To gain ords are "compatible" without using out the decoder, while the high end/ cilities, would be "intensified." "I'm sure we'll sit down with them and deal with their problems specifically once they've told them to us," he explains. Said Teller, "We want the copera- tion and the support of the people at the mastering studio level and we will take steps to achieve it. "We're going to hold meetings with them. It's to everyone's benefit to have maximum education." According to Teller, there has not Lee Herschberg been sufficient experience yet at the Director of Engineering studio level, to justify criticism. Warner Bros. Records Teller, Records Group vice president of operations on the deputy president's staff, heads the CX program. Charges that the CX introduction is an "anti- digital" move were labeled as "patently absurd" by Teller. "It is in no way anti- digital," he argued. "We are a software corn - pany, we are a music company, our product is the music produced by our artists." The CX system, which takes the "companding" approach to noise reduction, requires the installation of a $99 decoder in the home. The encoding of the album, taking place in the cutting room, is claimed not to affect undecoded sound quality but critics dispute this compatibility claim. Teller goes on to say that he is "amazed at the vehemence of reaction" to CX lately "generally based on extraordinarily limited experience." A recent CBS /WEA joint statement indicated that all future WEA releases would be CX- encoded. Al McPherson, chief engineer at "i kie Lee's voice can go fpm a whisper Warner Bros.

West Germany

Just as in Britain, the recession started to affect record sales in Germany during the past year. This year, as a result, areno German publishers are feeling a financial squeeze. 'With interest rates in Germany Rudi Slezak, president of Hamburg -based Rudolf Slezak around 13 %, and having to pay 162/3% Musikverlage, says: "Although business is still good for a few companies, the German market has been largely affected by of the gross income to local lyricists accident. the recession.

Willem Van Kooten "It's become quite intolerable. Advances are still sky -high and, with royalty splits now reduced, we are bound to lose money." Slezak feels that owners of U.S. catalogs have been hit by the recession back home and are trying to make up for lost revenue by asking for heavier deals from German publishers. "Even when you get a good royalty split, you find the small print and the conditions have become tighter. You have to get permission to do everything, except go to the bathroom." The potential for obtaining covers in Germany is limited now because many important German artists, production

companies and publishers have formed themselves into self - contained units, almost like a "closed shop" in a trade union. But, says Slezak: "With good pop or MOR material you can still get a few covers."
