapter 7 The Frequency Element: Using The Equalizer Even though an engineer has every intention of making his recording sound as big and as clear as possible during tracking and overdubs, it often happens that the frequency range of some (or even all) of the tracks are somewhat limited when it comes time to mix. This can be due to the tracks being recorded in a different studio where different monitors or signal path was used, the sound of the instruments themselves, or the taste of the artist or producer. When it comes to the mix, it’s up to the mixing engineer to extend the frequency range of those tracks if it’s appropriate. In the quest to make things sound bigger, fatter, brighter, and clearer, the equalizer is the chief tool used by most mixers, but perhaps more than any other audio tool, it’s how it’s used that separates the average engineer from the master. “I tend to like things to sound sort of natural, but I don’t care what it takes to make it sound like that. Some people get a very preconceived set of notions that you can’t do this or you can’t do that, but as Bruce Swedien said to me, he doesn’t care if you have to turn the knob around backwards; if it sounds good, it is good. Assuming that you have a reference point that you can trust, of course.” —Allen Sides “I find that the more that I mix, the less I actually EQ, but I’m not afraid to bring up a Pultec and whack it up to +10 if something needs it.” —Joe Chiccarelli The Goals Of Equalization While we may not think about it when we’re doing it, there are three primary goals when equalizing: To make an instrument sound clearer and more defined.
